Your questions, our advice
What's the difference between tip 18 and an open star tip like #1M?
Compared with an open star tip like #1M, tip 18 has tighter ridges: the pattern is finer and suited to more delicate finishes.
Is tip 18 suitable for layer cake borders?
Tip 18 creates beautiful ridged borders on layer cakes, either continuously around the edge or as a series of evenly spaced dots.
Which frosting gives the best results with tip 18?
For a crisp definition with tip 18, opt for firm buttercream rather than whipped cream, which tends to sag more quickly.
