These metal cutters are handmade, and provide the sharpest of cut for a perfectly clean edge of petal or leaf. Double-seamed on top to protect fingers, and to keep shape from changing, the metal is as thin as possible, yet strong, enabling intricate subtle shapes to be formed for botanical accuracy. Used in tandem with WSA line of silicone veiners, the natural end result will mesmerize, and surpass even your own expectations of what can suddenly appear from your hands while creating the magical World of Sugar Art!
