Cute Floral and Ribbon Paper Cake Slice Favor Boxes

A Craft That Will be the Hit of Any Party

Paper cake favor boxes are a lovely way to thank you for guests attending a bridal, wedding or baby shower. These party favors look so cute, but don’t have any calories! They are constructed from cardstock and are filled with little trinkets or even a slice of real baked goodness. Make some paper party displays today that are not only beautiful table decorations but are also a delightful party gift your party guests will love.

The craft is a paper creation made up of 12 individual slices, which form a round cake when place together. Each slice is a paper container which can be filled with candy, small gifts or anything the hostess of the party wishes to give her guests as a token of her appreciation.

Print, Cut and Glue the Paper Cake Favor Boxes

Each paper favor box is made from an 8.5 x 11 sheet of cardstock. Just print the pdf download onto the page of cardstock, cut and glue. It is that easy! This craft looks fabulous displayed on a real stand or plate and also works well as a table centerpiece.

You can wrap the favor boxes with a piece of ribbon to simulate icing, and tie the ribbon ends together. Top each faux slice with a paper flower, butterfly, or some frou-frou. My example photo features little silk hydrangeas and green cardstock paper leaves.

Make one “paper cake” for each table at your event, and you will have some thrifty party decor as well. Cake favor boxes are little treasures that are quite beautiful and very easy on the pocketbook as well!
