Donut Paper Squishy Template with Pink Icing
The donut paper squishy template is a round donut with pink icing and colourful sprinkles, free to print. The hole in the middle is only printed. You never cut into it, so the squishy stays one closed piece.
Quick answer
Print the sheet at 100 %, colour the icing and add sprinkles. Tape both circles, cut them out on the grey line and join them with short strips. Stuff it all the way round. An adult does the cutting, and paper donuts aren't for children under three.

Pink icing and a printed hole
A real hole would make a ring with a thin inner edge, and that edge is the first place where the tape splits as soon as you push stuffing in. So ours is drawn on.
Pink icing drips over a golden dough ring with wavy edges. Sprinkles in different colours dot the icing. The face sits on the icing just below the hole, and the back shows plain golden dough with the hole.
A circle is the easiest outline there is. Even the small size is no trouble.

How to make the donut
- Print at 100 % and check the 5 cm line before cutting.
- Colour the icing pink and draw sprinkles with felt tips. Let them dry for a few minutes.
- Lay wide clear tape over both circles. The strips may overlap a little.
- Cut out along the outside of the grey ring.
- Tape the circles back to back and leave a two-finger gap.
- Stuff the donut evenly so it stays round, then seal the gap.
Paper donuts look best when the middle stays a little flat. Our paper squishy guide shows each step with photos, and a cookie and a cupcake are waiting in the template collection.

FAQ
Why isn't the donut hole cut out?
A cut hole makes a thin inner edge that splits when you stuff it. Printing it keeps the squishy strong.
Can I make a chocolate donut?
Yes. Use the outline page and colour the icing brown, then add white sprinkles.
How many donuts fit on one sheet?
One big and one small donut, each with a front and a back. Print more sheets for a party.
