icing tip FAIL...!

...how do you get a perfect plain icing swirl...? .....like this....



or perfect dollop...like this?


..i thought you just need a ginormous tip, so i got a huge one and tried it, but it was too big and didn't fit the coupler i had, so couldn't get a good swirl going....and ended up with this...


...and thus, this....yuck.


...plus the colors started to blend toward the end and looked more like a green-yellow mustard rather than bright blue, yellow, and pink swirled icing.......more practice needed, blah.

  1. Lol, its really is hard trying to make any type of swirl, but I do think you did a good job on them. Did you use a pastry bag?

  2. you are too kind...! Not a pastry bag...but baggie with a new tip which was way too big...so i need to invest in the reusable pastry bags to use the super huge size tips....thanks for posting!
