JEM Drop Flower #1F Piping Tip (Large Flowers)
The Drop Flower tip isn't just for cupcakes. Its big blooms look fantastic arranged in a wreath around the edge of a cake, filling gaps between larger decorations, or scattered over dessert cups and sheet cake squares. Try them on cookies, mini cakes, or along the edge of a roll cake too. Pipe with two or more shades of icing in the same bag and every flower comes out slightly different — natural-looking blooms with zero extra effort.
PME is one of the world's leading makers of cake decorating tools, and it shows in every tip they make. Crafted from quality stainless steel and drawn from a single piece with no seam, this detail matters more than it might seem: a seam on cheap tips distorts the shape of the icing and traps residue in the groove that's hard to clean out. Seamless construction means sharp, clean detail and a flower that comes out looking exactly as it should.
Wash the tip by hand in warm water with a bit of dish soap, ideally right after use before the icing dries on. A small piping tip brush or an old toothbrush works well for getting into the groove and cleaning the tip inside. Skip the dishwasher — harsh detergent tablets can dull stainless steel over time. Let it dry completely before storing so it stays shiny and spot-free. Treated this way, a good quality tip will last you for years.
