The Best Biscuit Cutter

January 24, 2026

A set of 12 graduated round metal cutters. The sharp edges cut cleanly through dough without squishing, which is important for achieving good rise in biscuits.

The cutters nest together for compact storage.

Usage

Press straight down without twisting - twisting seals the edges and prevents rise. Dip the cutter in flour between cuts to prevent sticking.

Cleaning

Dishwasher safe. Hand wash and dry immediately to prevent rust.
