Sadly, im not that smart with doing cool things with my blog, so i'll have to stick with the basics as well as a promise to post a pic another time. OK?OK.
- scissors
- circle tip of your choice, I used Ateco #807
- piping bag, I use mine sans coupler
- gel color of your choice, I used Wilton Sky blue
- paint brush strictly dedicated to baking/decorating
- spoon
- frosting of your choice


OK, somehow I just deleted a pic. Wow, I really do suck at this!! It was the pic that showed using the brush to 'draw' the first stripe in the bag. Oh well, I guess you can understand by looking into the bag.
Thats really all there is to it. Draw/paint as many or as few stripes as you want. I have found that 3 works the best for my taste. Take the brush, dip it in the color and liberally paint from the tip to where you folded the bag over. You will probably have to repeat a few times to get the 'right' amount before you add the frosting.
Next, using the spoon you're going to "plop" ( and yes, thats the technical term) the frosting into the piping bag. The reason is you're less likely to disturb the stripes on the side of the bag when you plop.


If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I will do my best to answer as clearly as I can. I'd also love to see pics. I'd love, love, LOVE to post them here on my blog too!! Hopefully by then, ill figure out how!! LOL
FYI- This striping technique also works well using a star tip. Ill frost a few that way and get the pics up for you.
I hope you found this tutorial helpful, thanks for stopping by!!
