How Do You Fill Your Easy Accent (R) Decorator?

[jessinthekitchen]

I usually use a ziploc bag to fill it with whatever filling I'm using but I don't want to do that at shows (I think it looks wasteful)... how do you fiill it?

Medium Scoop works best!

I'm with Keith, medium scoop!

I use the medium scoop to fill it - neat and quick. If I forget to pack the med. scoop, I use the small bamboo spoon. I was surprised by your use of a ziplock bag. I can't imagine how that would not be totally messy and extra work but then we all do what we are comfortable with.

A lot of the recipes suggest that!

I never thought of the medium scoop!

Another cheer for the medium scoop!

 

[leftymac]

It's the perfect size -- almost as if they were made for each other!

I never thought of the scoop...I always use the skinny scraper...

I've seen recipes suggest the ziplock to put the recipe in to pipe it onto whatever you're making but I haven't noticed instructions to fill a zip lock to fill the EAD.

Sometimes I use the Medium Scoop...but lately I have been using the skinny scraper. Usually I am filling the EAD with Cool Whip, so I tend to just grab the skinny scraper.

It was late last night and I misread!

 

[jessinthekitchen]

Yeah- I just dump whipped cream or whatever into the ziploc bag and cut the corner... put that into the end of the EAD and then squeeze... it fills up nicely and there isn't a mess.. I just don't want customers to think, "Why would I need to buy the EAD if I can just use the bag?"

Definitely going to try the medium scoop- and I always have it with me in my tool turn about.

Medium scoop--great cross sell/upsell item.

Medium scoop here too!

Medium scoop, too much of a tree hugger to waste a plastic bag!

 

[Intrepid_Chef]

I don't have the medium scoop, but suspect the small one works almost as well.Used the skinny scraper, micro scraper or bamboo spreader before!

The large one works OK, too. So does a spoon. Just curious, what recipes say to fill it using a ziplock bag? That IS wasteful of both time & ziplocks! I'm just asking because I've only ever seen the medium scoop mentioned in recipes. A scoop is easier than a spoon for some mixtures. If its really gooey, the nudge from the scoop makes it fall down into the EAD easier than pushing it with your finger off a spoon.

A lot of the new consultant recipes and the trifle recipes call for a zip lock bag!

I used the scoop for the first time and it works wonderful!!!! DUH!!!
