Question: Piping Bags (I think thats what they're called!)!?
How I make a piping bag for icing cupcakes!? Do you do it with greaseproof paper!? And i dont even have the metal nozzle bit either!.

also, where in the UK could i buy a proper one from, for cheap!? I need one for tomorrow, which is why i asked how to make them just incase!

10points for best! Cheers guys xxWww@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
just use a zip lock baggie or a baggie; after you put the frosting in it seal it shut with no air inside, and cut a small piece from one of the corners, just point and squeeze, i do this alot, especially good for writing on cakes! good luck!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can use any plastic bag (ziploc or otherwise) that you have!. The thicker, the better (such as a freezer bag!.) If you have no tip you'll just approximate the round tip by cutting off a corner!. This works just fine, but gives you a bit less control than actul piping bags!.

Where to purchase would be a kitchen supply store or a cake decorating store!. Not being in the UK I can't give you a specific store name, and most cake decorating stores tend to be small mom-and-pop operations, not chains!. Your choices there will be a sturdy re-usable bag, or a box of 10 disposable bags!. Both are not really that expensive!. You just need to decide how often you'll be decorating cupcakes!

Good luck! Have fun!Www@FoodAQ@Com

i reccomend putting 1 bag inside another so its stronger and also some bags will rip up the seams i would reiencforce it with somthing just a piece of plastic taped into a cone then slot it into the bag (make sure the tape it on the outside of the cone sit it doesnt come in contact with it good luck

Most two dallor/junk stores have them, you can also get them at the supermarket sometimes!. btw greaseproof doesnt work too well because it seeps out the side so yeh just use a freezer bag like teheother ppl mentioned Www@FoodAQ@Com

get a large freezer bag and cut the corner of to leave a small hole!. You can then fill the back and use that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Take a storage bag and fill it with icing a little hole at the bottom tip!.


try a local food storeWww@FoodAQ@Com
