Ann Clark

Largest cookie cutter company in America.
Back in 1989, Ann Clark started out with little more than a pig-shaped Christmas ornament and a dream. After years of painting and creating small gifts for her children to give away, she set up shop in her garage and turned a hobby into a business. Thirteen years of love and labor later, her original inventory of six cookie cutter designs has grown into a broad product line of cookie cutters and associated giftware, making Ann Clark, Ltd. the largest cookie cutter company in the gift industry.
With the success of Ann Clark, Ltd., cookie cutters became a family affair. Although very supportive from the outset, Ann’s late husband, John, was promoted to the more official role of Vice President in 1996. Daughter Elizabeth joined the team as Sales Manager around the same time, and son Ben came on board as General Manager in 1999. Even granddaughters Margaret and Rebecca lend their services as cookie tasters, eagerly approving of Ann’s special butter cookie recipe handed down from her mother.
When the company finally outgrew Ann’s garage in Mendon, it moved to 12,000 square feet of factory space just down the road in Rutland, Vermont. Here in the beautiful foothills of the Green Mountains, all Ann Clark, Ltd. cookie cutters are handcrafted out of tin-coated steel or copper and then sold in the general gift market throughout the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. Ann still designs the artwork for the entire line of cookie cutters and accessories, while a team of over 20 full-time employees helps turn her creativity into reality
