    If it works like an ordinary piping bag, then this one should do. If not, you'll need to give us more details on what it is!

    Thanks...

    Sorry I didn't really explain fully. The mixture goes in the piping tube and you have different nozzles for the end. They should come out like those biscuits you can get in the round tins.

    I tried a search using 'biscuit gun' as I thought it might work a bit like a sugar gun...

    Try this - if it's the right kind of thing, then search using biscuit gun or biscuit press!

    Hi vivw, this is the recipe i use for piping biscuits, i just use a normal piping bag and a eight star nozzle.

    8oz softened butter
    2oz icing sugar sifted
    8oz plain flour

    Cream the icing sugar and butter until light abd fluffy, then add the flour a spoonful at a time. pipe into required shapes.

    I bought one of those cookie piping things from pampered chef, i had to return it, i could not get it to work. Good luck and let us know how you get on.
    Happy baking:j
