Hey Guy's been a while since ive been on here,
Heres my question what tip does everyone use to make sunflowers with?
I need to make big ones then taper off to small ones for a reheasal dinner any info would be much helpful.
thanks

This isn't a specific answer but any of the bigger leaf tips will work! I would just experiment with which tip fits your idea best and then for the smaller leaves pick a size smaller!

I want to say I used a 352 Ateco tip when I did sunflowers last but don't quote me!

I've used a leaf tip #352 to make sunflowers. The larger wilton leaf tip #366 would be good for bigger flowers. I've made 3inch diameter sunflowers on the tops of cupcakes with a 352.

For sunflowers I recommend using one of the larger Wilton leaf tips. The 352 won't give you the right look. This is one time the Wilton ones will do a better job

I used tip 366 on my sunflower cupcakes. It is a large leaf tip. This is what it looks like when used for petals:

I think it would look fine on a cake too.

Thank you those are so cute, i like the cookie part but dont know if the customer would wonder what it would look like if you crushed the cookie up only the cookie part not the filling and put it into the middle? Then i thought about using chocolate candy melts to do the center of the flower, Oh well i will try both see which on i like(: Thanks

I used a 352 tip for the petals, just used more pressure. Also used it for the leaves..using less pressure. I used a 16 star tip and brown icing for the centers. Easy peasy.

Sorry, I don't have a pic. But, I just clustered the brown stars really close to each other and made the center as big as I wanted it to be. Then, I layered/staggered another layer of starts on top, to give it dimension. Then, I used yellow icing and the 352 tip and made petals, then another layer of petals, staggered on top of the bottom layer. I used more pressure and made the petals fuller than I typically do when making leaves. Finally, I put some green leaves coming out from under the bottom row of petals. Seems like I usually put 3 leaves per flower. I just used less pressure and pulled the icing out more for the leaves.
