Tutorial how to make a piñata in the shape of an ice cream pop 30/05/2023

With today’s tutorial we will make a delicious ice cream pop piñata.

You have no idea how it embellishes your party. Make several in different colors to decorate the place, each one can contain candies or small toys or make a really large one to break it.

Materials

• Crepe paper of different colors
• Beige tissue paper for the popsicle stick
• Resistant carton
• Flexible carton
• Adhesive paper tape (or of kraft paper)
• Rope, cord or ribbon
• White glue
• Hot silicon
• Paintbrush, pencil, cutter and scissors

The pattern we give you is for a piñata of 27 cm of height, ideal for decoration. For the body of the piñata use resistant carton and of one piece for each side of the piñata. Use the cutter to cut the lineal parts and the scissors to cut the rounded parts.

Get two pieces of resistant carton for the popsicle’s body. Cut strips of the flexible carton of 5 cm in width for the lateral carton. Cut strips of crepe paper of 5 cm in width and cut fringes. Strengthen with double carton and tape the place where the cord you will use to hang the piñata will pass.

Roll the lateral carton so it adapts better to the silhouette of the body of the piñata. Have in hand pieces of paper tape and start to paste the pieces of the lateral carton. Line the popsicle stick and insert it in a symmetrical manner by the bottom part, set with hot silicon. If you wish to put candies or small toys in the piñata, this is the moment to do it as we need to completely assemble the piñata- With a piece of crepe paper cover the bottom part of the popsicle.

Now start to paste the crepe paper line by line leaving the same distance between them, exchange the colors to create brightness in each piñata. I suggest using white glue diluted with water in equal parts so it lasts more. Line the popsicle stick, preferably with the beige crepe paper.

What a treat! If you wish to make a piñata to break, make it tall, between 100 cm and 150 cm. You just have to extend the lines of the pattern we gave you to the length you prefer and in this case use a resistant carton for the lateral part, between 20 cm and 25 cm in width.

This is the pattern for the ice cream piñata. Don’t forget to include very bright party complements like these, the kids will love them!
