Do you want some wine
to go with that cake?
Give an expecting mommy- more than she’s expecting. Most baby shower diaper cakes use a paper towel tube, a baby bottle, or something similar for center support. Instead, use a bottle of Champagne or wine (it will be covered by diapers). It’s a fun surprise for mom and dad to find after baby is born, and the diapering is in full swing! Your gift will be much appreciated!

Baby Shower Gift Cake![]() To make this cake you will need:
Optional supplies:for curling ribbon
Rolling the diapers: Place diaper on a flat surface with the inside of the diaper, face-up. Keep the flaps of the diaper folded in. Roll the diaper from the front to the back-keep the rolls snug and even. When the diaper is complete, you will have a cylinder shape. Secure baby diaper with an elastic band. TIP: I like to use small, clear or white, elastic hair bands. You can find them where ever children’s hair accessories are sold. Do you want your cake a little bit fancy?

Tips for seamless gift wrapping: Invert fold, secure fold with double sided tape. Bring fold to edge of package. Secure with double sided tape to complete. |

Simple decorating for cute diaper cake ideas
Top diaper cake with a stuffed animal, baby toy,booties, or flowers.
Tulle or colored tissue paper can be used to wrap or cover diapers that are printed with color.
Cover cake with cellophane and tie with a ribbon. This will protect the diaper cake from dust or surface damage.
Cakes can also be made with baby blankets, towels, crib bedding, cloth diapers, or clothing.
TIP: If you want to build your diaper cake with white diapers; Earth’s Best and Seventh Generation are both brands that do not put prints on their diapers-no dyes, no nasty chemicals. We love how much better they are for baby, (especially a newborn baby) and the environment too.
Cloth diapers work just as well for this cake. You may need to use a gift box to put the cloth in.
