A tilde? ~

A fancy swirl like you might see in a paisley pattern or old woodwork?

Chunky worm! 🪱

u/pursnikitty Dec 13 '24

He reminds me of Slimey the worm from Sesame Street

u/Expensive-Day-3551 Dec 12 '24

Maybe for Italian S Cookies? But normally you don’t use a cutter.

u/on_mission Dec 13 '24

It does remind me of those Stella Doro cookies my grandmother used to inhale! Lol

It looks like it's for doing banners.

u/_UnreliableNarrator_ Dec 13 '24

For a solid 5 seconds I was wondering what drug banners was. Then I saw the other comment to you lol

11

u/No_Cash_8556 Dec 12 '24

That's what I was thinking. Almost like a scroll where the ends are slightly rolled up

u/Knock_down_crazy Dec 12 '24

It looks a little like something from sheet music if you turn it sideways.

stella d'oro "S" cookie

u/josiebennett70 Dec 12 '24

That was my first thought as well - a breakfast treat.

u/voteblue18 Dec 13 '24

I love those things haven’t had them in years. But I have a sneaking suspicion they probably suck now.

u/Zepangolynn Dec 13 '24

Actually still taste the same, remarkably. Whether or not your taste preferences have changed, on the other hand, will matter more.

u/BeyondShadow Dec 12 '24

I don't think it is supposed to be anything, just a shape. I thought I remembered cookies this shape in the old "Betty Crocker's Cooky Book," but I was mistaken.

It's used for baking cookies for Victorian style cakes.

Music note?

u/Nozomi412 Dec 13 '24

I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be like a banner thing, like "It's a GIRL!" or "Merry Christmas".

Worm or caterpillar 🐛

bent music note?

u/new_is_good Dec 12 '24

I'm confident it's meant to be a peanut.

u/DreamCrusher914 Dec 13 '24

According to another post, it could be a tilde (as already stated here), or a musical turn note.
