Frequently Asked Questions

What consistency buttercream should I use with the ruffle tip?
A medium-stiff buttercream works best for the Loyal Ruffle 88 tip. Too soft and the ruffles won't hold their shape; too stiff and they may crack. A classic American buttercream at medium stiffness gives great results.

Does this tip fit standard piping bags?
Yes. The Loyal Standard Piping Tip Ruffle 88 fits standard-sized piping bags and is compatible with Loyal brand couplers, making it easy to swap between tips mid-cake.
