Ateco 870 - 10 Piece French Star Tube Set, Stainless Steel Pastry Tips, Sizes 0 - 9

Very good quality.

Great set of tips. Useful for cookies, cake decorating, filling deviled eggs etc. They come stacked in a nice storage tube.

I bought these to round out my piping tip set. Thomas Keller calls for them in his book BOUCHON BAKERY to make eclairs, amongst other items. I find having the full set gives me a range of options as a pastry chef for sizes and applications. These are sturdy and sharp enough to actually cut you and draw blood, so please use caution when prying them out of the end of a piping bag. Ateco tips are made of stainless steel and always cut with precision. Note that in the identifying numbers stamped on each tip that the 8 refers to the fact that it is a large pastry tip. This means it wont fit a standard small Wilton or Ateco coupler. The second number refers to the shape the tip is cut into. in this case, the 6 means its a fine-toothed star, aka French Star. The third number is 0-9, referring to its position in the graduated sizes, 0 being smallest, and 9 being largest, in that series of tip. NOTE AGAIN- THESE WILL NOT FIT A STANDARD WILTON OR ATECO SMALL COUPLER. Also, if you arent using a disposable plastic or parchment made bag, and youre using a canvas or multi-use plastic bag, youll need one dedicated to this general size of tip. Ive owned sets of the stainless Ateco tips for over 10 years. Keep them clean, dry, and safe after each use, and theyll last you a lifetime. Youre more likely to lose them in the garbage disposal, by accident, by theft, or accidentally knocking them into a trash can, long before you ever lose them to wearing out.

the tips i ordered were awesome. they came in a perfect variety of sizes and work great for a variety of things like piping mashed potatoes and veg. purees; not to mention perfect for various designs for frosting cakes. i recommend these to everyone who enjoys cooking and or baking. the best part is they are stainless steel so they last forever. Easy to clean, and the hold their shape way better than plastic of tin.

Ateco makes some of the best pastry tips in the buisness. Warning do not stick your fingers through them, even playing around, Ive seen it and it hurts.
