    Hi Jwang,

    These cutters were bought from Hong Kong Sogo. I know Japan has these too.

    perhaps you would like to leave your e-mail so that I can let you know if I see it in Singapore.

    Hi vincent,

    I don't know about Hong Kong. If you're in Singapore, can buy from Sun Lik or Ailin.

    Hi Home Baker,

    custard powder makes the cookies lighter in texture.

    Hi nikki,

    emplex is to make the cookies crispy. You can omit it.
