Believed by many to have begun in the 17th century, origami is still popular today and has even made its way onto cake! Origami can be made from all kinds of paper, but these daring and innovative cakemakers have created cranes and other origami-inspired designs out of fondant, gumpaste and molded sugar to decorate these origami cakes.
