"Cub Scout are one in a Minion" PRINTABLE craft for Twinkies from Despicable Me - Great Table Decoration for the Blue & Gold Banquet



I got a little excited about Minions this year for the Blue & Gold.  I took ideas I was finding on Pinterest, and decided that I had to make Cub Scout Minions.  My 11 year old daughter, Sarah made them all for me.  She did all the cutting, drawing, and taping so your boys should be fine to do their own if you do it for Cub Scouts.  The Cub Scouts were SO excited when they received a Minion in addition to their awards, and the Leaders thought it was cute to get a twinkie that said "Thanks a MINION for being such a great Cub Scout Leader.  They were a fun addition to the Minion Coloring Page.    ** Sara Lee and Great Value (Walmart) brand have plain wrappers.

I was featured on Fun Family Crafts

  1. Hi, I'm trying to print the minion twinkie printables for a blue and gold banquet, and the document comes out blank. Any ideas?

    1. You may need to try it in a different browser - google chrome, firefox, or internet explorer. Google Chrome seems to work the best.

  2. I am so bummed that the Twinkies I purchased are not in plain wrappers. They have red and white Twinkie and Hostess logos all over them. It really detracts from the minion!. Love this idea though!!!!!

    1. I had that problem too. I used Tastykake Dreamies instead. They come in a plain wrapper.

    2. turn the package over and put the front of the uniform and the eyes on the back. it's blank on the back and looks good.

  5. I would like to modify the Cub Leader Tag- this year our Trails End Popcorn 2015 was based on the Minion Movie and the twinkies would be a great treat for my District Unit Kernels- along with their Unit Popcorn Kernel Patch.

  6. Do you happen to be able to edit this so it could be a Boy Scout uniform? I'd like to use it for an Eagle Court of Honor.
