Biscuit cutters come in two styles. The store-bought style often comes either in small boxes with multiple size cutters or as a single cutter. The other style is homemade and improvised, often the lid to a jar. An advantage of the purchased cutters is that they have a bit of a sharp edge. This means you’ll be able to cut through not just dough, but fruit, vegetables, and sandwiches to create the special shapes that you want. They also come in round, fluted, and other shapes, whereas the lid from a jar is just round and only in a few sizes.
