Give cupcakes and celebration cakes a floral finish with the Cake Craft Velvet Tulip Russian Piping Tip. Its patterned opening creates tulip-style buttercream blooms, ideal for building colourful clusters of flowers across your baked treats.

• Design: Velvet Tulip
• Size: 36mm
• Includes: one piping tip

How to use

Fit the tip into a suitable piping bag and fill with buttercream that holds its shape. Practise on a spare surface first. Hold the tip upright, squeeze to form the bloom, then release pressure before lifting away. Adjust icing consistency and pressure until the flower holds its shape.

Mix icing colours for a cupcake bouquet or combine with other floral piping designs for a garden-inspired cake. The flowers pictured are decorating examples; piping bag, coupler and icing are not included.
