⬇️ Step-by-Step Piping Guide Below ⬇️ 1️⃣ Base Ruffle Layer To start, I used the Wilton Tip 70 to pipe a ruffled base layer around the bottom of the cake and the top edge. For this vibrant hot pink color, I used Color Mill food coloring in Hot Pink. 2️⃣ Main Borders For the main borders on both the bottom and top of the cake, I used my favorite Wilton Tip 4B. This tip is the perfect size—not too big or small—and works great for most borders. 3️⃣ Adding Pearls Using silicone grip tweezers, ...

⬇️ Tip numbers written in the caption below 🎂⬇️  Sharing what worked for me, and I hope it helps you too! Cake inspired by @aprilsbakerlondon 🫶  1️⃣ Top Border Swirls: I started with a Wilton #4B tip to pipe alternating swirls on the top border. I sometimes get turned around, so doing it in one continuous motion helps me stay consistent. Take your time, and don’t worry if it’s not perfect—practice makes it easier!  2️⃣ Bottom Shell Border: Using the same Wilton #4B tip, I piped a classic shel...

Another thing I did when I first started at a bakery was pipe borders over and over again. I just stretched out a large piece of parchment and piped over and over. Pipe, scrape, pipe, scrape until I got a feel for it.   These tips are all great tips to use for cake borders. Even some fancy little twirls! Have fun with it 🧁  . . . #piping #pipingtips #pipingbuttercream #buttercream #cake #cupcakes #pipingvideo #buttercreamtutorial #cupcakesecorating #cakedecorating

Wilton 4B is another most used among my piping tips! Simple to use and lots of options in terms of designs, including the shells, shell rope, dollops and spiral rope. This is a great beginner tip to have in your collection if you don’t have it already!

Tips  • Don’t rock your tip up and down: squeeze and hold it steady for a count of 3 or 4, then release after each shell  • Buttercream recipe is on my website - add a little extra powdered sugar to stiffen the consistency  •

Tips for piping a buttercream shell border with a 4B open star tip
I usually use the Wilton #4B for my border piping, but when I’m decorating a larger cake like the 9-inch cake, I tend to go with a 6B instead. I like the size of it, I feel like it matches the cake better. I also pipe in sections instead of trying to go all the way around in one go—just because when the piping bag is too full, it gets heavy and harder to control. Keeping it lighter makes it easier to work with 🩷   #emmacakesseattle #cakedecorating #seattle #seattlecakes #wilton #wiltoncakes
