Colour Mill - Piping Tips
#2D tip
Drop flower tip for small flowers made with a single squeeze
The Colour Mill #2D piping tip is made of stainless steel and is compatible with all disposable or reusable piping bags, with or without a coupler. Drop flower / closed-star flower profile: it creates a small flower with a single squeeze, without twisting your wrist, making it ideal for consistent, repeatable patterns.
Professional-grade food-safe stainless steel: the tip retains its shape under pressure, won't deform over time, and is dishwasher-safe for heavy-duty use.

Instructions
- Insert the tip into an empty piping bag, with the narrow end facing the point, and cut the end level with the base for a clean fit.
- Fill the piping bag two-thirds full with your mixture (buttercream, whipped ganache, stabilized whipped cream), pushing the air toward the tip.
- Hold the piping bag vertically about 1 cm above the surface and squeeze steadily; wash the tip with hot, soapy water after use (dishwasher-safe).
Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Do you need to twist your wrist to make a flower with this tip?
No, that's the whole point of the drop flower tip: one firm squeeze and release is all it takes, with no twisting motion.
Is this piping tip suitable for large-scale production?
Yes, the simple, repeatable motion makes it particularly effective for quickly decorating a large number of identical items.
What cream consistency gives petals the best definition?
Cream that holds its shape well—not runny or too stiff—helps keep the flower petals well-defined after piping.
