Here is one more item that after the first use it will find it's way to the back of your junk drawer. Sure, it's designed to keep your muffin pans clean while filling them with cupcake batter, but a good ice cream scoop will do the EXACT same thing. What's going to get messy is your counter as you try to fill this squeeze bottle. Just picture it, you either need a funnel and a spoon and all that mess to fill this bottle, or you try to pour it into the bottle and it goes all over the counter. In the long run, you end up making a large mess while trying to avoid a small mess. Just go with the scoop you see the chefs on TV use, it's a wonderful item. I do it this way all the time. Leave the squeezy bottles for paint and icing.
