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.
