How to assemble a Piping Bag!

Assembling a piping bag ( or pastry bag some might say) is really easy! Anyone can do it, but it might take a few tries! Don't worry if you can't get it right the first time, KEEP TRYING!!!!!! :) You always need to know how to use a piping bag for decorating, piping ( obviously!) and more!

Ok, so depending on what size tip you need, you're going to need different items.

For a small tip:

1 piping bag

1 coupler

1 coupler ring

scissors

tip

For a large tip:

1 piping bag

1 large tip

For a BIG tip:

Place your tip in your piping bag face forward. Cut your piping bag ( at the tip) until the piping bag goes to the MIDDLE of your tip. Make sure to adjust it by pulling your piping bag down to make sure your tip won't fall out. If you cut your whole too big, you will need to start over! The tip will be moving up and down in the bag, but once you put in your frosting, it will work fine!! :)

For a SMALL tip:

place your coupler in your bag. Cut the tip of the bag until the bag goes to the MIDDLE of your bag. Once again, make sure the hole isn't too big!!! ( at this point, half the coupler should be in your bag; half sticking out) Place your tip on the coupler! If it doesn't fit, then you don't need a coupler and your tip is too big! See above for what to do.

(in the picture this is a large tip, without a coupler or coupler ring)

Screw on your coupler ring on top of the tip, and make sure its nice and tight so it doesn't come off!

After your piping bag is assembled, add your frosting, and start piping!!

Enjoy! I know you can do it!!! :)
