Piping - decorate like a professional

Piping is a shaping technique for creams, whipped cream, batters, and other mixtures using a pastry bag with tips. It is used for decorating cakes, pastries, and confections, filling profiteroles, or shaping choux pastry. The key to success is even pressure on the bag and the right tip choice. Common shapes include rosettes, stars, shells, and spirals.

  • The pastry bag was invented in France in the 19th century.
  • There are over 50 different types of piping tips.
