Cheese Cube Template, 5 cm Fold Net with a Face
Our cheese cube template folds into a 5 cm yellow cube with holes and a little face, free to print. The net is a cross of six squares. It's the simplest 3D cheese we have.
Quick answer
Print the net at 100 % and measure the small square. Cut out the net, fold the lines and glue the tabs inside one face at a time. An adult cuts, and paper cubes aren't for children under three.

A yellow cheese cube
Cheese cubes are the easy cousin of the cheese wedge. Six square faces, all yellow.

Holes of different sizes cover the faces and one face carries the smile. It folds from the same cross-shaped net as the blank cube and the toast cube, so a set of three makes a little breakfast board for a play kitchen.
Same net as the toast cube.

FAQ
How big is the cheese cube?
5 cm on each side, about 2 inches.
Is it a squishy?
No, it's a folded paper cube. The flat cheese wedge template is the squishy one.
Can I make it into a dice?
The faces already have holes, so a blank cube works better for a dice.
