I love it, since I can ice a cake cleaner than with out it especially if it's a chocolate cake. It's also faster. Last year I iced and decorated 30 small cakes (6") and I finished in less than 2 hours thanks to my icer tip.

Do you use the big cake icer tip? Why or why not?

Thanks!

I love my icer tip, can do it without, but I figure, WHY? It does take getting used to but I love mine.

NO... I have an immense dislike for it (or rather refilling it part). When you have to ice 12-15 cakes in a row and fast ... refilling can become annoying.
And I agree with Tammi: it needs to be 21" bag, 16" way too small.
I find it easy to ice with spatula only if there is anough icing to start with (the excess can be easily removed on an end)
