This does indeed sound like a wonderful tip. In my opinion, it would work
very well for muffin or pancake batter, maybe even for meringue, if you make
the hole in the bag bigger for the thicker meringue.
Certainly, it should also work for cookies substituting for a cookie press;
or for that matter, filling puffs.
Thank you so much, Shannon, for bringing this tip to our attention. I
always shied away from making cup cakes just for the reason you mentioned -
that the batter would mess up the papers.
Now with this tip you presented, I will definitely give it a try.

Subject: [CnD] cupcake tips
My daughter is having cupcakes instead of a wedding cake. I am making the
cupcakes and I have been researching how to make them look perfect. I
found a tip on line for filling the cupcake papers. The suggestion was to
use an icing bag to fill them so as not to get batter on the sides of the
paper cups. I thought a zip lock bag would work just as good, just cut a
hole in the corner of the bag at the bottom, when finished throw away the
bag. My daughter will be helping me so I will get her to fill the cups.
But the next time I make muffins I am going to give it a try. Just
wondering if anyone else has heard of this or try it when making cupcakes?
