Ateco 829 Piping Tip

This is an open star tip, which is the industry standard for creating classic piped borders, swirls on cupcakes, and decorative shells. Because of its size, it is particularly effective for larger, fuller swirls rather than tiny, intricate details.

Yes, the Ateco 829 fits most standard piping bags. Depending on the size of your coupler, you may need a large coupler to secure it properly, or you can simply drop it into a disposable bag and trim the tip to fit.

Yes, the seamless design prevents icing from getting caught in ridges or seams, which ensures a smooth, consistent flow. It also makes the tip significantly easier to clean since there are no hidden crevices for frosting to dry in.

The opening diameter is 0.69 inches, making it a relatively large tip. It is best suited for projects where you want substantial, bold piping, such as topping cupcakes or creating large borders on cakes.

While it is dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water and a small brush to ensure all icing residue is removed from the star grooves. This helps maintain the precision of the metal edges over time.
