Instructions

1. - Use a bag fitted with Tip 8. Hold the bag at a slight upward angle from the surface of the flower nail.
2. - Starting on the outer edge, squeeze hard to form the base of the leaf. As you squeeze, slowly pull the tip slightly upwards (this will give the leaf a little lift).
3. - Relax pressure as you pull away to form a leaf point. Stop squeezing before pulling tip away.
4. - Rotate the flower nail and repeat the motion until you create an outer row of leaves.
5. - Repeat the same motion as you pipe more rows to fill in the center of the succulent. As you move towards the center, position the tip at a higher angle until you are almost upright as you fill in the middle.
