The video is nice, but the end result looks nothing like the flower shown at the beginning of the video.

How can I get my hands on that tip? I have searched and searched and only found 1 place in Australia and they don't ship to the US. Perhaps I should make my own, although I don't know how :) ... any ideas???

I would think you could achieve the same or similar look with a 1M tip. It's a big fat swirl type tip too. Hope that works for you!

Nope ... 1M is just not big enough ... it is a similar look, but not the same - I'm looking for something bigger. I know Ateco makes bigger tips (809 round and 829 star) so I am looking at those. Hmmm ... thanks for the idea, though.

Ateco makes a Pastry Bag Tips set that has large tips. You can buy it online at a bunch of places - look on Cooking.com and search for "Assorted Pastry Bag Tips" and you'll see the set. I love using those tips for big fat swirls on top of cupcakes. I just gave the set as a wedding gift, along with a bunch of other assorted cupcake making goodies.
