Tips

  • If decorating bags and tips are not available to use, Ziploc baggies can be used. Cut a tiny snip in one corner or a baggie then partially fill the baggie with melted chocolate. Squeeze out any excess air and close the bag. Push all melted chocolate to the cut corner and use as a decorating bag.
  • It is still a good idea to watch the tutorials on the Wilton's site
