Imagining a situation of oversaturation of candy supply, this piñata is conceived of four parts that assemble together with the help of one string. With the string being used, the elasticity of it allows for the piñata to expand and compress itself depending on the amount of candy that gets filled in it.
When the piñata has reached its ultimate capacity, it explodes. This unconventional manner of the object bursting on its own to spread candy is due to the string. The string goes through the holes that have been fabricated on the vacuum-formed pieces. In a connect-the-dots fashion, the piñata comes together.
