How to Pipe Icing Leaves
Make a simple, versatile leaf to add realistic details to flowers. Leaf tips can also be used to make simple flowers, such as sunflowers.
Skill Level:
None
Additional Information
Step 1
Leaves add extra details to flower arrangements, and they don’t always have to be green! Leaves can be piped in different colors and lengths, creating different effects.
Icing Consistency: Medium
Step 2
On a flower nail or a flat surface, hold a decorating bag fitted with tip 352 at a slight upward angle from the surface. The two points of the tip must be vertical (so that it looks like an open beak).
Step 3
Squeeze hard to form the base of the leaf.
Step 4
As you squeeze, slowly pull the tip slightly upward (this will give the leaf a little lift).
Step 5
Relax pressure as you pull away to form a leaf point. Stop squeezing before pulling tip away.

'Piece of cake' when adding this icing to your cake! It's very easy to do with only a little practice. Very effective, makes all the difference to the flowers on your cake. I also have put some on wires to add to a bouquet of roses - with royal icing of course. Easy and effective.
