If you squeezed a tablespoon of margarine through one of those hand-held piping bags with a star-shaped nozzle, this might be the buttery frill you'd plunk onto a cake. Somewhere in my collection I also have an excellent pair of bright red buttons just like this, but for some reason I think I prefer this creamy one-in-a-million. Pure vintage Bakelite, this old thing is the duck's quack. Circa 1925.
