Nordic Ware Cookie King Original Spritz Cookie PressEntry/Object ID
2023.2.85.229Description
Spritz cookies originated from Germany and Scandinavia and were brought to the United States with immigrants. The ingredients for the cookies vary, but they are all shaped using a tool that extrudes the dough.
The tool that most commonly shapes the dough in the United States, at least, is the cookie press. To use them, the baker puts the dough in a metal or plastic tube which has a place for a plate on one end and a means of pushing the dough through the tube on the other. One such example of a cookie press is the Cookie King by Nordic Ware, pictured here. The kit includes 10 plates to shape cookies as well as a decorating tip.Cataloged By
