Cake Decorating Tools
Tips & Tools of the Trade
1. Slice cakes with a sturdy serrated knife (far left) to ensure a clean cut.
2. With their angled blades, large and small offset spatulas (left) make precise frosting easy.
3. A basic teaspoon and table knife (top) can stand in for more specialized tools.
4. A canvas or disposable plastic pastry bag with couplers and tips in assorted sizes (middle) is a must-have for piping dots, lines, and swirls.
5. Stir batter with a rubber spatula (right).
6. Use long, thin bamboo skewers (bottom) to stabilize cake layers, if necessary.

NO PASTRY BAG? NO WORRIES
In a pinch, Karen recommends using a freezer-weight ziplock plastic bag in place of a traditional pastry bag. Cut a small hole in one of the bag's bottom corners, then fit with a coupler and tip, fill halfway with icing, and seal.
