Pancake Paper Squishy Template, Stack with Syrup
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.
This pancake paper squishy template is a stack of three golden pancakes with a cube of butter and syrup running down, free to print. The big stack is about 9 x 6 cm. It's wide and low, which makes it a nice palm-sized squeeze.
Quick answer
Print at 100 % and colour the syrup a deep brown. Tape both halves, cut them out and join them back to back. Stuff the stack evenly from one side. Paper squishies aren't for children under three, and a grown-up handles the scissors.

Three pancakes, butter and syrup
The pancakes are one of nine food shapes in our second template PDF. Each layer has a soft wave at the edge.

Syrup drips over the top layer in a wavy line and a yellow butter cube sits in the middle. The face smiles from the middle pancake. The back shows the same stack with syrup but no face.
The butter cube sticks up a bit. Go slow there. After that the scissors follow nothing but gentle curves, and most kids can finish the cutting on their own while someone watches.

How to make the pancake squishy
- Print at actual size and colour the pancakes golden, the syrup brown and the butter yellow.
- Give felt tip a few minutes to dry, then cover both halves with wide clear tape.
- Cut along the outer edge of the grey border, going round the butter cube carefully.
- Put the halves back to back and tape the sides with short pieces.
- Leave one end open, stuff the stack evenly and tape it shut.
Flat shapes need less stuffing than you think. Squeeze before closing. The paper squishy guide explains every step, and a waffle is coming to the template collection.

FAQ
How big is the pancake template?
Roughly 9 x 6 cm for the big stack and 6 x 4 cm for the small one, measured from the outside of the grey edge.
Why does the syrup smudge under the tape?
Felt tip was still wet. Let it dry for a few minutes before taping, or use coloured pencils.
Can I make a taller stack?
Not with this template, but you can draw extra layers on the outline page. Keep the outline smooth so the tape lies flat.
