Description: Partridge in a Pear Tree springerle cookie mold by House on the Hill. As we learned in the Christmas Carol, the partridge is the first of 12 gifts representing the 12 days between the birth of Jesus and the Epiphany. The mold has an arched top, reminiscent of a church window. We also make a matching cookie cutter for this mold.
Ever wonder about the meanings of each gift in the song? The partridge in a pear tree is represents Christ. A mother partridge will feign injury to lure a predator away from her nest; she is willing to die for her children. The tree is the symbol of redemption.
Looking for all twelve molds at once? The entire set of 12 Days of Christmas can also be purchased at the same time.
