So the Lékué cupcake kit is a utensil which I have not been able to resist for long. By "Kit" Lékué includes a silicone pastry bag, 6 mussels and a small cookbook (much less effective than the cupcakes albums collection Larousse). In the end the pastry bag is the element essential to this kit, and it is sometimes possible to find cheaper lorsquelle alone (do not confuse it with the decoration pocket Lékué much smaller).
Now jOperation this product for many years, and it is still an essential element in my production cupcakes. I am the User especially to spread my sponge cake batter into small molds, which saves me a lot of time when I mass production (birthdays, parties etc). For decoration (icing), I returned to my old piston purchased less than 10 super market.
Indeed, the Lékué pocket has two major drawbacks: the first is the loss of your raw material. As silicone pouch walls are pretty thick and rather large pocket, it is difficult dexpulser lorsquelle your frosting is not completely full. So, if you have prepared just enough icing to the number of cupcakes, you end up with bare cakes. The second disadvantage is the permeability of the plastic cover which is screwed on top to close the bag. When your material is too thin or too thick The reverse, it overflows the sides of the lid. As you are forced DPress with both hands to push out your icing, you will turn around.
Jai always a certain pride, may be infantile to have a utensil that I consider luxurious, and pocket Lékué bush is one of those tools. But we must recognize that the usefulness compared to the price and efficiency over other low-end products, make it an expensive gadget. Lékué therefore still work to do for the quality / price is really attractive.
