What's a Great Drizzling Tool for Caramel and Other Ingredients?

[sivlepa]

Recipes will often suggest using the V-shaped cutter as a drizzling tool for ingredients like caramel. What do you find to work well as a drizzling tool bedsides this?

I don't think you can beat the v-shaped cutter. Seriously. Works like a charm.

Small Bamboo Spoons in a pinch. But the V-shaped Cutter is the best.

Skinny scraper can work too, but the v-shaped is really good.

Decorator bottles!

Great ideas, ladies. Thanks.
Might the mini-whipper work?

 

[raebates]

Depends on the consistency of what you're drizzling.

Just not for the BBQ sauce in the Aloha Pizza! I thought that would be a good idea and I now have a orange-ish stained bottle. Bummer!

I use a sandwich baggy and cut the corner for the BBQ sauce....

I know, I know, that's what the recipe says......but I thought the DB would be better and show off a product............so much for that great idea!

I am so glad that you posted this, because I was going to to use the Decorator Bottles at a show tomorrow for the Aloha Pizza.

Good to know!

Yeah, me too, but I soaked it with bleach water and it's better than it was. Still not as clear as the others, but...

oh and ps, I think a baggie with the corner cut off always works, it just doesn't show any tools!

You can demonstrate the meaure all cup if you are doing the baggy. Put the baggy in the cup and fill with whatever you are drizzling, twist baggy, and clip with a twixit clip, then cut a small cut in the baggy with the kitchen shears then drizzle. you will show a whole lot more money in tools then if you just used the v-shape cutter.

I sell a ton of v-shape cutters by showing bell peppers or a hollowed out orange with the v-shape cuts and telling them that they can fill the peepper or fruit with dip for a cute presentation.

Paula Deen used a whisk to drizzle I just saw as her show came on today. I had never thought of that!

The Mini Whisk would be ideal.

I often use the egg separator as a drizzling tool. It works very well for chocolate and caramel.

i use the bbq basting bottle to put the bbq sauce on the aloha pizza as it allows you to drizzle it on the top of the pizza as well as spread it out on the bottom of the pizza. Thanks

For those with stained decorator bottles: Just keep that one for things that might stain and tell customers that, yes, some things stain them but it doesn't change how they work. Not really a big deal. I would use the stained one for frosting with red food coloring.

I just bring one bottle with me to shows so they can see it anyway.
