plural pastry wheels

  1. A culinary tool for cutting pastry. It takes the form of a handle that bears a wheel, commonly with a fluted edge to make cuts with a decorative pattern.

    Shortbread dough takes beautifully to fancy fluted edges. If you don't have a crinkle cutter, a fluted pastry wheel creates the same effect.
