Step 3: Pipe the Bandages
Fit piping bag with a flat tip (Wilton #47 or basketweave tip, smooth side up).
Fill with white buttercream.
Pipe short horizontal/diagonal lines across cupcake, leaving gaps to mimic bandage overlap.
Layer unevenly for realistic texture.
Step 4: Finish the Mummy Look
Ensure eyes peek clearly between bandages.
Add a few random overlapping lines for extra detail.
Recommended Piping Tips
Wilton #47 (basketweave tip, smooth side up) → classic bandage look
• Wilton #44 or #45 → also great for neat flat strips
• Round tip (#12) → pipe thicker bandages if flat tips aren’t available
