Cake decorating ideas and piping tips
How To Make A Pastry Cone
1. Roll out a square of parchment paper. Fold bottom edge up in a triangular fashion until it meets the top edge. Cut parchment from the roll. You will be left with a triangle.
2. Open the parchment. Use the crease as a guide to cut your triangle out.
3. On the long side of one of the triangles, draw a small line along the top of the parchment in the middle. This is where your point will form.
4. Take one corner of the paper and roll it in on itself until the corner lines up with the bottom point. Repeat with the other point, folding the point down and to the back. The two sides will line up down the middle of the cone.
5. Wrap clear tape around the tip of the bag to prevent the point from opening as you use it.
6. To fill the pastry cone, hold it in your hand. Put frosting on a spatula, and place spatula slowly into the bag. Pinch your fingers down on the spatula and slide the spatula out, keeping the frosting in the bag.
7. Fold the edges of the pastry cone into the middle, and roll the top of the pastry cone down to pack the frosting tightly.
8. Snip a small hole in the tip of the bag so you can pipe the frosting.
How To Work With A Pastry Bag
1. You can use either disposable or reusable pastry bags.
2. Open the pastry bag and place a coupler inside.
3. Select the cake decorating tip you want to use. Place the tip on the outside of the bag. Put a ring over the tip and screw the tip onto the bag.
4. To fill the bag, turn the top edge over. Cup your hand like a C, holding the bag, and place the edges of the bag over your hand.
5. Use a spatula to scoop the frosting inside. Fill the bag half full.
6. Bring the sides of the bag back up. Twist the sides of the bag to squeeze the frosting down towards the tip. Squeeze a little frosting back into your frosting bowl to eliminate any air bubbles.
How To Practice Piping
1. Lay a piece of parchment paper onto your counter top.
2. Prepare a pastry bag using a round cake decorating tip.
3. Twist the pastry bag and hold the bag at the back edge. Squeeze this edge to control the flow of frosting.
4. Practice making straight lines. Keep your hand moving at an even pace, and keep even pressure on the bag to ensure you have a solid, straight line.
How To Make a Shell Border
1. Place a star tip on the pastry bag.
2. Hold the bag at a 45-degree angle. Touch the bag down to the paper. Squeeze and hold in place until the design starts to bulge. Release the pressure, pull down onto the paper and release the frosting.
3. Repeat, overlapping the edge of your first scallop with the next scallop.
How To Make A Rosette
1. Place a star tip on the pastry bag.
2. Hold the pastry bag perpendicular to the surface.
3. Squeeze, rotate the bag and tail off. When you stop the flow of frosting, you are tailing off.
How To Make Bubble Letters
1. Use a pastry cone filled with frosting.
2. To make a letter H, make a dot, squeezing and holding the cone in place. Pull straight down, squeeze and hold to make another dot, and then tail off.
3. Repeat, making another line next to the first.
4. Connect the lines in the middle to complete the H.
5. If you want thicker lines, cut a larger hole in the tip of the pastry cone. Keep your scissors perpendicular to the bag when cutting to ensure a nice, neat line of frosting emerges from your pastry cone.

You’ve got the basic recipe. Now learn all the different ways you can decorate those holiday sugar cookies like a pro.
To complete this How-To you will need:
Specialty decorating items
Sugar cookie dough
Cookie cutters
Cookie sheets
Currants, chopped nuts, or assorted candy
Eggs
Food-coloring liquid and food-coloring gel or paste
A pastry brush or small artist’s brush
Hard candies
A plastic bag
A rolling pin
Plastic squeeze bottles
Royal icing
A butter knife
Rolled fondant
Waxed paper
Cookie tins
A straw
A toothpick
Step 1: Get supplies
Go to a baking-supply or craft store, or shop online for specialty cookie-Decorating items.
Step 2: Jazz them up
There are tons of ways to decorate your cookies before baking. After you’ve rolled out the dough and cut the cookies into shapes, press currants, nuts, or candy into them. Or brush them lightly with egg white and dust with colored sanding sugar or sprinkles.
Tip: Dragees, those tiny gold and silver balls that adorn fancy cookies and cakes, are edible. But because they contain real metal, eating them is not advisable.
Step 3: Glaze them
To add colorful shine, glaze cookies before baking by whisking a few drops of liquid food coloring into an egg yolk and spreading it on with a pastry brush or small artist’s brush.
Tip: If you want to hang cookies on your Christmas tree, use a straw to make holes in the tops before baking.
Step 4: Create stained glass
For a stained-glass effect, put hard candies into a plastic bag, crush them with a rolling pin, and then sprinkle them onto unbaked cookies. The candies will melt to look like beautiful stained-glass windows.
Tip: Do a test cookie to make sure the candy doesn’t start to burn before the cookie is fully baked. If that happens, add the candy after the cookies are half-baked.
Step 5: Ice them
For already-baked cookies, try frosting them. Whip up some royal icing, divide it into separate batches, and tint with food-coloring gel or paste. Put the icing in plastic squeeze bottles, pipe it around the outline of each cookie, squeeze some in the center, and spread it evenly over the top with a butter knife or a brush.
Tip: For a marbled effect, spread a light coating of white icing on the cookies. Then pipe on stripes of colored icing and swirl them with a toothpick.
Step 6: Make them glitter
Frosted cookies can be decorated even more by sprinkling them with edible glitter or luster dust.
Step 7: Make rolled fondant
Make or buy rolled fondant. Add food-coloring gel or paste to different batches, roll them out, and use your cookie cutters to make pieces that are identical to your cookies. Brush the bottoms with a tiny bit of water and press them onto the cookies.
Step 8: Store properly
Store your cookies in airtight containers, in single layers separated by waxed paper.
