Instructions
1
Making the petal
Use a #103 piping tip, holding it at a 45° angle. Touch the wide end of the tip to the flower nail, with the narrow end slightly above the nail surface. Starting from the center of the flower nail, squeeze out the first petal while moving the piping tip toward the edge of the nail and rotating the nail 1/5 of a turn. When returning to the center, release pressure and slightly bend the tip upward to form a cup shape. When the wide end touches the center, stop squeezing and lift away.
2
Repeat making petals
Repeat step 1 to make four more petals.
3
Making the stamen
Use a #1 piping tip to pipe out thin stamens.
