  2. Fold in half diagonally to form a triangle.
  3. Working with the long side facing away from you, pull one corner into the centre.
  4. Hold in place while bending in the other corner and wrapping tightly to form a cone shape.

    How to fill a piping bag
  1. The end of your bag needs to be measured and cut to fit the nozzle. Drop the cone shaped base, narrow end down, into the pastry bag, forcing it as far as it will go. The piping bag is ready to use.
  2. Now, you need a tall glass or narrow bowl to hold the bag while filling and to place the filled pastry bag when not in use. An empty pringle's potato chip can works well too.
  3. Once you have that, drop the bag into the glass or can, drape the top of the bag over the rim, as it will keep it open for you while you fill it. Also, place bag, tip side down, in the glass or can when not in use.
