Then I used the <span style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wilton.com\/round-decorating-tip-10-carded\/418-10.html\">Wilton round tip #10<\/a><\/strong><\/span> to pipe a border around the base.)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Next, I grabbed 3 of the<span style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wilton.com\/white-icing-pouch-with-tips\/704-4749.html\"> icing bags<\/a> <\/strong><\/span>that were in my spring baking kit &#8211; <span style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wilton.com\/white-icing-pouch-with-tips\/704-4749.html\">white<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, <span style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wilton.com\/pink-icing-pouch-with-tips\/704-4298.html\">pink<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, &amp; <span style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ffb9c7;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wilton.com\/green-icing-pouch-with-tips\/704-4747.html\">green<\/a><\/strong><\/span>! I had never used these pouches before, but they came with a round and a star tip. I used the star tip on each bag to pipe all around the eggs, making sure to close any gaps between them.
