FAQs

What kind of frosting works best with this tip?

How do I clean the tip?

What size piping bag is best to use with this tip?

How do I store the tip?

Troubleshooting

Decoration lines are inconsistent or not well-defined.

Ensure the frosting consistency is correct. Too thick, and it will be difficult to pipe; too thin, and the details won't hold. Also, make sure the tip is clean and clear of any dried frosting.

Frosting is coming out of the bag around the tip.

Make sure the tip is securely inserted into the piping bag. If using a disposable bag, snip the tip opening carefully to prevent it from being too large.
