Cake Decorating Kits, Piping Tools, and a Turntable to Take Your Cakes From Homemade to Bakery-Pretty.
The cake tastes the same either way, but a few simple tools are the difference between "frosted with a butter knife" and "where did you buy that?" Decorating is far less intimidating than it looks once you have the right couple of pieces.
This collection has the essentials to get you piping and smoothing like you know what you're doing, even if this is your first birthday cake.
Frost, pipe, and show off a little.
- START HERE - the Decorating Kit by Progressive gives you the bags and tips to pipe borders, rosettes, and lettering, everything a beginner needs in one box.
- THE SECRET TO SMOOTH SIDES - the Turntable spins the cake as you frost, so you get even, professional-looking sides instead of a lumpy tug-of-war.
- Is it done in the middle? The Cake Tester slips in and comes out clean when the cake's ready, no more guessing or cutting it open.
- (Keep the frosting where you want it.) The Icing Bag Closures seal a filled piping bag so nothing squeezes out the wrong end mid-swirl.
Honest heads-up: this collection is lean right now.
Kooi Housewares is a family-run store in Muskegon, Michigan, and we'll level with you: our decorating shelf is on the lighter side at the moment, though the kit and turntable here will carry a first-timer a long way. Insider tip: crumb-coat your cake with a thin layer of frosting, chill it for fifteen minutes, then do the real coat. That first thin layer locks the crumbs down so your finish stays clean.
