Wonder if the punches are strong enough to cut through thin brass sheet, or aluminum foil cookie sheet thickness?

Don't know about the brass sheet but their website states they recommend foil. I think specifically one they market, but I would guess heavy aluminum or lead foil would be fine.

I just ordered and received three different leaf punches from Greenstuff and they are awesome. I wish this branch set was available before I ordered ! Now I have to order again !
I would think heavier gauge cooking foil would work just fine. The example shown from greenstuff looks a bit thick to me ? And the cooking stuff is probably way cheaper. I suppose someone will have to compare.

Let's hope the range grows - I'd love to see ferns, palm leaves, nettles etc.
