How to make your pizza template
This pizza design uses a six-panel 3D cube net covered with original topping artwork. Decorate the flat panels, score the dashed folds, and close the gray tabs for a compact food-themed cube.
Get these ready
- *A4 printer paper or light card stock (90-120 gsm)
- *Child-safe scissors
- *A ruler and a blunt scoring tool, such as an empty pen cap
- *Clear tape or double-sided tape
- *A small amount of tissue paper or soft scrap paper for filling
What to put inside
Use a small amount of loose tissue before closing the last face so the cube stays soft without distorting the topping artwork.
What to stick with
Use glue or short clear-tape pieces on the gray hatched tabs, working around the net one panel at a time.
- 1
Print at 100%
Print the pizza cut sheet on A4 without scaling and confirm the six square faces.
- 2
Cut the outer silhouette
Cut along the solid outline and leave every gray glue tab attached to the cube net.
- 3
Decorate the toppings
Add extra cheese marks, toppings, or faces while the printed panels are still flat.
- 4
Score the dashed folds
Use a ruler and blunt tool on every dashed fold line, then pre-fold the panels and tabs.
- 5
Assemble the pizza cube
Apply glue or tape to the gray hatched tabs and fold the six panels into a cube.
- 6
Fill and close
Add a little light tissue through the last opening, secure the final tabs, and smooth the cube edges.
Print note: Print the A4 cut sheet at 100% scale and check that the six 6 cm faces have not been resized.
Finish it: Rotate the cube so a topping-heavy face is forward; the repeated artwork keeps every side displayable.
Use scissors with adult help when needed. Keep filling light and dry: do not use food, liquid, rice, beads, or anything heavy inside a paper squishy.
