Donut Cutter Review

Make Homemade Donuts The Easy Way

Ateco 2-1/2 inch Stainless Steel Donut Cutter

An affordable donut cutter is one of the handiest kitchen gadgets to have in your cupboard. You'll enjoy using one to make great looking donuts the fast and easy way at home.

It's not easy to find a high quality dough cutter for making donuts since most stores don't seem to carry them, but I found the best doughnut cutter that will do the job well and stand up to years of service. Grandma would have loved it, and you will too.

It's The Perfect Size

The Ateco 2-1/2-Inch stainless steel donut cutter cuts a perfect donut shape to make the best sized donuts for serving. As one satisfied Amazon reviewer says, "The rings puff up to good sized donuts, not too big, not too small." It's a perfect size for making small bagels too.

The Ateco cutter's outer edge has a diameter of 2-1/2 inches with a 1 inch center hole. This means it's designed for easy handling and should fit comfortably in the palm of your hand, not awkward like some cutters. Your hand won't get tired while using this cutter.

Ateco also makes a 3-1/2 inch cutter for those who prefer making a larger, full-size donut. You could buy both sizes, but, I personally prefer to eat a couple of the smaller 2-1/2 inch donuts to one full-sized donut. The smaller ones turn out a wee bit crispier when fried. They're absolutely delicious!

Quality Construction

Well made of high quality stainless steel, its sharp cutting edges slice cleanly through the dough without mess or fuss. No clogs and no prying out the dough.

This means you'll be able to cut a dozen donuts in no time at all, effortlessly, just like the pros. Its professional cutting edge is sharp, however, so take care using it.

The stainless steel is not only durable, but it's dishwasher safe too. This means it's the best donut cutter to clean and safe to leave in the dishwasher while drying overnight.

What Others Are Saying

This cutter is loved by consumers on the Internet with an average of 5 out of 5 stars on Amazon. Here are some of the comments:

"A great little donut cutter"

"Just the right size for cake doughnuts"

"Gives my donuts a very professional look"

"Well made and should last a lifetime"

Any Complaints?

I found virtually no complaints for this cutter. One person's review did say that the dough stuck to it a bit. However, this depends a great deal on how well the dough was made, and it's easily rectified by dipping your cutter in little bit of flour before cutting, as the flour will help to prevent any dough from sticking.
