Pastry Tips

Why stop at just cakes and cookies when using these tips? They can be a very useful tool around the kitchen if you stop and think about all the different ways it can lend a helping hand. Deviled eggs are hit at barbeques and picnics, but getting the yolk mixture back into the egg half can be a real pain if you are just using a spoon. Load the filling into a bag and attach a star or scalloped tip and you have precisely and professionally filled deviled eggs that will be snatched up immediately.

When making cannolis, attach a thick plain tip on to your bag and fill it up with the ricotta filling. Give the bag a squeeze and the delicate outer shell is barely touched during the filling process, minimizing the amount of damage. For drop cookies, instead of boring flat cookies, use a different tip to create a cookie with a distinctive texture.
