Make dozens of cookies or pastries and decorate cakes in no time with Kuhn Rikon's one-handed cookie press. Lightweight and easy to use, this baking tool is a simple one-handed operation. With 20 different cookie discs you can make whatever type of treat your favorite cookie monsters desire--why not be adventuresome and try a new version every week? Frosting cakes is also more fun with six tips to choose from and a 6-inch see-through barrel allows you to keep an eye on how much dough or frosting remains in the barrel so you don't run out mid-cake. Included in the deal is a recipe and instruction booklet for more cookie ideas. Pinwheels, anyone? --Meg Heffernan

Product Description
Make more than just cookies using this one-handed Cookie Press. The stainless steel trigger mechanism allows easy, one-handed (whether you're left or right-handed!) cookie or pastry making using any of the 20 interchangeable discs. Included are 6 pastry nozzles for custom decorating cookies, cakes and more. Use it for filling hors d'oeuvres or piping mashed potatoes onto entrees. A see-through plastic barrel lets you quickly determine how much of the contents are left. Barrel measures 6-in. in length and 1.6-in. in width. It's lightweight and easy to handle ??? even kids will get into the fun using this versatile tool.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm IMPRESSED with this press!, May 6, 2000

By	Food Prep Fanatic "Foodie" (Port Madison, WA) - See all my reviews

I used other popular cookie presses for holiday baking and found them to be a hassle to operate and to clean, the last one I had didn't provide enough leverage to extrude the dough. Someone recommended this one from Kuhn Rikon and then I ordered it out of a catalog for 1999 Xmas cookie baking. This one is really slick. The trigger grip mechanism allows one-handed operation so you have the other hand free to cut dough or finish forming cookies. I like the see-through body so I know exactly how much material I have left. All the parts are nicely finished and it's really easy to clean. There are lots of choices of dies and tips and I found the star die exactly the right shape for Scandinavian Vannilie Kranser. This is so much better than others on the market!

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use for a first time cookie press user...., March 12, 2001

By	Rachael Ferguson (Kokomo, IN United States) - See all my reviews

I received this press as a Christmas present, and just used it for the first time last night. I have never used a cookie press before, so I can't compare it to any other, but as a first time user, I can say that this was very simple to use and very easy to clean. The cookies come out looking very professional and the extra barrel included in the box made it easy to get ready for the next batch--making the whole process very quick. I am very pleased with mine, and knowing it was this easy to use ensures I will be using it again and again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Elegant cookies fast!, October 17, 2004

By	Sherri B. - See all my reviews

I got this press to replace my old Pampered Chef one in time for holiday baking and am so glad that I did! I just finished my second batch of spritz cookies in record time. I've used four of the 20 plates so far and only had two incomplete cookies, both of which were the first press after a refill using a very intricate plate. The cookies are small and dainty-looking, but are not fragile (a problem I had with the larger cookies made by my old press). The only problem I have with this one is that the plunger is concave instead of flat, which makes the last cookie come out as a blob. Of course, there is no shortage of volunteers in my house to dispose of the "extra" dough, so it's a problem I can live with. I haven't used it as a decorator yet, but plan to in the near future. I am very glad to see that the decorator adapter takes standard tips, so I can easily use the ones I already have in addition to the ones that came with it. All in all, a great product for a great price.

Update: I used the press to fill thumbprint cookies with icing and was very pleased. The press gave me a great level of control and was easier to use than other decorators I've tried.
