AUNT HOLLY The Aunt Holly Story
Every cutter is hand shaped, so we can easily offer specialty cutters crafted to meet your needs. We use pure copper cookie cutter material in our small shop. The copper is cleaned and polished but never laquered; we love the beauty of pure copper. Quality control is simple in our shop, the Aunt Holly signature must be on every cutter before shipping. Cutters are crafted and shipped within about two days of your order. Holiday rush can slow delivery a little. Holly Little had been collecting tin cookie cutters for years but wanted something a little stronger and more attractive so she started looking at copper cutters. Her husband worked for a mechanical contractor and had access to metal working tools. Since Larry had always enjoyed art as a hobby she ask him to look over her tin cutters and consider making some from copper. Then he purchased a small sheet of copper to see how his experimentation would translate to an actual copper cookie cutter. Rather than copying the tin cookie cutter designs he used the CAD system on his computer to create original designs. Holly had her own private copper cookie cutter shop. Friends and relatives started asking if they could order cutters and then calls started coming from people that had somehow seen or heard of the cutters. The bakery where Larry stopped on a regular basis (for great pecan rolls) started requesting custom cookie cutters and so on. Friends and coworkers convinced Holly and Larry that a web site should be created to offer their cutters to a larger group of friends. Hiring some one was not an option so they created http://www.aunthollycookiecutters.com themselves. Holly will be the first to say "our cookie cutters are not cheap" but the price reflects the quality and care taken in their creation. They take whatever time is required to make every cutter the highest quality and something they can be proud to present to customers and friends. |
