Hi all!

I have purchased a 8" dummie. I wanted something that I can practice my piping skills on. Can I do this with styrofoam? I want to practive borders and sways with buttercream. Can I wipe the BC off the styrofoam and re-pipe??


Thanks

Sure you can. You can also pipe on your cake pan upside down

I would wrap the dummy in plastic wrap or something first, because it will absorb the BC eventually, especially if you want to reuse the BC over and over for practice! that way your dummy will last longer and you won't get styrofoam in your BC!! icon_biggrin.gif
