Croissant Paper Squishy Template, Free Printable
For readers in the USA: here we sell our squishies as stress balls and collectibles for ages 14 and up. They are not toys for children. Any age tips in this guide apply to our shops outside the USA.
Our croissant paper squishy template is a golden crescent made of five rounded segments, and it's free to print. The face sits on the big middle segment. Brown shading and a few shiny highlights make it look freshly baked.
Quick answer
You'll need the PDF printed at 100 %, wide clear tape and some stuffing. Colour the segments in two browns, tape both halves and cut them out on the grey border. Join them, fill the crescent and close it up. Cutting is for grown-ups, and the croissant isn't for under-threes.

A crescent in five segments
The croissant joins the bread shapes in our template collection. It's wider than it is tall, about the size of a palm in the big version.
Each segment bulges out a little, so the outline has soft bumps instead of straight lines. Two shades of brown mark where one segment ends. The back shows the same five segments without a face, and the ends curl in like a real croissant.
Bumps look harder to cut than they are. Turn the paper as you go.

Making the croissant squishy
- Print the page with scaling switched off and check the 5 cm line.
- Colour the segments golden and shade the edges between them a darker brown.
- Cover both crescents with wide clear tape and push air bubbles towards the edge.
- Cut out each half on the outer line of the grey border.
- Hold them back to back with the brown sides out and tape the curved top in short pieces.
- Leave a gap on the inner curve, stuff each segment with a pencil and close it.
The two pointed ends hold only a pinch of filling. Most of it goes into the middle. All the basics with photos are in our paper squishy guide, and you'll find more bakery shapes in the free template collection.

FAQ
How big is the croissant template?
About 9 x 7 cm for the big crescent and 6 x 5 cm for the small one.
Do I have to cut between the segments?
No. The segments are drawn on one outline, so you only cut round the outside. The bumps are gentle.
What's the difference to the crunchy croissant squishy?
The paper one is soft for a few days of squeezing. A crunchy squishy crackles when pressed, and our crunchy squishy guide explains why.
