The Crochet Cake Box Amigurumi Pattern is a fun and creative way to make a little crochet box that looks like a cake. You use yarn and a crochet hook to make two circles for the top and bottom of the box. Then, you make the sides of the box stand up by crocheting around the edges.
Crochet Cake Box Amigurumi
To make it look more like a cake, you add some pretty crochet stitches on top for icing and a little crochet cherry. This pattern is a nice project for people who like to crochet small, cute things that can be used for decorating a room or giving as a gift. It's like making a little toy cake out of yarn!
Materials Needed:
- Crochet hook
- Yarn in your desired cake box color
- Plastic canvas for support
- Yarn needle
- Stuffing material (optional for the cherry)
- Glue (optional for attaching decorations)
Base and Lid (Create Two)
Magic Circle: Start with a magic ring.
- Row 1: 6 single crochet (sc) into the circle.
- Row 2: Increase by making 2 single crochet in each stitch around (12 sc).
- Row 3: 1 sc, then increase in next repeat around (18 sc).
- Row 4: 2 sc, then increase in next repeat around (24 sc).
- Row 5: 3 sc, then increase in next repeat around (30 sc).
- Row 6: 4 sc, then increase in next repeat around (36 sc).
- Row 7: 5 sc, then increase in next repeat around (42 sc).
- Row 8: 6 sc, then increase in next repeat around (48 sc).
- Row 9: 7 sc, then increase in next repeat around (54 sc).

- Row 11: 9 sc, then increase in next repeat around (66 sc).
- Row 12: 10 sc, then increase in next repeat around (72 sc).
For the second piece (lid), don't cut off the yarn after completing these rows; continue to create the cover.
Constructing the Box
Cut plastic canvas slightly smaller than your crocheted pieces for support. Insert between the two sides.
Seam both sides together using single crochet stitches through the back loops of stitches, inserting the plastic canvas between both sides as you seam them.
Frosting Decoration
- Attach yarn at the base and create treble crochet clusters around the edge to form frosting.
- Repeat the frosting pattern around the edge of the box's base.
Cherry and Frosting for the Lid
- Cherry: Start with a magic circle, 6 sc into the circle, then follow the instructions for making a small sphere and attach it to the lid.
- Top Frosting: Create a larger frosting decoration on the top of the lid, following similar steps to the base frosting but adapting it for the top of the cake.
Assembling the Box
- Complete the frosting and decorations for both the box base and the lid.
- Sew or glue (if preferred) the decorative elements onto the box as instructed.
Finishing Touches
Attach miniature flowers or any other decorations around the cake box for embellishment.
