Zinnia
When piping the Zinnia, the ball flower center has a lot to do with the final shape. For a perfectly shaped flower, make the ball a little flatter, more like the shape of a half orange.
Skill Level:
None
Additional Information
Step 1
Step 1: Use Flower Nail No. 7. Hold decorating bag fitted with tip 7 at 90° angle to nail surface. Pipe a ball and slightly flatten with finger dusted in cornstarch.
Step 2
Hold decorating bag fitted with tip 101 at 45° angle with the wide end of tip touching the outer edge of the ball. Pipe a row of zigzags for petals. Repeat for 3-4 more rows, each time angling the tip up a little more.
Step 3
Add five tip 1 dots to center.

I really like this flower. I used to get intimidated with flowers because I would end up with my own sugar creation at the end... I love the step by step illustration...and with just changing the colors you can creat even more beautiful flowers.

I really like this flower. I came across it on this website when trying to find a quick and easy flower that could make my cupcakes pop. I prefer this flower over a shaggy mum because the level of difficulty is the same and you end up with a cleaner classier flower.
