Wilton Honoré Tip
A V-shaped opening tip for creating the traditional wave effect of French pastry.
Overview
The Wilton Honoré tip features a characteristic V-shaped slit opening in food-grade stainless steel, mounted on a round base compatible with standard piping bags on the market. It recreates a traditional French pastry technique: a wave of whipped cream or buttercream, tilted alternately to the left and then to the right, forming a regular ridge on the surface.

Uses
- The V-shaped opening forms a regular wave on the surface during piping.
- Used for a traditional French pastry dessert with whipped cream, as well as waves on tarts and ribbons on layer cakes.
- Also suitable for graphic scales and structured finishes on contemporary desserts.
- Compatible with all standard piping bags, disposable or reusable.
Pro tip. Keep the angle and speed constant throughout the V-shaped motion: variations in rhythm disrupt the regularity of the ridge, especially on long borders.

Frequently asked questions
Is this tip only for the traditional dessert it is named after?
No. Beyond this historic use, it can also create regular waves on tarts, cascading ribbons on layer cakes, and graphic scales on more contemporary decorations.
What whipped cream texture works best with this tip?
Whipped cream that is well whipped and stabilized holds the wave better than cream that is too soft and collapses before it can set in the refrigerator.
Can buttercream be used instead of whipped cream with this tip?
Yes, firm buttercream works just as well as whipped cream for forming the V-shaped wave, and it holds for longer at room temperature.
