Decorating is fun! A cake box

Fold two origami papers into box shapes and stack them to represent the cake’s sponge and cream.

Place a three-dimensional strawberry and piped cream on top to finish.

Before forming the box shape, make fine creases, and proceed carefully.

For the cream, take a 5 cm origami sheet, fold it into a square twice, then squash the pocketed part into a triangle.

Fold it in half again, then roll it up from the edge to shape it.

For the strawberry, fold it into a triangle twice, squash the pocketed part into a square, and fold in the corners of the paper to make the calyx.

Finally, puff up the remaining part and it’s done!

croissant

Freshly baked and crispy bread is delicious, but this time I’ll show you how to fold a croissant out of paper! First, fold the origami paper into a triangle.

Open it, then fold the top and bottom corners toward the center crease.

Fold the left and right corners inward into small flaps.

Fold it in half along the center line, and keep tucking and folding to complete your croissant.

If you fold the left and right sides in a stepped pattern, it will look like the layers of a rolled croissant, making it look extra tasty! It would be fun to make a bunch and play pretend bakery, too!

Shortcake in a gift box

If you want to make a wrapping box that will amaze everyone, we recommend this cake-style one.

It’s perfect for birthday celebrations and parties, of course.

You’ll need seven 15 cm × 15 cm sheets of white origami paper—these will become the box body, the lid, and the whipped cream.

For the strawberry, use one red origami sheet measuring 7.5 cm square.

You’ll also need glue, adhesive, scissors, and a craft knife.

Just looking at the materials might make it feel a bit advanced, right? The whipped cream part involves very detailed work, so if a child is giving it a try, please have an adult help with that section.

Let's try folding winter fruit, the mikan (mandarin)!

When it comes to classic winter fruits, mikan (mandarins) are the best! Their sweet, delicious taste makes it hard to stop at just one.

So here’s an origami idea to enjoy in February: how to fold a mikan.

First, fold the paper into a triangle twice to create creases.

Open it up, then fold all four corners inward into triangles to give the mikan a rounded shape.

That’s it for the folding steps.

Turn the paper face up and attach a stem using a small green circular sheet.

Finally, draw the surface oil glands with a pen, and you’re done!

How to fold winter-in-season white leeks

Essential white leeks for warm winter hot pots! You can easily make them with green origami.

First, cut a sheet of green origami lengthwise into a long, thin quarter.

With the colored side facing up, fold about one third of it.

Flip it over, fold it in half vertically, then open it, and fold both sides in toward the crease you just made.

Next, make a slit in the center of the green section, then fold it in half vertically again.

Fold one layer of the green part with the slit diagonally—and you’re done! You might also enjoy making other ingredients out of origami and using them for pretend hot pot play.
