sharee9, do you have access to a Stevens store?We saw some shortbread moulds there - not wooden though, porcelain if I remember correctly.:-))

I've got two old wooden ones, one segmented and one single (bought them ages ago because they were little pieces of kitchen art) but I've never used them.How do you use them?Do you roll the shortbread over the top, or press the mould on to the dough?

Leave it out on the bench long enough and it will grow MOULD all by itself.

If you want a MOLD...try any good homewares store.

Hi, I have both but prefer using the single one.Got the segmented one from Mum - I think she had it for years.Good luck finding what you need.Took me a while to find - I have seen them on here for sale as well.
