[Sca-cooks] Cookie Cutters

[Gretchen Beck]

For the term, the OED s.v  cookie cutter says the usage is American, and dates their first quote in 1860.

Not to say they weren't used earlier, but not with that name. I have some lovely gingerbread molds; perhaps gingerbread molds and wafer irons is the place to start.

Greetings,

I have a lady in my shire who is interested in learning of any evidence in the use of cookie cutters within our time period. This is not an area I've researched.  If anyone can point me to some sources, I could share with her, it would be most appreciated.
