Great Starter Kit,
July 7, 2000 By A Customer
This review is from: Wilton Basic Cake Decorating Set (Kitchen)
I am a beginner at cake decorating and was overwhelmed with all the equipment and instructions I found at various craft stores while trying to purchase Wilton products. The Wilton 25 piece basic cake decorating set is perfect for the beginner interested in getting started. The set comes with the needed basic equipment, and is cheaper than if you were to buy all the pieces individually. The instruction book gives helps you to pinpoint mistakes. I found it easy to use despite the fact that I've had no formal instruction or class on decorating.

I am new to cupcakes and decorative techniques and found this
kit very easy to use!
Here's the breakdown:
COLORS - Red, Yellow, Blue and Green
Okay, they really mean it when they say use a very small amount.
These are super intense colors.
I grabbed a small amount of the red because I wanted to create
a pink frosting but it turned really red!
Trust me - just dip a toothpick into the coloring and swirl.
Don't pick up a piece of the coloring.
These are concentrated colors.
Much easier to add color than to add more frosting.
Also note, these gel based colors are better
than liquid food coloring as the liquid version can
alter the consistency of your frosting.
TIPS - 5 tips included (See photos for macro shot)
3: small round tip for writing
32: large star
10: for petals
352: leaves
16: small star

This is a great kit. I'm not a huge baker, but when I do bake I like to make things look nice. This kit has enough tips to allow you to make all kinds of shapes, most of which I'm not artsy enough to actually pull off. The disposable pastry bags are nice, but I do wish they were a little bit bigger. All in all, you can't beat it for this price.
