A few years back I took a class at Michael's craft store & the
products used were from Wilton. I just checked out their website
(wilton.com, of course!) and they have all the supplies you need
online, but I did notice they only ship to the U.S. The tips are in
the cake supplies category under "tips", and the ones you are looking
for are called "rounds". The collars are actually called couplers and
are in the "tip tools" section. They also have decorating bags, both
disposable and reusable. I have some of the reusable ones, but have
never used the disposable. I imagine they are pretty heavy duty
though, because icing is usually thicker than henna paste.
I guess I'm gonna have to try this method. I've been hesitant because
I really wasn't all that great at the fancy cake decorating stuff,
but I think henna might be easier. The only thing I'm wondering about
is the amount of icing/henna that would have to go in the bag. I only
henna myself & sometimes the kiddo, so I don't make a very big batch
at a time. When I used the tips & couplers for cakes, it seemed like
I ended up with a big glob of unusable icing left in the tip and the
coupler area of the bag. It wasn't much for icing, but with henna, a
tablespoon or so might be half a batch!
Hope all this made sense!

Happy hennaing!!
