Q: Why should I buy this cake decorating kit over others?A: Variety of tips = flexibility and versatility. This is the only set with such a complete combination of both standard cake tips and Russian flower tips. With other sets on , you either get all standard tips or all Russian tips. For new cake decorators, you'll have the best of both world with this set.Q: Do I really need both types of tip?A: Standard tips are great for the basic swirls, etc., and you can certainly use them to create flowers, but it is painstakingly slow as only one flower pedal is piped at a time. With Russian tips, one whole flower equals one squeeze of the icing bag, literally just seconds! But you still need the standard petal tip to add the green leafs. All other sellers of Russian tips don't highlight this important fact!Q: What flowers can I create with these Russian tips?A: These Russian tips can create tulips, roses, Bleeding Heart, chrysanthemum, Lily of the Valley, and others. We have included a colored chart of the resulting flowers, as well as instructions on how to use the Russian tips.Q: How is the quality of these cake piping tips?A: As illustrated by the comparison chart above, our tips are engineered and manufactured to our exacting standards. The basic tips have a reinforcing ring at the base to ensure the tips do not easily misshapen; this is not what you will find in MOST other tips. The Russian piping tips are made of much thicker stainless steel thus misshape is never an issue. Q: Is this set appropriate for me?A: Yes, whether you are a beginner or a professional baker, this versatile set is all you need. With other sets on the market, you either get all classic tips or all Russian tips. Worse yet, some of the other sets might leave you with too many tips that you never use.

Beautiful results, easy to use but received an incomplete order
The quality of the metal used for these icing tips seems to be good and like it will hold up for many uses. They are also fairly easy to use if you watch a few videos on you tube. The instructions included with the package are brief and tell you how to put the tips together with the coupler, not how to actually pipe the flowers. I have never attempted flower cupcakes using Russian tips and they turned out beatifully. The set is supposed to come with 12 different Russian tips and two of mine were duplicates. Silicone piping bags were also supposed to be included and I received about 10 cheap plastic bags that broke during icing. Hence the 3 stars. I would return this for the full set of tips and the silicone bags, however, I was on a time limit to make these cupcakes for a friends birthday. I don't think I will miss the extra icing tip but the silicone bags would have been nice to have!

NO INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED!
This is a nice set and is a great quality, but I deduced the star quality because it had NO INSTRUCTIONS, and the instructions were the reason I chose this set. But, if you don't need to know what each tip does and how to use it, you will be pleased.

received the items, but was never told how to properly use them. Tried to use the flower tips and the bags don't work and the couplers are too small to go over the flower tips. Do I have to purchase larger couplings or different frosting tubes. Very dissapointed.l

Nicely packed kit with wide variety of tips
This kit is great. The tips come in nicely packed little box, which was a pleasant surprise as I expected a rather bigger box given the number and variety of tips. I tried the tips on desserts and amuse-bouches - they certainly add a touch of creativity (besides the standard tips, the Russian tips allow you to get into the more elaborate designs!). Maybe, a recipe book with fresh ideas to use the tips would be nice. I'm thinking of offering the kit for teachers' appreciation day.

Very nice set!
Very nice set, good value. The large 3 piece adapter can be a little of a struggle to get assembled, but I still love it. Its been years since I decoratred cakes. This makes it easy.

Wide Variety of Cake Decorating Tips
I was excited to be able to purchase this item which contains both large and small decorating tips in one package. I found it easy to use the tips. From my experience, you will have more success using firmer frosting which is needed in using the larger flower tips. I think these tips could be used for savory items as well such as decorative deviled eggs.
