What changes for you
- You can start crafting straight away, with no sawing. Every gingerbread couple arrives ready laser-cut with smooth edges.
- Your paints, pens and glue hold well. The plywood is untreated, so you can paint it, glue onto it, varnish it or oil it.
- You will find the right size for your project, from a small gift tag to a large window decoration. Widths range from 3 to 50 cm in 1 cm steps.
- You are well equipped for a craft session with children, for nursery or for the Christmas market. The cutout comes single or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.
- Your shapes look Christmassy even before you paint them. The laser cut leaves the typical brown edge that looks like real gingerbread.
Why this wooden cutout makes a difference every day
Shop-bought decorations look the same everywhere. A gingerbread couple you have designed yourself tells the story of the afternoon it was made. You choose the colours, patterns and size. In the end, something hangs on the tree, in the window or on a present that exists only once. When crafting with children, a sturdy blank makes all the difference. The shape is already there, and the design is all theirs.
Material & finish
The gingerbread couple is made of 3 mm thick plywood. It is light enough to hang up and sturdy enough for small hands to paint. The laser cut gives smooth, clean edges without splinters and the typical brown edge. The wood is untreated, neither varnished nor glazed. So it takes paint, varnish, oil and glue well. As a natural material, it shows different shades, fine structures in the grain and occasionally small knots. This is not a flaw. It is what makes each piece one of a kind. The cutout is made in our own production at Bütic in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Good to know about the gingerbread couple
Gingerbread figures have been part of Christmas baking for centuries. For many people, the gingerbread couple brings to mind Hansel and Gretel at the gingerbread house. That is why the shape suits Advent so well. Use it as a tree decoration, a window decoration or a craft project around the fairy tale.
Care & durability
There's not much you need to do. Store the untreated wood in a dry place and keep it away from constant moisture. Then it keeps its shape and looks good for a long time. You can also protect the surface with a coat of paint, varnish or oil, to suit your project.

Frequently asked questions
Can I paint the gingerbread couple or glue things onto it? Yes. The plywood is untreated, so you can paint it, glue onto it, varnish it or oil it. Paints and glue stick well to the natural surface.
Where does the brown edge come from? The cutout is laser-cut. This creates the typical brown edge. On the gingerbread shape, it looks like the baked edge of real gingerbread.
How tall is the shape at a given width? The height depends on the width. At 10 cm wide, the gingerbread couple is 6 cm tall. Other sizes follow the same ratio.
Why do the cutouts look slightly different? Wood is a natural material. Shade, grain and small knots vary from piece to piece. That is what makes each cutout one of a kind.
A wooden cutout is just the start. What counts is the moment when a gingerbread couple you painted together hangs on the tree. And everyone still remembers that afternoon. Just choose your size and quantity, and your next craft afternoon can begin.
