I really like the way this border looks. I'm thinking it is a reverse shell border....just close together???

The creator hasnt uploaded since '08 so I'm hoping to hear back from her to.

She may be left handed ...That is why it probably appears reversed.

It didn't really look like a shell border to me, more like she did a swirl instead of the shell as she piped it.

I'd go with reverse shell myself.

I looked at some of her other cakes and it looks like she used that method allot. MMM, wish there was a side view of the cake.

Thanks!!!!

It is definitely the reverse shell.

Definately not left handed, mine goes just the opposite of that.

@MikeRowesHunny-OHHHHH I love that cake!!!! I'm guessing the star tip is a larger one. Which # would you reccomend?

I agree with tiggy2 about not being done by a lefty - mine also goes in the opposite direction.
