In the past, biscuits always had the same shapes. Today, in addition to stars, hearts and crescent moons, there are also skulls, seahorses and dinosaurs. A small collection.

Spitzbuben and variations on them are the best Christmas biscuits. Judith and I unanimously decided this in the latest episode of our podcast "Uftischt". You can hear which three types made it into our top four from minute 15:30.

To make sure that the pointed biscuits are a success, here are a few suggestions for cookie cutters.

These are just three of 1958 products in the category "Cookie cutters". Time to take a closer look at our range.

The simplest method: buy this bucket of 36 cookie cutters and have peace of mind for the next few years. With a p.p.A. (price per cookie cutter) of around 50 cents, it's also the cheapest option. Disadvantage: In addition to the classics star, heart and moon in various designs, you are limited to dinosaurs, leaves and animals.

These cookie cutters are definitely aimed at MAMILs (middle-aged men in lycra or middle-aged men who squeeze into cycling gear). If the Christmas money isn't enough for a new gravel bike, the biscuit mould will have to do. Let the carboloading begin.

Protecting the oceans begins in the Guetzli can. Unfortunately, that's not quite true, but I'd still rather eat shark lunches than shark fin soup.

The whole of "Jurassic Park"

Dinos are a firm favourite with children. Of course there are dinosaur cookie cutters. Not to be confused with ice hockey legend dino cutters.

For biscuits of the darkness

If you like heavy metal, this is the place to go. Or further down in the religion section, where I have linked a cross. Just eat it upside down.

Bünzli

You'd rather play Gölä than Bach's Christmas Oratorio? You put a laminated notice in the hallway on 1 January with the information that the Christmas tree on the street should "kindly" be cleared away because the public utilities will not collect it until 3 January? Aromat is your favourite spice?

Voila.

For the architecture-obsessed

Clear lines, clear shapes. If "Bauhaus" is not a do-it-yourself temple for you and you don't answer "A chocolate brand" to the question "Who or what is Le Corbusier?" in Trivial Pursuit, you can go for it here. The Guetzli dough becomes a brutalist building material.

Religious

Christmas is a festival of tolerance, which is why other religious symbols should also find their place in the biscuit tin alongside angels. Star of David, crescent moon or yin and yang are all possible

When I flew the family nest over 15 years ago, I suddenly had to cook for myself. But it wasn’t long until this necessity became a virtue. Today, rattling those pots and pans is a fundamental part of my life. I’m a true foodie and devour everything from junk food to star-awarded cuisine. Literally. I eat way too fast.
