Fundamentals of Cake Decorating - Supply and Tool List
Here is a supply list that you'll need to start accumulating if you're planning on enrolling in an upcoming decorating session. The thinks listed (and pictured) below are things that you'd need to bring with you each week to class. I found that purchasing a large inexpensive tool box was the best way to keep my supplies together.
- 1 or 2, 12" or 14" non-disposable decorator bag and a standard coupler (http://bit.ly/eVUSgj)
- A long serrated knife (like a bread knife) as pictured here: http://bit.ly/gQ4aI9
- A cake decorating spatula as pictured here - 10" -12" in length: http://bit.ly/gIxPYM (Available at Wal-Mart - you'll have the choice between an angled spatula and a flat spatula - my preference lies with flat - around $5-$6)
- A small variety of cake decorating tips: a basic star tip, a basic petal tip, and a basic round tip (more info available if needed, please ask if you'd prefer tip size numbers) Standard decorator tips (Wilton brand) are numbered. There are 3 sets of 4 tips each, available at Wal-Mart that would be ideal for class. They are in the craft area with other cake decorating supplies. Please do NOT bring any plastic decorating tips.
Large Tip Set - tip #10, #12, #21, and #32
Small Tip Set - tip #3, #5, #16, #18
Flower Tip Set - tip #102, #104, #224, #252
- Some sort of cake plate, stand, or pedestal, preferably one that spins, but anything will do for starters. (Wal-Mart carries a basic Wilton spinning cake stand that was around $15 if I remember correctly. Definitely a good investment in the long run)
Additionally there will be a few odds and ends you need from home each week - things like small mixing bowls, a hand towel, apron, small pointed scissors, and wax paper.
