Marcato Biscuit Cookie Press Design Line, Green. MADE IN ITALY, 20 Shapes, 2 Cookie Sizes, Anodized Aluminum, Easy to Use & Clean, Fast Homemade Cookie Maker

It was time for a replacement cookie press so I did some research. Marcato came up near the top of all the reviews (and prices!). I was tending towards a different less expensive brand when an extremely good cyber Monday offer popped up. I did a test batch using my old faithful spritz cookie recipe rather than the one in the video and manual. I'd say it was a success. I did follow the manufacturer's suggestion to chill the cookie sheets (on the cold back porch since my fridge isn't wide enough for my cookie sheets). Pros: Easy to use. I roll the dough into a cylinder and insert it into the barrel. The plastic handle extension is sturdy, feels comfortable in the hand, and provides more leverage. There are two size choices for each click of the handle and the cookies were well formed. It was also easy to make extended sections of dough for the wreaths. Reviews say this press accommodates the heavier dough for cheese straws, but I haven't tried that yet. Except for the handle extension and pressing disc, the press is entirely made of metal as are the cookie dies. Cleaning is pretty easy (hand wash only) as very little dough remains in the cylinder. However, some dough does get stuck in the grooves on the back side of the pressing plate which can be a bit fiddly to clean. Cons: The hefty price if you don't get a discount. Also, be careful not to drop as the leading edge can dent on a hard surface. Bottom line: I'm happy I hit the buy button.

The Marcato Biscoti Maker is a fantastic tool for creating beautifully shaped cookies with ease. The quality is outstanding, made from solid anodized aluminum, ensuring durability and precision in every press. The variety of cookie patterns is impressive, with 20 different disc shapes, allowing for endless creativity in baking. The weight is just right, providing a sturdy feel without being too heavy to handle. For the price, it’s an excellent investment, offering professional performance at a reasonable cost. Cleaning is simple, with easy disassembly and a smooth surface that wipes down effortlessly. Using this for Christmas cookies was a joy! Everyone loved the different shapes, making holiday baking even more special. If you’re looking for a reliable biscuit maker that delivers consistent results, this one is a must-have!

Loved this cookie press. Great quality and price. Used it every Christmas, cookies turned out great.

All 3 of my cookie presses failed me this year - Electric, battery operated and hand press - while making Christmas cookies. I purchased this one after doing some research. It works really well.. It takes a bit to get a good rhythm going but when I did, the press worked really well. I had to take away a star because the dough barrel is a bit too small. A full barrel doesn’t even fill a cookie sheet. The one tip I would give anyone is to watch the video Amazon has in the product description. It’s important to load the barrel as the video shows. I used my own butter cookie recipe and I was able to roll my dough and insert into the barrel as the video shows. The first time I loaded the dough I didn’t do it the way the video describes and it affected the way the press worked.

This is the first cookie press that I have ever owned so I can not compare it to others but I can list why I liked it so much: • It is well made! Metal and isn’t flimsy. Quality made! • It is easy to clean. Smooth edges on the tube, the handles, the press disks and everything else the dough comes i to contact was smooth and made for easy, quick, hand washing. • I bought the blue and it is a gorgeous color. Doesn’t hurt to enjoy looking at the items you’re using in the kitchen, right? Makes it fun when baking. • I followed tips on Pinterest to chill your cookie sheets, don’t use parchment paper, and to make a fairly firm dough. • The recipe for a basic butter cookie dough in the booklet that comes with it was good tasting and enjoyable. Though I must admit again, I used a recipe I found on Pinterest as a go-to recipe as well as experimenting with my own recipes (shown in images is a custom made pumpkin-spice recipe that was hit with all of my family on Thanksgiving). • I loved the variety of disks that it came with, too. Something for holidays and for every-days, and with experimenting some could be used for almost every holiday. Plus you can make cookies of almost every shape from round, to oblong, to fancy flowers, trees, and stars. All-in-all this product has exceeded my expectations as to what it was going to be. It is a quality made product and I am very happy with my purchase!

The Deluxe Marcato Biscuit maker is wonderful. It arrived a day early! The Marcato Biscuit maker allows you to choose between small cookies & larger cookies. You get 20 types of cookies to press. I also have the Basic Marcato Biscuit maker which I have used many times. The Deluxe has a long handle that you connect to the metal handle to make it easier to press out the cookies. Plus, this is made in Italy!! NOTE: I made my spritz cookies this week using the Deluxe Marcato cookie press. The plastic handle that connects to the deluxe makes pressing the cookies so much easier. Next week I plan to make more cookies using the this press. I am very happy with it.

I've been through at least 4 cookie presses in the past decade, all of which have been relatively expensive and supposedly high-quality". After losing yet another one this past Christmas, I decided to spend a bit extra in hopes of not having to replace it next year. I've used this press 4 times now and it is absolutely fantastic. The press is easy to use, easy to clean, and the different plates are easy to change out. With the other presses I've used (and owned) in the past, it usually took a few tries before depositing a "full-sized", even/symmetrical design; with this press, however, it will dispense the shape correctly the first time and keep dispensing evenly until there's no more dough left. This makes this press not only less frustrating, but also improves the overall quality of the cookies because you're not having to scrape partially deposited or uneven dough off your baking sheet so that it can be run back through the press, a process common with the other presses I've used. Ultimately, this makes for a final cookie that has a better texture and noticeably more tender (having to reload the other presses with dough thats already gone through the deposited further develops the gluten in the flour and toughens the cookies). Since most recipes for dispensed cookies are heavy on butter, it's important the dough stay cool and not be handled excessively so the butter does not begin to melt. The reliability and design of this press means your dough will stay cool, the butter won't begin to melt from spending too much time at room temp or as a result of the need to load the dough into the press over and over again as is the case with other cookie presses.

Very pleased with the Marcato Biscoti Maker. I like the way the top and bottom screw on, seems to be good and sturdy. It's easy to grip the handle and cylinder. It's a replacement for an earlier style one by Marcato that I wore out making cheese straws. Cheese straw dough is heavy and requires a sturdy press.

Foi um dos melhores produtos que já comprei. Está ajudando demais em minhas produções

Its nice and sturdy

So much better than two I had before for $20.00

Simplemente lo mejor. Regale otra y ha sido muy buena

Hypra heureuse! Aussitôt reçu, aussitôt essayée.. J’ai eu de nombreuses presses à biscuit sur les 20 dernières années et chaque fois j’en ai été dégoûtée de les utiliser tant c’était hasardeux et inconstant niveau résultat.. La plupart du temps je finissais à la poche à douille et je reléguais la presse dans le fond d’un placard! Cette fois c’est une vraie réussite.. J’ai visionné la vidéo sur YouTube (video mise en ligne par la marque) et des que j’ai reçu mon paquet je me suis lancée! Résultat plus que parfait!!!! J’ai pressé les biscuits direct sur une plaque à pâtisserie. C’était simple, rapide, sans mauvaise surprise! La recette est très bonne (un peu trop sucrée à mon goût mais mes enfants ont adoré!).. J’ai fait une bonne 50aine de biscuits taille 2 avec une dose de leur recette de base. Et 3mn avant de sortir les biscuits (en forme de fleur) j’ai mis un callet de chocolat au centre et ai remis les biscuits à cuire 3mn! Top! Je suis enchantée!!!
