  • Patent number: 5114044
    Abstract: Two or more plastic or fabric pastry tubes of the general type used by chefs for decorating pastry with icing or other materials or dispensing pureed vegetables or the like are each provided with separate nozzles which are semi-circular in cross section when two tubes are used and appropriately shaped when more than two are used. The nozzles are held together while the tubes are squeezed, thereby dispensing plural colored ribbons of icing or vegetables in closely adjacent designs. The nozzles may be held assembled by a ring. In one modification, spouts fit in the lower ends of the tubes and project therefrom as semi-cylindrical externally threaded projects held together. A first nut secures the tubes to their respective spouts. A second nut secures a pair of nozzles to their respective spouts. The upper ends of the tubes may be detachably held together by Velcro-like patches. The tubes are preferably of the conventional conical shape and may be disposable or reusable.
