Pressure Control (Squeezing the Bag)


Pressure Control is the third of the 3 KEYS TO SUCCESS in cake decorating.
The size and uniformity of your icing designs are affected by the amount of pressure you apply to the bag and the steadiness of the press-how you squeeze and relax your grip on the decorating bag.  Your goal is to learn to apply pressure so consistently that you can move the bag in a free and easy glide while just the right amount of icing flows through the tip.  Practice will help you achieve this control.

Option 1:  Light Pressure 







Option 2:  Medium Pressure







Option 3:  Heavy Pressure
