Instructions

1)  Remember, to make it easier, print templates directly onto cardstock

     **Please note that you need ELEVEN of each piece**        

2)  Cut out cake pieces on solid lines and score on dotted lines


 3)  Apply double-sided tape to pointy flap and adhere as shown below


 4)  Apply double-sided tape to side flap and adhere as shown


 5)  Bring flaps together and punch a hole


 


 6)  Feed ribbon thru one hole, wrap around box, and feed out thru other hole











To make the curly things, cut strips of paper 1/2" wide and curl the end around a pencil.


Decorate each slice any way you want!  On the slices below, I punched out different shapes and glued them onto the flaps.


For the cake topper, I painted a wooden knob and added some paper circles.  I gathered up some ribbon and adhered it with glue.
