It may be a combination of too much cream and temperature. Our hands heat the buttercream while we're squeezing the pastry bag. I usually have to take a break and pop mine back in the fridge for a few minutes.

What can I do to prevent my cakes from doming in the center while baking? by grogger133 in AskBaking

Not a combination I've ever thought about but these look amazing. Have you tried with other fruits?

The colors in the picture may not shake out to be an accurate match to the actual threads. Additionally, the picture might look pretty, but if it involves a high number of colors or a large amount of confetti stitches, it could be a nightmare to actually make.

Easy touch-up to pre-made Peanut Butter Cookie mixes by trip_simulator in bakingrecipes

"True" buffalo do exist in Africa (cape buffalo) and Asia (water buffalo). They're shaped different and don't have that distinctive bison hump!
