13. This double sided square cookie cutter set will survive years of use and abuse.
14. I love these pretty camera straps from KnittyBitties so much that I have purchased four. No sense in looking drab while taking cookie pics!

24. Every cookier needs a plain white platter like this one from Target for displaying their cookie art. PS-It’s on sale for ten bucks, so buy it now!
25. The only bad thing about these adorable cookie themed shirts from Captian Leisure Tee’s is choosing just one. Luckily, you can get 15% off any Cakey&Bakey tee using the coupon code SUGARB {valid until midnight 12/9/2012} so get yours NOW!
26. Silpat doesn’t need a lot of explanation. Bakers love it. Buy it for them. The end.
27. I’ve never made springerle, but if I had a rolling pin like this one from King Arthur Flour, I just might.
28. I’ve had my eye on this cookie jar from Antrhopologie for a long time. Looks like he has his eye on me too!
29. You can never have enough cake stands. This pink Rosanna Bon Bon Cake Stand from Layla Grace makes me swoon, and your cookie decorator will too.
30. Bakers represent! These awesome state aprons from Uncommon Goods will let everyone know where your heart is!
31. This lightweight half-height bun pan rack is easy to assemble and the best way to conserve valuable counter space.
32. I am kinda obsessed with the 12-Days of Christmas, so this copper cutter set designed by Lila Loa {sold by Copper Gifts} is definitely at the top of my list.
33. Okay, a Kitchen-aid mixer is pretty much the mother of all Christmas gifts for the baker in your life. The only question is what color to choose.
34. If Kitchen-aid is the mother of all Christmas gifts, then this Canon EOS Rebel T31 is the father. Like I said, beautiful cookies deserve beautiful photos and this camera will help. This bundle comes with everything you need to begin taking great photos.
35. If your cookie baker is making a lot of cookies, a Kopykake projector will definitely make things easier on them. Check Jerry’s Artarama for great deals and free shipping promotions.
36. I haven’t stopped thinking about these cookie molds since my friend Ali pointed them out. I don’t know whether to use them or hang them as decoration!
37. If I could have anything this year it would be a Silhouette Cameo. I am dying use it to make custom cookie stencils to suit my every whim. Oh, Santa, I have been REALLY good this year!
38. This Pegasus professional airbrush system is an easy way to add color and dimension to all of your cookie designs.
39. Cookiers always love books. They’re informative and inspiring. My top picks are: Ultimate Cookies by Julia Usher, Decorating Cookies by Bridget Edwards, The Complete Photo Guide to Cake Decorating by Autumn Carpenter, The Art of Royal Icing by Eddie Spence, Sugarbaker’s Cookie Cutter Cookbook by Diana Collingwood Butts and Carol V. Wright, and Sugarlicious by Meaghan Mountford
40. And if all else fails, gift cards are WONDERFUL. These are my favorite places to shop:
- Ecrandal
- Copper Gifts
- Off the Beaten Path Cookie Cutters
- The Cookie Cutter Company
- Karen’s Cookies
- Country Kitchen Sweet Art
I hope this helps you find the perfect gift for that special cookie decorator in your life. Happy shopping!

Love this cookie gift roundup! Thanks too for sharing my book, Callye. So appreciated! Have a wonderful holiday season!
Thank you, Julia!
I can’t beviele I’ve been going for years without knowing that.
I could read a book about this without finding such real-world approaches!
Sugarveil mats! You forgot Sugarveil mats!
I saw that kitchen towel in the Sur la Table catalog and it’s so cute! I see that I need to make a trip to World Market pronto!
These ideas are all fabulous! Attention friends – You could get me anything off this list and I would be ecstatic! 🙂 I followed the blog that Lila Loa did, so those 12 Days of Christmas cookie cutters from Copper Gifts would really be cool!
I would love to have many of these but my favorite would have to be art of royal icing and birch drinking straw, I’m really love the birch trees this winter.
Great wish list! Santa, please, read this post 😉
Some weeks ago I made springerle cookies and cupcakes using cookie molds like your number 36 and adapting the recipe of House on the Hill. In case you want take them a look ^^ http://ifeelcook.es/springerle-cookies-and-cupcakes/

On my wish list is a dehydrator and a bag sealer, but can’t go wrong with these items listed either. Would it be wrong to want to add Press N Seal to my list?

Oh Santa, I don’t think I can wait until Christmas for these terrific gifts…
