Lekue Silicone Reusable Piping Bag Set
If you thought a piping bag was just something that high end chefs and bakers use on precious food and fancy cakes, it’s time to think again. A piping bag is a very handy (and easy) way to deliver a smooth … something (eg, filling, dip, potatoes, gougères batter, macaron batter, garnish, etc.) to a place (eg, vegetable, hard cooked egg white, surface of a soup, baking sheet, plate, etc.) in an efficient and/or decorative manner. With a piping bag and the right tip, you can create all sorts of lovely effects that look like you spent hours ...when, in fact, you didn’t (our favorite kind of deception :-))
Using a Piping Bag can present 3 major challenges: how to fill it (see our Cool Tip on filling a piping bag that makes this step much easier.), how to change tips mid-process, and how to clean it. The folks at Lekue have designed a solution that addresses all of these issues, so that you can make regular use of a piping bag in your culinary adventures: from filling cream puffs or deviled eggs, to gougères, twice-baked or duchesse potatoes, and other artful presentations.
The Lekue Piping Bag Set is built around an FDA-approved European-grade food-safe silicone bag: a thinner gauge material that is more flexible than most other piping bags … with a 2-piece connection that enables easier filling and changing tips, without having to disassemble and empty the entire Piping Bag, and easier cleanup.
The Lekue Piping Bag Set includes 3 tips in the most-common sizes and styles; you also may be able to use some of the smaller tips you may have in your drawer. When you’ve completed your piping project, that 2-piece connection is removable, and because the bag is thin, it can easily be turned inside out for easy and thorough cleaning: easy-peasy!
The Lekue folks have created a highly functional set that will add personal style and beauty to your food! Definitely a Cool Tool! Use your imagination and enjoy this Cool Tool!
