Learn how to make an origami cake slice box. The lid comes off the top – you could put real cake in there, add cute origami or papercraft decorations on top.
Quite a few people have suggested a cake themed origami, I had actually made this box last year, it was a carrot though.. so it’s now a cake slice.
It could also be a pizza, cheese or other triangular shaped object.
This origami cake slice box would be great as wedding favours, party favour boxes.
The lid is made from the same size as the bottom, with a layer in the middle holding it together as the ‘cake filling’.
You could also make the lid by using larger paper and it would just fit on top like a normal box.

Level: ★★★★☆
You will need:
– 1 sheet of square paper for lid
– 1 sheet of square paper for the bottom.
I suggest using 15 x 15 cm – for the tutorial I used 20 x 20 cm
Optionally – Glue
Cake ‘filling’: use A4 or letter paper / printer paper.
Decorations: Puffy Heart, start with 5 x 5 cm. Origami Icing , start with 5 x 5 ish.
A Photo Tutorial is available for the taller cake box on the Origami Photo Tutorials page.
THE PACE AT WHICH ITS FOLDED IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP UP WIT;H. ITS A THUMBS DOWN FOR ME.
I found something on Pinterest that had the same Cake Slice box origami tutorial. Im not sure if this person copyrighted you or just made the design on their own but i just want to let you see this. [removed link]
Yes, unfortunately it seems to be copied from my design, or from the other people who copied it before. Nothing much I can do about these people. I used to get upset over these but I do not care anymore! Thanks though 🙂
Here is the 2 cake boxes I made! I even made my own cherries to go on top! I love the design! How do you come up with your ideas?
Oh jeez, it sure was hard.Ya know,I don´t understand the instructions so i just made my own version of it,it still looks pretty cute tho.:)
Thanks for using my suggestion! But i have a question… Does the filling have to be smaller than the cover???
Well yes if you want it to be on the inside..
