I'm trying to find two cookie molds, that used to be common before a lot of the Mom n' Pop places started shutting down. The first is a leaf shape and the second is a sort of a muscular gingerbread man, both are always sold as sandwich butter cookies. I'd like to get the molds and start making them for my daughter, would they be a baking pan maybe? Thanks in advance.

I used to work at the Penn State Bakery, man you never know how much zucchini is used in cookies to see them made on a massive level. I look at chocolate chip cookies very differently now.

Wish I could help, but I don't know where you could go. I guess just start visiting those places. Classifieds and craigslist. Maybe even eBay.

The only thing that I found were a few "fondant stamps" which I don't know if they would even work. They were also undersized. I'm thinking these had to be in a big stamped cookie sheet, it would take too long to do each by hand. I've found several sheets for madeline cookies, which are similar, so who knows.

I wonder if you called a local bakery that's still around, if they could help you out?

That picture of cookies really takes me back to Christmas with my grandparents on Birch Street in Scranton.

Okay maybe not much help, but I was able to find these Mini Autumn Cookie Cutter Set (Tin) - CopperGifts.com

The leaf on the top right looks like the leaves for the cookies you have pictured.

Would these work? They are another fondant set, but closer in design.

For some reason, I think Alpine Bakery on 903 between Jim Thorpe and Albrightsville makes leaf cookies like this. I will try to get by on the weekend and find out what pans they use.

Maybe try AC Moore or Michaels? They may have at least the aluminum ones, I know my wife made various shapes for Christmas. Back in the old days my mom had a Mirro press, you'd fill it with dough, and there were various cams to screw on the end. Then you'd just turn the knob and the piston would force the dough through the shaped holes.
