Create your first cutter

Add an image

Click or drag into the upload area to add a PNG, JPG, WebP, or SVG image. You can also copy an image and press Ctrl+V on Windows or Linux, or Command+V on macOS, while the upload screen is open.

Cookiecad prepares WebP and SVG files for tracing automatically. If a format is unsupported or tracing fails, the upload area shows the problem; choose, drop, or paste another image to retry without reloading the Designer.

The 3D preview

The preview shows your cutter in a 3D scene that is saved with the design and travels with its links.

  • Surface and Print material at the top choose the table and the cutter's look. Plain plastic uses the Cutter color next to it.
  • + Add places a dough sheet, a cut-out in the dough, a loose cookie piece, another cutter or a ruler. On dough adds a sheet with a cut-out and a loose piece in one step.
  • Tap or click an object to select it. The bar that appears rotates, mirrors or deletes it, and for a dough sheet sets the dough type, color and thickness. Exact position moves it in 0.1 mm steps.
  • Layers lists the objects and their stacking order; Fit view frames the whole scene again.
