Had a lovely afternoon with Yummy Grandma experimenting with split icing bags from Lakeland and I thought I would share my thoughts and tips! The kit comes with a few bags to get you started, some nozzles and a coupler for going into the split bag. The idea is that it creates two tone icing on your beautiful cakes!
The bags looks like normal icing bags until you pull them apart and find a clever extra section down the middle, giving you two sides for different coloured or flavoured buttercream. The coupler then splits in two, and a piece is put down each side of the bag and then secured!
Then you are ready to fill each side with your buttercream, we went for chocolate and rose, and lemon and vanilla. I found that whichever side you put in first goes down to the bottom easily, so when you put the second flavour in make you give it a good push down so that they both come out together!
The set comes with 6 different nozzles so you can create different designs. The nozzles are just plastic ones and are by no means as good as Wilton nozzles (my best and favourites!), but do create some lovely effects!
Happy piping!!
