Hi all,

Just wondering if anyone knows of anywhere you can get an icing syringe for filling éclairs. I know there's a place up a Steven's Green, but looking for alternative shops too.

Thanks,

Will

TK Maxx often have them, and I have seen them in homestore and more.

Wouldn't mind getting one myself think I saw them in homevalue hardware but not sure must check. Would a regular syringe do the job for the mo. ie obviously the non needley ones you can get in the chemist in various sizes.

I got one in kitchen complements in the end. It was only €5.50, which seems like deacent value. Cheers for the info!!!

Saw a pill plunger thing at the vets today might do the trick lol had to bits at the top to place your fingers so would be pretty accurate.

Was in a shop today and almost squeeled they stock icing syringes with a wee pink plunger and also an fancy lookin icing pen thingy and a potato ricer plan to buy one a week.

It's the kind of shop that has everything from envalopes to baking stuff to bubbles, if you know of any shops in your area like that might be worth rummaging through the shelves.

Where did you find this useful shop? I eventually ordered my icing tips from Amazon. I find disposable piping bags a lot easier to use than the cloth ones, and the syringes are basically useless. Maybe if you do a lot of very fine work the syringes are more useful? Anthony

I guess you're right astains, lot of gadgety things aren't always needed but that makes me want them more lol.
There's one of these shops in Thurles town on the main st.

I'm pure useless at icing so no amount of gadgets will help but they're so shiney!
