Piping Practice

   Today I mixed up some royal icing and practised some piping techniques. I used a size 4 nozzle and practised dots and then made a few music notes. Then I changed to a size 1 nozzle and practised writing. I wasn’t very good to begin with but I got the hang of it as I went along. Then I used a star nozzle to create a series of borders and patterns. Lastly I used a shell nozzle and gain made some borders, pretty shell patterns and attempted a basket weave!
