Use a Cup to Fill Your Piping Bags
Using a cup to fill your piping bag keeps the bag stable, frees both hands, and prevents messy spills
1. Prep the Bag & Cup
- Cut the tip of the piping bag.
- Insert your plastic coupler or piping tip.
- Push the tip securely into the bottom hole.
2. Set Up the Stand
- Choose a tall, wide-mouthed glass or mug.
- Drop the piping bag into the cup.
- Ensure the pointed tip sits at the bottom.
3. Fold the Cuffs
- Fold the top edges of the bag down.
- Wrap the cuff over the outer rim of the cup.
- This keeps the outside of the bag completely clean.
4. Fill with Frosting
- Use a spatula to scoop up your frosting.
- Scrape the spatula against the inside of the bag.
- Fill the bag until it is half full.
5. Secure and Close
- Unfold the cuffs back up to the top.
- Squeeze the bag right above the frosting line.
- Twist the top securely to close the bag.
