#2E Piping Tip
Medium closed-star piping tip for classic rosettes and borders
The Colour Mill #2E Piping Tip is a stainless steel pastry tip, compatible with all disposable or reusable piping bags, with or without a coupler. Medium closed-star profile: it creates medium-sized rosettes and ridges, a versatile size between large borders and fine finishes.
Professional-grade food-safe stainless steel: the piping tip retains its shape under pressure, does not deform over time, and is dishwasher safe for intensive use.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
How does the #2E differ from the larger #2C?
The pattern has the same closed-star profile, but the smaller opening creates finer, more regular rosettes and ridges.
Is this piping tip suitable for a standard-sized cupcake?
Yes, it's a go-to size for classic cupcakes—not too large and not too subtle.
Can it be used with stiff royal icing?
Yes, provided you adjust the consistency: icing that's too stiff will put strain on the piping bag, while icing that's too thin will blur the fluted details.
