I am going to the store tomorrow to get the last of the stuff I need to make my cakes for next week.

Can you tell me what tip/tips were used to make this cake?

I know its star tip but have the slightest clue as to what number.lol

It's hard to tell it looks smaller than a star tip but the picture needs to be more close up can you zoom it in and crop and then post it may be that might get you some more help good luck with your cake

you could use the triple star tip for the larger areas would save you some time JMO

It looks like it could be a 16, but the triple star would save a lot of time. The stars come out about the size of an 18 tip

Thank you for the idea. I will get a triple star.! thanks for the tip on which one to get.

It will save me time, because I am planning on making two cakes and stacking them together and Im using roating pans that are 17.2x12.7x2.7

Make sure you don't feel your bag too much is better to continue to refill your bag than to have a very sore arm and hands later you are about to take on a large job of stars!!!!

icingandsprinkles thank you for the tip..... I know its going to be one heck of a job lol.
I am combining this cake with this one pictured here.
I like the texture of the stars look but I like the look of the crayons on this box. But I am going to add on the crayons the little black lines that are on crayolas,call me crazy. lol

lipbalmcolletor: I think I made a mistake. Try searching using the word crayons and the picture like your without stars will show up. make sure you add the "s" at the end of the word to make it plural.
