From shape to cookie
In the previous steps we learned how cube puzzles can be created and how they could look like.
Now we will introduce you to how to make a cookie cutter out of the puzzle shape!
First, decide on a shape using the previous app by Diego.
Next, make a screenshot of your desired shape.
Cookies, remember?
Remember that we create cookies here.
Avoid thin areas as they can get burned during baking. Or simply break if you try to get your cookie out of the oven.
As shown on the picture above, use shapes that have some thickness to them!
Take a program you can use to cut out the shape you want such as eg. Gimp, save the image.
Upload the picture to Cookie Caster! - New Cookie Caster Version
