Questions & Answers

1. How long will the batteries last? 

A set of 4 alkaline batteries will last
through 35 to 40 regular barrels of
stiff dough.

2. How many cookies will one barrel

make?

Approximately 4 dozen cookies can
be made, depending on the disc and
how fast you move the cookie press.

3. Can you use regular AA batteries

in the cookie press instead of
alkaline batteries?

Regular batteries will not provide 
as much power and will not last 
as long as alkaline batteries.

4. Why won’t cookies and mints cut

off properly?

The dough must be the right 
consistency – stiff and pliable – not
crumbly or very soft. Also, the 3 
barrel cap feet must touch the 
baking sheet in order to form a
cookie or mint. As the unit is lifted
from the cookie sheet, the flow of
dough is cut, forming a cookie or
mint. Be sure to use uncoated,
ungreased baking sheets.

5. Can you decorate a cake with the

cookie press?

The cookie press can be used to
make attractive borders, edges, and
garnishes on cakes and many other
desserts. Stiff icings/frostings work
best.

6. Can you use the cookie press

when the barrel is not full?

Yes. Be sure to follow the assembly
and filling instructions on page 4 
and 5.

7. Why won’t the cookie press push

the dough when the barrel is full?

The gear must be turned so that 1–2
threads are showing on the rod (see
step 2 on page 4).

8. Why does the cookie press run

backwards?

The batteries are inserted incorrectly.
See step 1 on page 4 and the 
diagram inside the battery 
compartment for correct 
battery placement.
