Hi Rachemmy, a Wilton 1M nozzle is a little too small for doing this. We sell a wider star nozzle which is the one we like best, you can buy online via our website or our Facebook page :)

Thanks for your lovely comment hkillen!

I think it's me mumbling rather than the volume, very sorry! I will try harder next time :)

Hi Sarah, thanks for posting this video, it was a lifesaver for me. You see, I promised to make a giant cupcake for a friend's daughter's birthday (for which she was going to pay me) but I had never made one before. After several attempts I finally got it right and thanks to your brilliant tutorial I now have a fairly decent attempt which I will be presenting her with tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

@suellar look on the Internet for a "cooked flour" buttercream, it's much less sickly

Perfect? Am I missing something?? Very amateur...

[rachemmy]

perfect, thanks so much! This was exactly what I needed to see, and it looks great :) Is it a Wilton 1M decorating tip (or of similar size/style) that you use?
