AtecoFlower Nail, Extra-Large Rose, 3" Diameter

Functional for piping flowers

As a professional cake decorator, I’ve used many flower nails over the years, but the extra-large Ateco flower nail has quickly become one of my favorites—especially when piping big, bold buttercream blooms like peonies, roses, or chrysanthemums.The size is perfect for larger flowers that need a wider base to build structure. It gives me plenty of surface area to work with, and I don’t feel cramped or like my petals are falling off the edge. It’s also fantastic for building more complex or multi-layered flowers where a smaller nail just won’t cut it.The quality is top-notch.It’s sturdy stainless steel, doesn’t bend or wobble while piping, and spins smoothly between your fingers. It has just the right weight—light enough to be comfortable, but heavy enough to feel stable. I’ve washed it several times and had zero issues with rust or wear.Pro tip: Use parchment squares for easy flower transfer, especially for freezer storage or transferring to cupcakes or cakes.Pros:✔️ Excellent size for larger flowers and petals✔️ Sturdy and well-balanced for steady piping✔️ Easy to clean and rust-resistant✔️ Great for both beginners and pros✔️ Makes piping complex flowers much easierFinal Thoughts:If you’re piping anything more advanced than a basic rose, or just want more control and space for your flowers, this is a must-have tool. It’s now one of my go-to pieces in my decorating kit, and I’d recommend it to any serious cake artist.

This large nail will help me make the desired size for sunflowers and other larger flowers. However the nail was bent but I was able to bend it back.

Perfect. My husband made my sons cake. Using a 12x18x3 pan. Just put this in the middle for even cooking.

Excelente tamaño pero el embalaje no es bueno y vino doblado en el borde un poco

The nail itself appears fine. A bit thin and flimsy, but fine. The problem is and how Amazon ships. I received the flower nail in an unpadded envelope. It was bent in half. I completed the Amazon return form and where indicated reason for the exchange I wrote that the flower nail was bent in half and that I wanted the replacement sent in a box so it would not be damaged. 10 days later, I received the new flower nail in another unpadded envelope. Again, it was bent in multiple places. When I went to the return/exchange page, because it was already a replacement I could not exchange it again. Not that I think I would want another one bent in an unpadded envelope. Overall I am very disappointed, it should have been a great product, instead it was a waste of my time.

Perfect for all sizes of roses and flowers I would recommend this to my friends and family

love it! Works great!I have used it several times already, and with the Holidays coming, it will get plenty of work!
