How to Pipe a Shell Border

The shell is one of the most versatile icing decorations. Use it to pipe a simple border or pipe rows of shells to accent or cover a cake. Try piping shells in multiple colors and in combination with other decorations like dots or zigzags to create your own unique designs!

Fondant Cut-Outs

One of the simplest techniques for decorating with fondant is to create cut-outs. Fondant shapes can be applied to lay at on the surface of a treat or dried so that they hold their shape when used as a topper.

How to Pipe an Outline

Characters or designs are often outlined first, then piped in with stars or zigzags. Outlines can also be used for facial features.

How to Pipe a Star Fill In

The star tip creates the most celebrated, easily accomplished decorations, making the star fill-in technique a perfect option for a beginner’s project.
