Essential Piping Tips for Beginners
Piping can be intimidating, but it's just about pressure control and angle. Here are the basics to get you started.
The Essential Tips
- 1M (Open Star): The classic cupcake swirl tip. It creates beautiful rosettes.
- 2D (Closed Star): Creates a more ruffled, flower-like swirl.
- Round Tip: For writing and simple borders.
Technique
Twist the top of the bag to create pressure. Use your dominant hand to squeeze and your other hand to guide. Keep the tip close to the surface but not touching it.
