“Aunt Chick,” a.k.a. Nettie McBirney, became an international figure for her culinary inventions in the 1930's and 40's. In 1948 her cutting edge invention of plastic embossed molds with special pebbled interiors, to keep the dough from sticking, revolutionized cookie cutters and created a worldwide tradition. But by 1982, they were hard to find. Bakers began stashing them away for fear that they would never be available again.
Carrie Greno, founder and president of Gramma's Cutters, was first introduced to these cutters through her grandmother, Bunny Pittenger, who purchased the Merry Xmas Set in 1949. Bunny said she had her children making cookies before they could walk.

Over the past ten years, Greno’s family has located and acquired all of the original Aunt Chick's molds, trademark and copyrights. In that time, the company has offered some vintage and reproduction cutters.
