Your questions, our advice
Can piping tip 789 replace a spatula for smoothing a cake?
Tip 789 speeds up covering a layer cake before the final smoothing with a spatula, but it does not completely replace the smoothing step for a perfectly smooth finish.
What finish does tip 789 create on the sides of a layer cake?
On the sides of a layer cake, tip 789 leaves a regular ridged effect, which can be left as is for a textured finish or smoothed out afterward.
What type of buttercream works best with tip 789?
Firm, smooth buttercream spreads best with tip 789, without leaving visible holes or air bubbles.
