About this witch hat cookie cutter
This witch hat has a tall pointed crown with its tip bent over to the right and a wide oval brim. At the default 95 mm the brim is 95 mm wide and about 24 mm deep, the crown is about 46 mm wide where it meets the brim, and the whole hat is about 89 mm tall.
The bent tip is the narrowest part, but it is still well over the thickness a cookie needs, so it bakes without burning or breaking off. The flat brim makes the hat easy to decorate with a band right where the crown meets it – the classic place for a buckle, a ribbon or a name.
Witch hats are a quick way to add variety to a Halloween plate, and they are a good canvas for piping skills: stripes, stars, moons and spiderwebs all fit on the crown. Turn a hat upside down and it even works as a party-hat cookie for a witch-themed birthday.
Size guide
The Size setting is the cookie’s longest side. This is how big the witch hat cookie comes out at a few common sizes – the generator shows the exact numbers for any size from 30 to 200 mm.
| Size setting | Cookie (width × height) | Blade | Good for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 60 mm | 60 × 56 mm | 1.0 mm | Bite-size cookies, cupcake and drink toppers |
| 95 mm | 95 × 89 mm | 1.0 mm | Default – a standard cookie, fits most gift boxes |
| 120 mm | 120 × 112 mm | 1.0 mm | Large gift cookies and centrepieces |
Dough and baking tips
Use chocolate dough for a black hat, or a vanilla dough if you plan to flood it in purple, green or black icing. Roll to 5–6 mm and chill the cut hats before baking so the bent tip keeps its curve. The brim bakes faster than the crown; if your oven runs hot, turn the tray halfway through baking.
Decorating ideas
- Flood the hat in black or deep purple, then pipe a band across the bottom of the crown in orange, green or purple.
- Add a yellow or gold square buckle on the band and a few gold stars or a crescent moon on the crown.
- Write a guest’s name on the brim in white icing for a place card, or pipe a little spiderweb on the crown.
