For serious bakers, the Avanti Icing Set 18pce with Box contains 12 different stainless steel nozzles for creating any work of art plus a nail and cleaning tools. Tips for using your new piping bag Begin by cutting the end tip off your disposable piping bag/pastry bag. How much you cut off is determined by the size of the nozzle you are going to use. Some recipes will tell you the type of nozzle (ie open star-tip etc), but for the actual sizing of the nozzle, some have numbers and letters, and some it is stamped on the actual nozzle. Here, for my 8″ 3 layer cake, I used a 2D closed-star tip. Slowly add the remaining water and knead the dough in the bowl for four minutes. (Alternatively, you could mix with a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook). There's the Wilton Featherweight Piping Bag which is grease-proof and made from durable and flexible polyester for decorating all types of cakes and pies. For a larger option, the Wilton Swirl 3 Colour Coupler Decorating Set has 6 x 41cm disposable piping bags and a split coupler that allows you to use 3 different icing colours at once for a fun swirling effect on cakes.
