Cookie stamp with cutter - Bento cake with bows

A cake you can hand out: this stamp gives you a bento cake with a piped border and five little bows. You get the stamp and a cutter of about 8 cm in exactly the same shape. The cake top leaves room for a name, an age or a short wish.

What does the Bento cake with bows stamp look like?

A bento cake is a small cake for one or two people, and this design shows one with a piped border and five little bows. On top there is room for a name, an age or a short wish. In white with black bows it looks just as stylish as a real bento cake.

Place it next to Oval frame with bow and Balloon with bow for a birthday set in the same style.

What is in the Bento cake with bows set?

You get the stamp with a bento cake with a piped border and little bows in relief and a cutter in exactly the same shape. Use the cutter for your cookie dough first and for your fondant after baking, so the fondant always fits your cookie perfectly. Cookies, fondant and the other shapes in the photos are not included.

Which party is this design for?

These stamps from the birthday collection by Le Monde de Mely have the romantic bow style you see everywhere right now. They suit a birthday, a sweet sixteen or a bridal shower, and look different every time in black, pink or pastel. In my birthday packaging you will find boxes to present the cookies in.

How do you gift these cookies beautifully?

Give a single cookie in the white or pink cookie box with shop window: the window shows off your fondant straight away. Baking a few in the same theme? Put them together in the pink or white letterbox cookie box with a clear lid. It even fits through the letterbox. You will find more options in my cookie boxes and in the cookie bags and cookie cards.

How do you use the Bento cake with bows stamp?

The video next to the photos shows you how it works. In short:

1. Cut out your cookies with the cutter, bake them and let them cool completely.
2. Roll out your fondant to about 3 mm.
3. Press the stamp firmly and evenly into the fondant and lift it off carefully.
4. Cut out the shape with the cutter and stick it onto your cookie with a little water or edible glue.

Tip for this design: Inlay the five little bows in black or dark pink fondant and keep the rest white. The piped border then stands out beautifully on its own, with no extra colour. To inlay several colours, press thin pieces of coloured fondant into the sections of the stamp, trim off the excess and place your base colour on top.

Why Le Monde de Mely?

Le Monde de Mely is a French brand that is hugely popular with cookie bakers: they design all their stamps themselves and print them in their own workshop. At Cupcakedozen.nl you order them together with your cookie boxes, bags and ribbon, all in one order. You will find more designs in my cookie stamps.

Material, food contact and disposal

According to the manufacturer's declaration of conformity, the stamp and cutter comply with Regulation (EC) 1935/2004 and Regulation (EU) 10/2011 for brief contact with food at room temperature. Wash them by hand in warm water and let them dry well; a soft brush gets even the smallest corners clean. PLA can warp in the dishwasher. When the set is worn out after a long time, it goes in general waste (advice for the Netherlands).

Frequently asked questions

Is this also nice for a baby shower or bridal shower?

Yes. In soft pink or light blue the little cake suits a baby shower, in white with gold a bridal shower.

Can I press the stamp into cookie dough?

It may briefly touch cookie dough, but fine details often fade during baking. For a crisp result I recommend fondant of about 3 mm.

How big will my cookie be?

The shape is about 8 cm. After baking, your cookie often turns out slightly larger than the cutter, leaving a pretty edge of cookie visible around the fondant.
