What is a drum pull-string piñata?

Pinatas come in all shapes and sizes, but there are only two types of piñatas… shaped piñatas or drum piñatas which are round piñatas. Drum piñatas have a flat front and back which allows us to personalize your piñata for any occasion.  Pull string piñatas have decorative strings with one string attached to a trap door.  Pull-string piñatas provide the flexibility to play the traditional or string pinata games.

Can personalized piñatas be hit with a bat?

Personalized piñatas can be hit with a piñata buster, bat or stick just like shaped pinatas, but most customers prefer to keep the piñata after the event and choose to play the pull-string piñata game where strings are pulled until the trap door is opened when the correct string is pulled.

How much candy will a pinata hold?

Our piñatas will typically hold two pounds of candy or toys or a combination of both.  The rule of thumb is to plan a handful of goodies for each participant.  We also suggest having some of the goodies set aside to throw to the small children who may be a little shy in grabbing for the candy.

What is your return policy?

Each personalized piñata is created especially for you, therefore they are not returnable.  We have done our best to portray our images as clearly as possible, and ask that you confirm the personalized information before submitting your order. We double check the spelling on all piñatas, but if there is an error on our part, please call us immediately so we can rectify the situation.

We have selected a sturdy shipping box, but if a piñata arrives damaged, we will help you resolve the loss through filing a claim with the carrier.  If your piñata is damaged in shipping, be sure to hold onto the box to justify your claim.
