Do you have a picture of the look you want?
The majority of swirls are the 1M, there's videos on you tube for the technique.

I use a 1m (open star) and 2d (closed star).
I have seen some really pretty cupcakes on here done with the ateco tips. I thought I had one saved in my fav's to show an example, but I don't anymore.

It'snot the tip that doesn't make the swirl, it's how you use it.

If you can post a photo of what you want, then we can tell you how to achieve that look.

I use 1m all the time. I love the look.
