Paris Stick

You'll need a pastry bag for this pastry. If you don't have one, Chef Ernie Babaran of ISCAHM suggests you make one by cutting a square sheet of greaseproof paper. Fold diagonally in half to form a triangle, then roll into a cone. Secure with stapler or paper clip. You can also use a resealable plastic bag—just snip one corner of the bag. Star tips are available in baking supply stores.
