Patissland Tip for Wilton Tip #81

The petal tip requires practice. For successful buttercream roses: use a flower nail, pipe a central cone first, then rotate the nail while piping petals in a spiral. Hold the tip with the narrow end pointing upward for structured petals. Refrigerate each rose for 30 minutes before placing it on the cake.
