They're well-sized for frosting large cakes and cupcakes as well as being useful for big projects – or, cut them down if you need to. Don't worry about the quality either, as these are strong bags and won't break whilst you use them. 

You'll certainly get your money's worth with the number of extras in this set. Tt comes with three scrapers to help you achieve a professional finish when covering your cake with buttercream icing. There's also a cleaning brush, which is handy for cleaning out your nozzles thoroughly. 

In addition, there are 24 tips included, which are reassuringly durable as they are made from stainless steel. The reusable plastic bags are non-stick, so your icing will come out of the tip easily, and they're soft for a comfortable hold. A great buy for a beginner!

This cotton set includes three different-sized bags of 10, 12 and 14 inches, so all your decorating needs should be covered. Thanks to the comfortable cloth outer layer, these are really easy to use and control. 

These bags are high quality and reusable too, so you can keep washing them without causing damage. All the bags also come with a hook to hang so you can better organise and store your baking tools and accessories. 

These bags from reliable baking brand Wilton are a top-quality option ideal for anyone who already has a coupler and all the nozzles they need. You're not paying for any unneeded extras here, and you get a fair amount of bags for your money. They're also thin plastic, so the bags will be easy to squeeze for simple application.

They're ideal for special occasions as they're 12 inches long, which is perfect for intricate decorations. Plus, you won't have the hassle of having to cut them down to the right size. 

Are you a beginner looking to make cakes or pastries? This piping set comes with a massive 24 nozzles and a coupler, so you'll have everything you need to get started! It also includes a box with dividers to store the different tips, so nothing will get lost.

It's easy to handle too as the silicone isn't too thick, so you can easily squeeze the icing out. Plus, the piping bag is dishwasher safe for easy, mess-free cleaning. 

This piping bag is made from heavyweight cotton felt, which gives it excellent durability. Pro bakers or pastry chefs will get a lot of use out of this one, as it will last years. It also has a hanging loop at the top to store it on a utensils rack so it won't get dusty in a drawer.

The only downside is that these bags are more expensive per unit, so they may not be in everyone's budget range. However, there's a wide range of sizes to select from, and if you do require decorating equipment for regular use, you'll benefit from the higher quality.  

If the main things you require a piping bag for are icing cakes and cupcakes, this Wilton set is an excellent pick. As well as six disposable bags, two nozzles and a three-colour coupler are included, so you can get creative with different shades and textures. 

It would be better if the bags included were reusable, but once you have the nozzles you can always top up with a refill set, or purchase some non-disposable ones if you find yourself baking more often! 

These disposable piping bags are textured and non-slip which makes them easy to grip, giving you better control and, hopefully, a professional finish! Most supermarkets only sell piping bag sets, so these are a unique find that you can purchase as a refill set with your weekly shop.

You can also cut the bags to whatever size you like, making these a good choice if you want something for multiple decorating tasks. Sadly, like most low-cost disposable piping bags, these aren't the best option environmentally as they're non-recyclable, including the packaging. 

Here's a unique piping set that comes bags, nozzles and a coupler. The bag can hold two colours, so you're able to create a two-toned icing swirl effect. This is ideal for creating an intricate design with minimum effort.

They are advertised by the seller as easy to use, but unfortunately we wouldn't recommend this set for an absolute beginner as it can be fiddly and difficult to navigate. 

Do you want to order your piping kit and ingredients at the same time? Well, now you can with these piping bags from Tesco. They even come with a handy how-to guide in the product description to help beginners. 

This is a really affordable kit too, and the piping bags are high quality. However, owing to the budget nature, the nozzles included are plastic. This means they are a little flimsy compared to other stainless steel options and will be harder to control.
