Made with PLA plastic, this amazing cookie cutter figolla will be a great way to showcase your Maltese and Żejtun pride!

The Church of St Catherine (Knisja Arċipretali ta' Santa Katerina), Żejtun, is a Roman Catholic church, the seat of the archpriest of Żejtun and the mother church of various parishes established from the originally larger territory of the Żejtun parish. The Church and its complex sit in front of the Il-Gwiedi quarter, commanding views from both the Tal-Barrani and Triq l-Aħħar Ħbit mit-Torok town approaches.

Its dedication to Catherine of Alexandria dates back to an original church standing 500 metres (1,600 ft) from this site, extant from at least the fifteenth century, and was one of the eight mother churches on Malta. The church, dating from the late 17th century, was designed in the Maltese baroque style by Lorenzo Gafà. Its construction was part of an urbanisation programme in Żejtun spearheaded by Gregorio Bonici. The church is one of the most famous and most recognisable sights of Żejtun. Its dome, framed by the spires of its clock towers, have dominated the town's skyline for 300 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of recipe can I use for the cutters?

Our cutters work best with dough that does not contain leaveners to preserve the details after baking. We send out a tried and tested cookie recipe with each order!

Our cutters also work well on fondant, clay, playdough, sandwiches, soft fruit and cheese.

How do I use the stamp and cutter?

Make sure the surface of the dough is covered in flour, and dip the cutter/stamp in flour to prevent the dough from sticking to the stamp. Lightly press the stamp into the surface of the dough and release.

If using separate stamps and cutters, use the stamp first, followed by the cutter.

How can I clean the cutters?

Our cutters are not dishwasher safe. They need to be cleaned with soap and lukewarm water. If required, a toothpick can be used to clean dough out of the more detailed stamps.

Where are you located? Can I collect the cutters myself?

We are located in Bulebel, Malta, in Europe! We offer courier delivery to Malta, but if preferred, pick up from our location is also an option! We also ship internationally to all countries.
