FAQs

How do I clean the decorating tips?

Rinse tips with warm water and soap after each use. Use a small brush to remove any lingering residue, and dry them thoroughly before storage.

What is the purpose of the flower nails?

Flower nails are used to create sugar flowers. The icing is piped onto the nail and then carefully removed and placed on the cake.

How do I store the kit?

Keep all the tools organized within the caddy, using the drawers and compartments for easy access and safe storage. Store the caddy in a cool, dry place.

Can I use this kit for cupcakes?

Yes, this kit includes a variety of tips and tools perfect for decorating cupcakes.

What if my fondant sticks to the rolling pin?

Dust the rolling pin and your work surface with powdered sugar or cornstarch to prevent sticking.

Is the storage caddy dishwasher-safe?

Wipe the caddy with a damp cloth. It is not dishwasher safe.

What kind of piping bags should I use?

The kit includes both 12" and 16" single-use piping bags for different needs. However, any standard piping bag will work.

Troubleshooting

Decorating tips are clogged.

Use a toothpick or a small brush to clear any dried icing from the tip. Rinse the tip with warm water.

Spatulas are bending.

Apply even pressure when smoothing frosting. Avoid excessive force, or choose a sturdier spatula.

Fondant is cracking.

Knead the fondant thoroughly before use. Make sure the work surface is lightly dusted with powdered sugar or cornstarch to prevent sticking.

Icing is too thin.

Add more powdered sugar, a little at a time, to the icing. Stir well until the desired consistency is achieved.

Cake layers are uneven.

Use Bake Even strips while baking to promote even baking. Level the cake layers using a serrated knife before frosting.
