# Cookie Shape

> Cookie Shape (https://cookieshape.com) is a web app for designing 3D-printable cookie cutters, stamps, stencils, molds and other baking tools. Add text, a drawing, a photo or an AI-made shape, check it against your printer, and download STL or 3MF files. Designing, previewing and downloading the print files is free; credits pay for AI shapes and design reviews. There is also a marketplace of ready-made designs and a free dough and bake calculator.

Things to know: the designer runs in the browser (no install). Output is standard STL and 3MF for any slicer. Tools are for baking and cooking only. Brands and cartoon characters are blocked. Printed plastic should be food-safe filament, hand-washed and never heated.

## Tools you can design
