This 12 piece set of stainless steel icing tips is great for anyone who wants to try their hand at decorating cakes or other baked goods with icing. They come with a variety of designs to allow you to make all sorts of different shapes, and the icing tips are big enough to make large decorations with ease.
It is worth noting that any total beginners to icing will want to experiment with these tips before starting on their icing, as it can be surprisingly difficult to do at first. Getting the icing just right and learning to control the bag takes some practice. I tried using a ziploc bag, as I didn't have any large piping bags and had a lot of trouble. The icing consistency is very important! However, that's all user error, rather than issues with the nozzles themselves, which are wonderful.
The tips are stainless steel, so they won't rust, and they're wide enough to be very easy to clean. Because of their size they can be difficult to use for very small or precise icing, but they work very well for larger designs. They're also designed to stack together very closely, which means that all 12 can be stacked up and put in the cupboard without taking up much space at all.
