Hi
I am having a BBQ next Saturday in honour of my brothers birthday (he was killed last year aged 35) I am making a pinata, you know 1 of those things you hit with sticks and things fall out. There will be loads of strong men there (lucky me!!) so is there any way to make this stronger so the first 2 hits will not break it?

Sorry to hear about your brother. That's so sad.
By Saturday? Wow! Since you'll be using layering, not mash (mache), you can reinforce it by including a mesh, pressed well between the layers.
The mesh bags that are used for fruit, onions etc. are good for this. You'd need to leave gaps so that the casing will eventually break apart.
I've never tried it but I guess it would work.
Good luck. :?
