A plump pumpkin with three lobes and a short, tilted stem. The notches between the lobes give it its ribbed pumpkin look, and the flat middle has room for a carved face. Good for Halloween, Thanksgiving and autumn harvest parties. The cookie comes out about 80 by 76 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.

For jack-o'-lantern cookies, cut the eyes and mouth out with a small knife before baking and fill the holes with crushed hard candy. It melts into a glowing window.

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

How do I make jack-o'-lantern faces on the pumpkin cookies?

Either pipe the face in black icing on an orange flood, or cut the eyes and mouth out before baking and fill them with crushed yellow boiled sweets. Those melt in the oven into a see-through, glowing face.

Does the pumpkin cutter work for Thanksgiving too?

Yes. Iced orange with a green stem it is a Halloween pumpkin; left plain in a spiced dough and brushed with egg wash it is an autumn harvest cookie that fits a Thanksgiving table.

Can I make the pumpkin cutter bigger or smaller?

Yes. Upload pumpkin.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.
