Clinton Is Selling Cookie Cutters on Her Website and Other Amazing Presidential Swag

These days, Hillary Clinton is an international public figure and permanent part of American history thanks to a résumé that includes first lady, U.S. senator, secretary of state, and presidential candidate (so far). But back in the early ’90s, she was just starting to become a household name as the wife of Democratic presidential candidate and then-Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton. At the time, she was already different from most first ladies before her. She had been a working mom, carving out a successful career for herself as a partner at a law firm, children’s rights advocate, and board member for the multibillion-dollar corporation Walmart.

As Hillary emerged on the national political scene, she would quickly learn that the extra-intense media scrutiny meant anything she said could easily become a soundbite to be quoted ad nauseam, dissected, and very often criticized. One of the first and most famous examples came during a campaign-trail stop in 1992 after she was questioned about whether her legal practice received advantages since she was married to the governor. “I suppose I could have stayed home and baked cookies and had teas,” she said, “but what I decided to do was fulfill my profession.” The off-the-cuff comment prompted a media firestorm, with pundits alleging she had contempt for women who didn’t work outside the home, many stay-at-home moms taking offense, and even Family Circle magazine challenging her to a bake-off against Republican first lady Barbara Bush (kicking off a somewhat ridiculous tradition that continues today).

So we couldn’t help but notice that one of the most interesting pieces of merchandise currently for sale on the Clinton presidential campaign website is, actually, a cookie cutter. Specifically, an "H is for homemade” cookie cutter, which includes the signature arrow drawn into the “H” that’s become Clinton’s logo for the 2016 presidential race.

Did she sign off on this? Did her campaign folks think about the connection? Is it a wink-wink at the old issue? An oversight? We don’t know, but whether or not she becomes president, a Hillary Clinton cookie cutter seems like one of the more fun pieces of campaign memorabilia to hang on to. While most of the nominees, both Democratic and Republican, focus mostly on selling T-shirts, signs, bumper stickers, and buttons on their sites, many offer some fun food-and-drink-themed items that you can use long after the country has elected its next POTUS. Here are some of our favorites.

Hillary Clinton: H Is for Homemade Cookie Cutter, $10 (above)

“You’ll be the life of the Hillary house party when you bring a plate of homemade cookies to your next campaign event,” reads the product description for this plated-steel cutter that molds cookie dough into the candidate’s H-with-an-arrow logo. While it would be neat if it created a cutout of her face or something even more Clinton-identifiable, it’ll get the job done for those who want to show their support through sweets.
