I like to make cute lunches for my family so I decided to purchase a set of these cutters to cut cheese and vegetables. I was expecting them to be on the smaller size but these cutters are really tiny. They are about the diameter of a dime but they are deep which allows me to make thicker pieces depending on how thick I slice the food. They need to be dried throughly immediately after washing to prevent rust. The set contains 16 different designs and 2 removeable plastic holders to protect your hands while using the metal cutters.
