Can someone explain to me how this is done? What size bottle are you guys using? Is it only the tip and ring that attach? I'm lost. icon_redface.gif

I tried those bottles for awhile and dont' use them anymore. Just a PITA to me.

I use disposable pastry bags. QUick, simple and easy. No clean up.

I guess I'm backward, but I prefer the bottles over the bags because I can zap the bottles in the microwave (on low) to heat them up a little and then keep them in a cup of hot water in my crockpot or electric frying pan. I guess I like the sturdiness of the bottles...and I tried zapping a disposable bag in the microwave on low and it got too hot in one spot and ruined my bag and chocolate! icon_biggrin.gif

There are such a lot of very smart and creative people here, I'd love to know what methods anyone else uses...

I first used the little bottles at a local cc'ers house a few weeks back when we made cookies. We added thinned royal icing to the bottles and used this to make the monkey cookies in my photos. It was so easy. I went out and bought a bucket of 12 of them to use for everything! icon_biggrin.gif

I've tried the candy melts in the bags and it just didn't work for me, it would get hard too quick and with no real easy way to reheat it without it burning or something else happening it just wasn't good lol. The little bowls weren't good either cause they don't hold much.... but these bottles I like for everything! icon_biggrin.gif
