Does anyone know if I can buy a Juvenile Diabetes "shoe" cookie cutter?

The yearly fundraiser has started here and I'd like to make some cookies to encourage donations. I thought it would be cute to make sugar cookies in the shape of the "shoe" they use to write names for cash donations. I can use "Sugar Baby" to ice in the bold Crayola colors they use for the shoes (red, yellow, green & blue).

It would be too difficult to manually trace/cut out the large quantity I would like to make.

 
I wonder, if you brought a pattern in to a sheetmetal place,if they could whip one up for you,

especially if it's for a fundraiser. worth checking on.

 
The website says about 10 days but there's an option for 2-day shipment. I never ordered

anything from them, but found it using google. It's really not that hard to change the shape of a round cookie cutter though... I made an acorn once out of a Christmas bell and it turned out pretty good... resourceful (cheap) as I am. But if you need it quickly and don't want to wait, you might try forming one yourself from a simply shaped one.

 
They "lawyered" me up again! I can't make cookies for JDRF fundraiser for liability reasons.

Legal has reared its ugly head and shot me down again!

I GIVE UP!

 
That seems kinda crazy... what, did they think you were going to profit from them? Were

you going to sell them to raise money or give them away? Seems to me unless it was a EXACT duplicate of that little shoe of their's there would be no problem!

 
Unfortunately, I would guess a sign of the economy....Nothing else for them to work/focus on. Sorry

 
I should clarify...this is my company's legal. Same doofus who shot down the GBH fundraiser.

And I wasn't even going to sell them. It would have been a little "bonus nudge" to get a $1 donation for a shoe. I did it last year with brownies when we were raising money to send Care packages to our Toys for Tots Marines over in Iraq. But I didn't "ask" for permission that time.

That'll teach me.
