A round cat face with two pointed ears. It is simple on purpose: the round face gives you plenty of room to pipe eyes, a nose and whiskers, and it works as a black cat, a ginger tabby or anybody's own pet. Good for Halloween black cats, cat lovers' birthdays and pet adoption events. The cookie comes out about 72 by 80 mm.

Made with our free cookie cutter generator, not modelled by hand: we drew the silhouette, uploaded it to the tool and set the cutter size to 80 mm. The STL in the zip is exactly what the tool gives you: a 0.8 mm blade, 14 mm tall, with a 4 mm rim to press on, exported rim down so it prints without supports. The silhouette is in the zip too, as an SVG, so you can make it bigger, smaller or add a matching stamp.

Pipe the whiskers last, with a thin tip and slightly thinned icing, and pull away quickly at the end of each line so they taper.

Shown as a 3D render of the printed cutter and two cookies in its shape, not a photo.

What you need

  • Rolled cookie dough that holds its shape: sugar cookie or gingerbread, with little or no baking powder
  • A rolling pin, and two 5 to 6 mm guides for an even thickness
  • Flour for dipping the cutter, and baking paper
  • About 7 g of PLA or PETG, ideally a food-contact filament

How to use it

  1. Print the cutter as exported: rim flat on the bed, blade pointing up, no supports.
  2. Wash it in warm soapy water before the first use.
  3. Roll the chilled dough 5 to 6 mm thick between two sheets of baking paper.
  4. Dip the blade in flour, press straight down with your palm on the rim, and lift.
  5. Chill the cut cookies for ten minutes, then bake.
  6. Wash the cutter by hand straight after use and let it dry. PLA softens in a dishwasher.

Questions about this design

Can I decorate the cat cookies to look like my own cat?

Yes, the plain round face is made for it. Flood the base colour, then add patches, stripes or a white chin while it is still wet so they sink in flat. Eyes and whiskers go on once it has set.

Will the cat ears bake evenly with the face?

Yes. The ears are broad triangles with rounded tips, not needles, so they bake with the rest of the cookie. Take the tray out as soon as the tips of the ears start to turn golden.

Can I make the cat cutter bigger or smaller?

Yes. Upload cat.svg from the zip to the free cookie cutter generator and move the Cutter size slider (this one is 80 mm). You can also switch on a matching stamp there, or change the blade height and rim.
