Bow

The bow has many uses. Create a different look by using a different tip: round, star and petal will work.

Getting Ready

Set up your practice board.

Insert a coupler base in your Featherweight bag and lock Tip 104 onto it with your coupler ring.

Fill bag half full with medium consistency Buttercream Icing.

Practice with: Tip 104
Icing: medium consistency

1. With narrow end of tip pointing straight up, squeeze, moving the tip up and around to the left and back to the starting point.
2. Continue around, making a second loop on the right.
