Cookie stamp with cutter - Christmas sleigh

A sleigh full of Christmas spirit: this stamp gives you a sleigh with curled runners, fir branches in the back and a big bow at the front. You get the stamp and a cutter of about 8 cm in exactly the same shape. In ivory with green branches it suits any elegant Christmas table.

What does the Christmas sleigh stamp look like?

A sleigh with curled runners, a bunch of fir branches in the back and a big bow with long ribbons at the front. The design is wider than it is tall, which looks lovely next to the upright shapes of the collection.

The sleigh belongs with Christmas wreath, Christmas bauble and Christmas tree. For a gingerbread version there is Gingerbread sleigh.

What is in the Christmas sleigh set?

You get the stamp with a sleigh with fir branches and a big bow 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.

How do you create an elegant Christmas table?

This Christmas collection by Le Monde de Mely is classic and understated: wreaths, baubles, a Christmas tree and a sleigh, with big bows. The photos show them in ivory and dark green, and those calm colours are what make them so elegant. They suit a Christmas dinner, a hamper or a thank you for your customers. In my Christmas packaging you will find matching boxes and ribbon.

How do you gift these cookies beautifully?

Give a single cookie in the white cookie box with shop window: the window shows off your fondant straight away. For a set, choose the white letterbox cookie box with a clear lid, which even fits through the letterbox. A bow of green and gold satin ribbon matches the ivory and dark green perfectly. You will find more options in my cookie boxes and in the cookie bags and cookie cards.

How do you use the Christmas sleigh 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 fir branches in dark green and stamp the sleigh in ivory. Keep the bow ivory or make it red for a classic Christmas look. 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

What is the difference with the gingerbread sleigh?

This sleigh has fir branches and a big bow and belongs to the elegant Christmas collection. The gingerbread sleigh has a garland of dots and belongs to the gingerbread collection.

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.
