: I also use the pastry tipped cones (but I use the carrot bags
instead
: of the frosting bags) -- the fineness of line compares favorably
with
: Jacquard bottle tips with an 00L being about an 05 Jacquard size.
I
: tape the tip closed when not in use and then give a quick rinse
with
: hot water (or a dip in a cup of hot water) before using. I find
that
: the 1L size works as a good everyday tip -- (comparable to an 07
: Jacquard, maybe an 09...) with no clogging. The 00 does clog up
: sometimes at the start from leftover stuff that dried, but usually
hot
: water does the trick.
: I can send you some tips and cones if you need them fast -- but
: definitely get Kree;s instructions since she's the one who taught
me!
Thanks for the particulars. No need to send cones or tips...no
emergency. My experience definitely was a lesson to bring the whole
kit with me, inlcuding bottles and cones, just in case. I'll have to
pick up the cake decorating supplies and try it for myself.
