Super Rookie Question-Pastry Bags
Decorating By VCVCCupcakes Updated 20 Apr 2011 , 1:52am by cheatize
Where can I get really big disposable pastry bags and tips to fit them and what are they called???
Sorry for such a rookie question. I do a lot of cupcakes and after refilling a bag 5x it gets pretty gross and greasy and I am annoyed.
Thanks for the help.

I buy my decorating bags on ebay, imported from China.... i think the last bunch was 100 bags for £3.99 (before shipping), this way i dont have to worry about washing and re-using. I did have some re-useable bags but split a few when trying to clean them so gave up!
Not sure what tips you mean but disposable bags all the way!

I get my Wilton 16" bags and star tip (1M) from Michaels. Bulk Barn carries them as well. Or you could just make them from parchment paper triangles. HTH
I was not sure if the Bigger size bags required larger tips. I see the big big bags on TV shows. I have seen Bronwyn Webber use them I think.
All bags should come without a hole- reusable or disposable. You cut the end to fit the coupler.
Have you seen the "frosting plug" thread on the Cake Decorating forum? This is a really great way to add more icing to the pastry bags. The first time I used it, I was hooked.
