Alsace – what a beautiful region! Its landscape, culture, storks and gastronomy... no wonder it is one of the French regions that should not be missing on the "To-Go List"! Vera has lived in Alsace for many years and she is in love with its traditions. She understandably came up with a collection of metal cookie cutters inspired by this beautiful region!

Bake small cookies in the colours of Alsace! There are many symbols of Alsace – storks, pretzels, bundt cakes and last but not least the traditional Alsatian figures.

 

If you think about a season that is connected with Alsace the most, it is undoubtedly winter. The most popular events in this region such as St. Nicholas Day (December 6) or Christmas markets begin in December. Christmas markets in Alsace are usually open during the entire month of December and they bring together many tourists from all over the world to experience their unique and magical atmosphere. For this reason, Vera has designed the collection of cookie cutters dedicated to Alsace, in which all the traditional Alsatian symbols can be found. 

 

Check out our cookie cutters set "We love Alsace" that you can now buy at a reduced price (for only 15 € instead of 17 €). This set includes 6 metal cookie cutters such as Alsatian couple, stork (typical of the region), gingerbread man, pretzel and small, festively decorated heart. You will also get a small gift for free: a disposable piping bag and a recipe for original Bredele – the most famous Alsatian cookies! Do not forget: ChezVera.com offers free delivery on orders over 50 EUR.

Getting ready to bake traditional French Bredele

 

 

 

 

If you hear or read "Alsatian cookies", it definitely refers to traditional French Bredele. These delicious traditional Christmas treats with their fragrant aroma can of course not be missing at any Christmas party in Alsace. It’s a no surprise that our various recipes for these cookies are among your favourite ones. This is also one of the reasons why our online shop offers a rich collection of Alsace theme cookie cutters.

 

In this collection, you can find many beautiful cookie cutters such as gingerbread men that are available in different sizes. These are perfect for baking gingerbread cookies. Don’t forget to have a look at the metal cookie cutter in the shape of St. Nicholas, which is also very suitable for this type of cookies. For very popular shortcrust cookies, we recommend our cookie cutters in the shape of pretzels or cute hearts. Another highlight is the specially created cookie cutter for vanilla crescent cookies.
