We’re excited to announce powerful new tools in Cookie Design Lab that make designing and creating custom cookie cutters easier than ever. We’ve been too busy building features that the documentation and tutorials haven’t caught up!
Save Cutter Blade Settings
While the default cutter settings are good for most situations, we know that YOU know your dough the best, which is why there are so many options to customize the blade and cutter size. Whether you use different blades for various materials or rely on a go-to setup, your preferences can now be stored and applied instantly. Click the “Settings” button on the right, and save as many profiles as you need. Make your go-to the default (click the star) and it will load when the software loads. This eliminates the need to re-enter details, reduces mistakes, and ensures you get reliable results every single time—whether you’re working on one project or scaling up production.
Background Removal and Cleanup
Jumping back and forth between applications to remove backgrounds and clean up stray pixels is a thing of the past! Cookie Design Lab makes it easy with no advanced software skills required, so you can focus on baking. With our new background removal and cleanup feature, you can pull out the subject of a photo or larger illustration suitable for turning into a cutter with just a single click! Sometimes background removal and generative AI images leave stray pixels that need to be cleaned up, so we added the “Color Distance Threshold" setting: increase the value to clean up stray pixels to get a clean outline of your subject. This feature is still in Beta, so expect it to improve over the next few months and please send feedback. We have a video here of the feature in action:
Create Custom Cookie Stamps
The highlight of this release is our most requested feature, stamps! Now you can design, customize, and generate unique cookie stamps directly in Cookie Design Lab. Personalize treats for birthdays, weddings, holidays, or even brand your business with custom logos and lettering. With this feature, turning your creative vision into edible art has never been easier. Check out the Stamp Design tab to play around with it today, or check back soon for a video demonstration of stamp creation and updated tutorial shortly!
