Now that we have the glaze icing colored, let's get it in decorating bags so we can get to the fun part!
Here's the goal:
Check out this YouTube video that includes coloring glaze, finding the right consistency (10 second rule) and a simple trick for bagging glaze.
You'll need decorating bags. (Wilton is fine, Ateco is better)
Then you'll need decorating tips. Again, Wilton is fine. PMEs are best (but pricey).
I mostly use Wilton round #2 & #4. My favorite PMEs are #1.5, but I actually use #2 and #4 also.
Favorite couplers: ATECO! (Wilton's tend to cross thread. 😳)
I love these Wilton purple bag ties. :) SugarBelle has her own version as well.
And finally, I LOVE these tip covers. When you're finished decorating for the day, just pop one of these covers over the tip on the bag, and you can save the bagged icing for the next time.(No refrigeration needed.)
Enough on tools......let's get to bagging this icing!
The best and easiest trick to bagging your icing is from Karen (Karen's Cookies). Since her shop and videos are no longer available (spring 2017), I've included a YouTube video above that shows how to bag your icing using Press 'N Seal. That method is the best! Thanks Karen.
Bagging icing becomes a breeze once you start using this wonderful tip. =)
Here's my pictorial of Karen's bagging method.
