CALYX CUTTER - R13

This Calyx cutter is manufactured by Pat Ashby at Orchard Products. It is perfect for a Rose Calyx but can also be used for many other flower backs. It can be cut out either flat or by using the 'Mexican Hat' technique for a more realistic appearance. It can also be used to make Fantasy Flowers or quick Lilies or Syephanotis. Perfect for filler flowers in your sugar flower sprays.

The R13 Calyx measures 29mm and can be used with both the 5 petal flower cutter and the single rose petals to complete beautiful sugar roses. In my experience this cutter works best when used with the 5 petal flower cutter F8, but it depends how much emphasis you want to put on the calyx. You could also use it with the F7 or F9 cutters.

All Orchard Products cutters cut cleanly without the need for 'scrubbing' on the board. They are non-stick and keep their shape and will not lose shape even in the dishwasher or in boiling water. They are easily cleaned and meet EEC regulations for food contact. They do not corrode and are comfortable to hold and easy to use. Great value for money.
