Kitchen Tools

Couplers are optional tools for your pastry bags that allow you to switch pastry tips after the filling is placed into a pastry bag. Pastry tips can be still used without using a coupler, but you will lose the chance to change tips after the pastry bag is filled (because prior to filling you will need to slide onto a pastry bag).

Any good pastry tip set has at least one to two couplers included in packaging, but it is still good to purchase at least one or two extra in case the plastic part of your original coupler’s breaks. Since the pastry tips are coming in 3 major sizes (small, medium, and large) make sure that you buy a coupler of the same size to match your pastry tip.
