We use this tip for choux pastry and it's perfect for us.
One of my favorite tips. Perfect size for my jumbo cupcakes! Good quality and it gives my cupcakes a sophisticated cake. I recommend it 100%
Ateco makes really high quality French star piping tips that are cut deeply enough to pipe out frosting with really defined lines. Just be sure to make lots of whatever frosting you plan to pipe. These extra large piping tips pipe out quite a lot of frosting at once.
I find Ateco the best brand for Pastry tips, great quality and finish. This model is perfect to decorate cakes and cupcakes or anything you would like. Will definitely buy more tips from Ateco.
I used this to pipe cactus for a smaller variety on a cactus/succulent cake. It works well for icing cupcakes and for borders also. Durable and good quality.

This pastry tube does wonders. This is the French star#8 which makes the most wonderful decorating designs. This tube is best for large decorative boarders! The icing comes out smoothly and all you do is move in a up and down motion to help creative a beautiful design!
I use this tip for Standard cupcakes normally. However it works well on tortes and cakes on the top piped in a circular motion. They work great and fit with a medium sized coupler.
The French Star is my favorite tip for frosting cupcakes, and it is so quick and easy since the opening is so large! The tip itself is very durable and cleans up easily.
