This is amazing!
So, this is a piñata.
This is a piñata, yeah.
I am a third-generation piñata-maker, so,
-Okay. -we went ahead
and custom-made Trappy.
It looks just like him,
so this is a huge surprise.
I had no idea I was about to run into this.

So tell me more about the piñata business.
It kinda started off like me just trying to help grow
this art form and be recognized as artists.
I'm gonna showcase our work
and make this something that people remember.
Well, so far, so good.
You definitely got on our radar.
It looks like the hard work definitely paid off.
Tell me like some of the price ranges
of some of the piñatas you do.
I mean, you know this is "Most Expensivest," so.
That's right.
Well, the thing about it is
that it started being sold
for very, very, very low price points.
It's not a very respected art form.
-I got you. -It's like slave labor trade,
so. -Like, what? Like, give me,
give me a number. -10 bucks.
10 bucks for these? -10 bucks.
-Okay. -For something like this,
probably like 60 bucks.
60 bucks?!
We started putting more detail into it,
to go ahead and like elevate the art form.
-Definitely. -And we started
focusing more on quality and that's when
we started raising our price.
Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to survive.
Back in the days, if they were $60,
I'd probably want me about 10 of 'em.
But now, how much are these?
Starting price of $300 and up to over a grand.
That's a lot for a piñata, ain't it?
This piece right here is $1,000.
-1,000 bucks -Mm-hmm.
-for a piñata? -Yeah.
Something you're fittin' to just
whack upside the head?
Oh, yeah, but it's an experience
that we sell. Nothing in this life
lasts forever, so what we make,
we put a lot of love and energy into it.
Through the creation of it, you learn patience
and, through the distraction of it,
it's like learning about like release.
