How to Order a Custom Cookie Cutter in Australia
Have a shape, name, logo or design that does not exist on a shop shelf? We can 3D print it to order in our Lake Macquarie studio. Here is exactly how the custom process works, what to send us and what to expect.
Most cookie cutters come in a fixed set of shapes. The moment you want something specific, a business logo, a particular animal, a wedding monogram or a name, the standard options run out fast. That is where a custom cutter comes in.
Because we design and 3D print every cutter ourselves in Lake Macquarie, NSW, we are not limited to a catalogue. If a shape can be drawn, it can usually be made into a cutter. This guide walks through how to order one, from sending your idea to having it arrive at your door.
What We Can Make as a Custom Cutter
Custom requests come in all shapes. These are the kinds of designs we are asked for most often.
How to Order, Step by Step
The whole process is simple and there is no commitment until you approve a quote. Here is how it runs.
- Send us your idea Head to our custom cookie cutters page and tell us what you have in mind. A clear photo, sketch or design file helps us understand the shape straight away.
- We review and quote We check the design works as a cutter, confirm size options and whether you want a cutter, a separate embosser stamp or both, then send you a price.

How to Give Us a Great Brief
The clearer your request, the faster we can quote and the closer the result will be to what you pictured. A good brief usually includes a few simple things.
- A clear reference: a photo, sketch or design file showing the shape you want
- The finished size: roughly how big you want the cookie to be, in centimetres
- Cutter, stamp or both: whether you want the outline cutter, a separate embosser stamp for detail, or the pair
- How many: a single cutter or a matching set, and any bulk quantity
- Your deadline: the date you need it by, especially for an event
What Affects the Price
Every custom cutter is quoted on its own because no two designs are the same. A few things shape the final price.
- Size: larger cutters use more material and print time
- Detail and complexity: fine detail and intricate outlines take longer to design and print
- Cutter, stamp or both: adding a separate embosser stamp adds a second piece to the order
- Single or set: a matching set costs more than a single cutter, but works out well per piece
- Quantity: bulk and wholesale runs are priced differently to a one-off
We always confirm the full price in your quote before anything is printed, so there are no surprises.
Check the Ready-Made Range First
Plenty of people ask for a custom cutter when a ready-made shape already covers it, which is faster and cheaper for you. It is worth a quick look through the range before you commit to custom. Here are a few popular ones.

How do I start a custom cookie cutter order?
Visit our custom cookie cutters page and send through your idea with a photo, sketch or design file. We will review it, confirm the details and come back to you with a quote. Nothing is charged until you approve.
What is the difference between a cutter and an embosser stamp?
A cutter shapes the outline of the cookie. A separate embosser stamp presses detail or lettering into the surface of the dough or fondant. They are two separate pieces. You can order either on its own, or both together for a fully detailed design.
Can you make a cutter from my logo or artwork?
Yes, as long as you own or have permission to use the design. Send us your artwork and we will work out the best way to turn it into a cutter or embosser stamp. We are not able to reproduce trademarked or copyrighted characters and logos that are not yours.
How much does a custom cookie cutter cost?
It depends on the size, the level of detail, whether you want a separate embosser stamp and how many you need. Because every design is different, we quote each one individually and confirm the full price before anything is printed.
How long does a custom order take?
Custom orders take a little longer than ready-made cutters because of the design step. We confirm the timeline in your quote. If you have an event date, let us know early and order ahead so there is plenty of time.
Do you offer bulk or wholesale custom cutters?
Yes. We make matching sets and bulk runs for businesses, events, schools and fundraisers. Get in touch with your quantity and design and we will work out pricing with you.
