Frequently Asked Questions

Sharp edges come down to three things: a well-chilled cake, the right tools, and technique. Use a bench scraper or straight edge smoother against a turntable for the sides, and a flat palette knife for the top. Chilling between coats of buttercream is key — warm frosting drags and tears, while cold frosting holds its shape.

A solid starter set includes a large round tip (for borders and writing), a star tip (open and closed, for rosettes and shells), a petal tip (for flowers and ruffles), and a leaf tip. From there, add specialty tips as your techniques grow. Pair them with quality piping bags and couplers/adapters so you can switch tips without changing bags mid-decoration.

Gel colors are highly concentrated and don't add liquid to your mixture — ideal for buttercream, fondant, and royal icing where consistency matters. Liquid colors are less concentrated and better suited for thin batters, drinks, or when a subtle tint is needed. Powder colors are used for dry applications — dusting fondant, coloring cocoa butter, airbrushing, and achieving metallic or shimmer effects that gels and liquids can't replicate.

Acetate sheets and rolls are used to create smooth, perfectly cylindrical chocolate collars, mirror glaze panels, and mousse cake wraps.

They provide a non-stick surface that peels away cleanly once set, leaving a flawless, high-gloss finish.

They’re also used as a barrier between cake layers and boards, and for creating custom chocolate decorations with a professional shine.
