How to Draw a Key Lime Pie
Draw a key lime pie in 13 easy steps, about 10 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the top.
Step 1: The top
In the middle of your paper draw a long triangle pointing left. Bow its right side out.
Step 2: Crust rim
Along the bowed side draw a fat crust band, from the front corner to the back corner.
Step 3: The cut side
From the point draw a short line down, a long line along the bottom, then up to the crust.
Step 4: Bottom crust
Near the bottom of the cut side draw a line from the left end, then turn up under the crust.
Step 5: Cream dollops
On the top draw a round dollop of cream, with a smaller one peeking out on each side.
Step 6: A lime wheel
Draw a round lime wheel standing in the middle dollop, with a smaller round inside for the rind.
Step 7: Lime segments
From the middle of the wheel draw 6 short lines out to the inner round, like a star.
Step 8: A plate
Draw a big flat oval plate behind the slice, passing under it. Add an oval inside for the rim.
Step 9: The table
Draw a table line under the plate from well left to well right, just touching its bottom.
Step 10: Tan crust
Colour the crust rim and the bottom crust tan.
Step 11: Sky plate
Colour the plate sky blue, going around the slice and the lime wheel.
Step 12: Light green filling
Colour the top, the cut side above the crust and the wheel's middle light green, going around the dollops.
Step 13: Dark green rind
Colour the lime wheel's rind dark green, around its light green middle. Your key lime pie is done!

Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a key lime pie, drawn by you.
