🧺 What You Need
  • Printer and regular printer paper (US Letter or A4)
  • Scissors
  • Wide clear packing tape (or laminating sheets)
  • Stuffing: cotton balls, yarn or paper scraps
  • Crayons or markers for the coloring version

📝 Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Print at 100% (turn off “fit to page”). Color the B/W version first.
2
Cut out the front and back along the outer line – the white border is the tape edge.
3
Cover both pieces with wide clear tape, overlapping the strips slightly, and smooth them out.
4
Place the front and back together exactly (colored sides out).
5
Tape all around the edge, leaving about 1 inch open where it says “leave open here”.
6
Stuff with cotton, yarn or paper scraps – not too full – and tape the opening shut. Done!

💡 Tips

  • The tip at the bottom is very narrow, so do not cram too much stuffing in there.
  • Fill the crust at the top a bit thicker so it looks like real crust.
  • Double the tape at the tip so it does not tear.
  • The face sits between toppings, so trace it with a black fine-tip pen.

Safety: Stuffing and tape are not for children under 3. Never use real food or scented oils as stuffing.
