Here’s a little more about the 71 tip from Ateco on Pastry Sampler: Ateco 71 Asymmetrical Star. These tips get little praise and very little notoriety but can be real workhorses in the pastry shop. You can find all 6 of these tips in the Pastry Sampler Shop – Asymmetrical Stars 71 to 76.
Here are some piping examples of five different star tips. These star tips are all standard size, and fit with a standard small coupler. 75 – Asymmetrical Star – These star tips have star points only on one side of the tip. 21 – …read more

With the discontinuing of the 402 pastry tip from Bakery Crafts and Parrish’s Magic Line (who I both purchased them from wholesale in the past), I’ve been inundated with questions on where to find this tip, or how to replace this tip, or if there is even an alternative out there for this tip.
Wilton does make a 402, but it is a little different from the 402 I used to sell to my customers. It is less blunt at the top and more pointed, and the opening doesn’t quite have the deep arc that the other 402 had. So, I’m not sure I can recommend this one as a replacement since there are such differences here. Which is why I have not included the Wilton 402 in my Ruffle Border set – the new Ruffle Border set only contains the 401 and the 403 combined as a set.
Below is a comparison for you to check out. Hope this helps out if you are thinking about the Wilton, and want to know how it compares to the old 402. It’s a good tip for ruffled borders, just not the same.
