Steps
Step 1
While holding the bag with one hand, fold down the top with the other hand to form a generous cuff over your hand as shown.
Step 2
With an angled spatula, fill the bag with approximately 1/2 cup of icing.
Note: It is important not to overfill the bag; otherwise, excess icing may squeeze out the wrong end.
Step 3
Remove icing from the spatula by squeezing the bag with your thumb and fingers against the spatula and pulling spatula out.
Step 4
Close the bag by unfolding the cuff and twisting the bag closed. This forces the icing down into the bag.
Step 5
Make sure you release any air trapped in bag by squeezing some of the icing out of the tip into the bowl. This is called "burping" the bag.
