Food & Sweets (11–20)
ice cream
Let’s make a cute, girl-favorite motif—ice cream—out of origami.
If you make them in various sizes, you can give them to friends as message cards or use them as small room decorations.
This folding method uses both the colored front and the white back of the origami paper, so you can complete it with a single sheet.
It’s not difficult, so give it a try and master it.
Once you’ve folded the ice cream, you can use colored pens or stickers to add colorful toppings to the ice part for an even cuter finish.
strawberry
This is a cute strawberry craft made with origami paper, scissors, and glue.
Fold a sheet of origami paper in half, then fold it in half again.
Fold one corner inward to create the strawberry piece.
For the calyx (leafy top), fold another piece of origami paper in half once, cut out a small strip, then cut that strip into three equal parts with scissors.
Apply glue to the ends of the cut pieces, form them into loops, and stick them together.
Attach these loops to the folded corner of the strawberry you prepared earlier, and finish by drawing the seeds freely with a pen.
cupcake
Why not try making a cute, pop-style cupcake out of origami? It’s perfect to add to a gift or as a small present! Prepare two small sheets of origami paper and one sheet that’s a quarter of that size.
Make the cake part and the cup part separately and put them together, then fold a heart from the quarter-size paper and decorate the top to finish! For an even poppier look, cut the cup part with a wavy edge.
It would also look adorable decorated with pens or stickers.
candy
Candy wrapped in colorful paper is a popular motif among girls.
Its round, plump shape is cute, and it’s used on all kinds of goods and items.
Prepare origami in your favorite colors and patterns—pink or yellow, polka dots or stripes.
By changing the size of the origami, you can create candy motifs for many uses: decorate your room by sticking them on walls or windows, or use them to embellish gifts.
If you write a message on them, they can even serve as letters.
chestnut
Would you like to try making an origami chestnut, a classic taste of autumn? Roll brown or yellow origami paper to form the shape of a chestnut.
Use your fingertips to refine the shape, taking your time to finish it neatly.
The completed chestnuts are perfect for wall or ceiling decorations.
Combine them with fallen leaves and pinecones to create a space full of autumn atmosphere.
If you make them with children, you can enjoy the activity while feeling the change of seasons.
How about bringing autumn’s warmth into your classroom or room with origami chestnuts?
How to fold a shortcake using a single sheet!
Some people may not be fond of sweets, but in general kids love them, right? And if there’s a king of sweets, it would probably be cake.
Let’s try making a cake out of origami and give it as a birthday present.
You’ll need 15 cm × 15 cm origami paper, scissors, and a red pen.
There are a few slightly tricky parts like the folding angles, but it’s at a level everyone can work through together.
The key point is the cream section you cut out with scissors.
Cut smoothly while imagining a curved line.

How to fold Anpanman candy
Why not try making Anpanman candies that are perfect for pretend play? By changing the origami colors and the character faces you draw, you can enjoy candies of various characters! Prepare 7.5 cm origami paper and fold about 5 mm along three sides except the top edge.
Apply glue to the folded part of the bottom edge, overlap it with the top edge, and stick them together to form a pouch.
Fold the left and right edges inward by about 5 mm, insert your fingers to puff up the pouch, then gently flatten the top and bottom to shape it like a candy.
Finally, draw your favorite character’s face, and cut the left and right edges with scissors into a zigzag pattern to finish!
