How to make an Icing Bag

Here are the instructions on how to make an icing bag:
.
I like to use disposable icing bags but as I only needed a tiny bit of each colour, I made my own.
.
---------------------------------
.
Take a square of baking paper.
.
Fold it in half diagonally and remove any excess.
Cut the fold so you have 2 x triangles.
.

.

Take a triangle and with the point facing towards you, take a side corner and fold it over and tuck it under.
.

.
Do the same with the other side.
.

.
Snip the point off and drop in your nozzle.
Fold down the paper to secure the bag.
.

.
Put the bag into a glass or cup to secure whilst you pour in the icing.
.

.
Fold the end of the bag to secure to stop the icing running out.
.

.
Repeat for all your colours and enjoy!
