A Bit of History...
house on the hill cookie molds allow all of us to bake beautiful cookies that are reminiscent of family, history, tradition and culture. Many of the original molds ore "presses," now in museums and private collections, were carved in clay, wood or metal and are as old as 500 years. The "picture" cookies cast from these molds were used to tell stories visually when most people were unable to read or write. They celebrate weddings, births, victories, and holidays. Today contemporary methods have enabled us to replicate these historic molds and produce copies for your enjoyment and use.
About our cookie molds...
- Made in the USA
- Individually hand cast and hand finished
- Made of resin and wood composite
house on the hill cookie molds are made of a resin and wood composite. Each mold is individually hand cast and carefully hand finished. Most of our molds are replicas of antique carvings, some dating as far back as the 1600's. Since the original carvings had imperfections such as surface cracks and worm holes, our replicas will mimic these characteristics which are not flaws. They add a sense of authenticity and charm to our cookie molds.
house on the hill is now designing cookie molds in a traditional style.
