Wilton Tip #12 - Large Round

Large round tip for voluminous piping and filling

The Wilton Tip #12 is a stainless steel pastry tip in the American standard size, a signature of the Wilton brand, a global reference in cake design since 1929. Large round profile for large round piping: voluminous piping and filling, compatible with all disposable and reusable piping bags, with or without adapter.

Professional quality food-grade stainless steel: the tip maintains its shape under pressure, does not deform over time, and remains dishwasher safe for intensive use in pastry labs or demanding home kitchens.

Patissland Tip for Wilton Tip #12

For consistent piping with the round tip: pressure must be constant from start to finish. If the piping is too fluid and collapses, your cream is too soft (add mascarpone up to 30% or stabilize with 1 g gelatin per 100 g). If the flow is jerky, your cream is too firm (soften with a little cold liquid cream).
