Diaper Cakes - What Are They, Anyway?
|
A diaper cake is an inedible gift made out of diapers, in the shape of a cake. The diapers give the illusion of icing, while toys and useful baby presents stick out of the top of it as decorations. These funky cakes are the ultimate modern must-have gift for any baby shower. A baby shower diaper cake is the way to go when you want to bring an impressive and useful gift for the mother-to-be in your life. They can make a perfect shower centerpiece or a smaller baby shower gift. They also make a cute gift to bring to the hospital when you first go to see the new mom. You can order diaper cakes from internet sites, or from a specialty store near you. These gift cakes can be made out of disposable, cloth, or craft diapers - whichever you prefer.
Whether you want to give a diaper cake centerpiece or a small thoughtful gift, you can find something to meet your needs. Themed cakes can be found easily; there are stuffed animal themes, Winnie the Pooh diaper cakes, firefighter or fairy cakes, and even train diaper cakes. Whatever you can think of, you can find. A personalized diaper cake is always a nice idea as well. Cakes usually come in one to four tier sizes, and can include basic baby necessities or personalized items for both mom and her little one.
Diaper cake recipes: if you want to make your own, diaper cake instructions are available on the internet. There are many websites that explain how to make your own diaper cake; they can show you the basics, which you can then personalize to fit your particular mom-to-be. You will need a few basic ingredients to get started: a large cardboard platter, ribbon, diapers, tape, and small accessories. Make sure to include useful and fun items - soaps and toiletries for both mom and baby are good, as well as stuffed animals and small toys. Items such as pacifiers, teething rings, rattles, baby bottles, receiving blankets, socks, booties, and bibs are also great ideas.
