Springerle Cookie Molds

Carving an exclusiv mold

Here you become a little impression of carving a springerle cookie mold. Our example is the beekeeper.

Only well seasoned but untreated wood is used. Either linden, pear or cherry wood is traditionally used. For the purpose of making replicas linden wood is being selected.

Linden wood

The drawing of the motive is transferred to the wood. It is mandatory that the artist considers already in the first sketch all requirements from the carver.

Drawing is transferred to the wood

After the drawing has been copied on the wood the actual carving begins. Very special carving tools of high quality are used. Occassionally they must be custom made for the delicate work.

High attention is required to carve letters and numbers mirror inverted and to imagine how the positive of the carved contours will appear later on an impression in dough.

Carving the beekeeper

After the beekeeper has been carved the artist proceeds with creating the plant which is part of the motive. A single mistake can ruin all the previous work!

Carving more details

Another special tool is required to carve all the fine details of the bee hive. No mass produced machined mold can compete against this craftsmanship.
