shaved ice
Would you like to make a summer classic—shaved ice—out of origami? First, crease the origami paper along the diagonal and place it so a corner is pointing toward you.
Fold the bottom corner up to the center.
Next, fold the upper-left edge along the diagonal that’s parallel to you, then flip the paper over.
Fold the left and right edges to meet the center line, and turn the model upside down.
From there, keep folding while shaping it with a shaved-ice silhouette in mind until it’s complete.
If you add a straw-spoon made from another sheet of origami paper, it will look even more like shaved ice!
Food & Sweets (11–20)
Apple
There are many fruits that are in season in autumn.
Among them, if we’re talking about a fruit popular with all age groups, wouldn’t it be apples? When you cut the peel into a bunny shape, it looks really cute.
Apples are also easy to make with origami, so give it a try.
Fold it into a large triangle, then just keep folding the corners inward to make it round—that’s all there is to it, so even kids can do it easily.
The key to making it cute is to make a small cut with scissors after folding to create the apple’s indentation.
Make a leaf and a stem with another sheet of origami and stick them on!
donut
Let’s try folding a simple ring-shaped donut.
Fold a sheet of origami paper in half and cut it to make two rectangles.
Fold each one into a long, narrow trifold, then fold it in half.
From the center crease, leave about 1.5 centimeters of space and fold both sides up at right angles.
Next, insert one piece into the pouch-like end of the other and join them into a ring—your donut is complete! Since it’s very simple as is, you can use patterned origami paper or decorate it with washi tape and stickers to make it cute.
pudding
I’m going to show you how to fold a jiggly, delicious-looking pudding.
You can make it with just one sheet of origami paper, and the steps are very simple! First, place the colored side of your favorite origami paper facing up and fold it in half.
Open it, then fold the bottom edge up to meet the center crease.
The top will become the caramel layer at the end, so fold it down just a little.
Turn it over so the white side is facing up.
Fold it in half and open it, then fold both top corners in to meet the vertical center line.
Fold the bottom up slightly, and make small triangular folds on both ends—then your pudding on a plate is complete.
If you color the caramel part brown, it will look even more like real pudding!
Macaron
Let me show you how to make a stylish treat girls love—macarons—using just one sheet of origami paper.
First, fold the paper in half.
Open it, then fold the bottom part up to a little above the center.
Fold it slightly back down, and fold the top part the same way.
The key point is to leave a small gap in the middle to create the cream at the end.
Turn it over, fold it almost in half leaving a small margin at the edge, and tuck the edge into the folded section.
Fold all four corners, tuck the folded parts inward, and your macaron is complete.
You can draw fruit on the cream part or color the cream in your favorite shade to make it look even tastier.
