Kitchen Swap It


Sometimes a recipe calls for a certain ingredient or item that we may not have on hand.  So, "If not on hand....if you can…. SWAP IT”!


A pastry bag: Is a cone shaped bag used for piping of icing onto cakes or for more complicated cake decorations. You can also use a pastry bag to create decorative food arrangements of semi- solid food.

The Swap: A plastic bag. For a simple “Happy Birthday” or “I Love You” design on a cake you can use a heavy freezer plastic bag and turn it into a handy dandy pastry bag for basic decorating, frosting, melted chocolate, whipped cream or piping of dough (like Churros..etc).  Spoon in your ingredient and snip the corner with scissors to your desired diameter and then gently squeeze out onto your cake.
