It looks like a big star tip, you just give a little wiggle when you pipe, to give the wavy look.

I would use a fairly soft icing and firm pressure on the pastry bag, which will help give it that ruffle effect. I did some like this last summer, and I'm pretty sure that's how I did it. icon_smile.gif

This is what I'd suggest. I wouldn't wiggle, but squeezing pretty hard will give you that effect.

it kinda looks like a rose tip...i watched a tutorial on how to make carnations and thats what it looks like to me...maybe tip number 124 or 127..up and down motion then build on your base..let it ruffle out...=) good luck... icon_smile.gif

I think its a star tip too, also the CCs are minis so I dont think you can get that effect on regular sized CCs, please someone correct me if im wrong?!

I doubt very much that they are minis. They do look like a regular cupcake size just not muffin sized icon_smile.gif

Lovely swirl!

It looks like the tip you would use to make a rose. If you look at the one cupcake in the upper left hand corner it looks like they started there. Looks like a bunch of wiggles going inwards. I bet the bigger the tip the better it will look.

And one more; really pretty. I think 2D makes the prettiest cupcake swirls.

And if you start on the outside, and go towards the inside, you get this, same tip:
