Cookie manager recommendations?

I need a cookie manager for Safari that will sort cookies by their installation date and let me delete them. I've searched (Google, MacFixIt, etc.) without success. This seems like such a simple, useful capability, it's hard to believe it's not available, I've probably just missed it. Any recommendations? Thank you!

mini, Mac OS X (10.5.5)

There doesn't seem to be any, and believe me I have LOOKED!

There was one called SafariPlus which ran on Tiger, but the developer dropped it, and the latest security update killed it! 😟

We can only hope that either somebody develops one, or the next incarnation of Safari includes one!

I forgot about SafariCookieCutter:

but it looks pretty old.

So does Cookie Muncher:

but I have found one called Cookie Assassin:

which costs all of $8.95 but has a ten day trial period.

May be worth a try? It says it is an 'Apple Downloads Staff Pick' but I can't find at Apple Downloads.

There's is also Coacoa Cookies by Todd Ditchendorf, former Apple programmer. It says it runs on 10.4 or higher, so if you have 10.5.x installed, your mileage may vary.

Thanks, I appreciate your suggestions. None of them lets me list cookies by installation date. I tried CocoaCookies, but could not get it to run on my 10.5.5 systems.
