🧠 What is it?
Dr Oetker White Pipes 4 × 19 g (76 g) are flexible tubes containing white icing, designed for easy and creative decorating of gingerbread, cakes, tarts, biscuits and other desserts. The icing has a runny consistency suitable for ‘writing’ and decorating, so you can use it to create lines, dots, lettering or other decorative elements.

✔️ 4 tubes (4 × 19 g) – each tube has a fine tip for precise application and easy decorating.
✔️ Practical 76 g pack – enough for several baking sessions or creative projects.
✔️ Easy to use – the tubes fit comfortably in your hand and can even be used by children (aged 3 and over).

🍰 How to use
-
Before use, dip the tube briefly in warm water and gently squeeze it – this will make the icing easier to squeeze out through the tip.
-
Unscrew the cap and gently squeeze the tube as if you were writing with a pencil.
-
Create patterns, dots, borders or lettering directly onto the surface of cakes, gingerbread, cupcakes or biscuits.
-
After decorating, leave the icing to dry – usually for about 20 minutes.
-
Care: After use, clean the tube and close the cap to prevent the icing from drying out.
💡 Tip: If you want a stronger colour or a different shade, you can lightly tint the applied white icing with edible food colouring or add sprinkles.
📦 Storage
• Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat.
• Do not expose to high temperatures – the tubes may soften at temperatures above those recommended.
