A Diaper Cake???

Diaper Cakes...

Buy or Make?

Diaper cakes are usually given as baby shower gifts. They are overwhelmingly popular and can be tailored to fit just about any theme.

Is the mother a nurse or the father a sports fanatic? Diaper cakes can reflect careers, hobbies or passions, making them even more meaningful to the recipient.

To Build or to Buy?

Making a diaper cake isn't all that difficult. Numerous websites can walk you through the process.

If you are not a craft person or if you need a cake immediately, they can be purchased.

Buying ready made diaper cakes may seem a bit pricey. But if you consider how expensive diapers are and the amount of time it takes to craft a design that is personalized, the cost isn't exorbitant.

Different Styles

Diapers or Towels?

"Diaper cake" is basically a catch all term for unique tiered baby shower gifts. In reality the term "Shower Cake" would be more fitting as even true diaper cakes are usually decorated with numerous baby items.

Cakes can be made out of diapers, towels, baby blankets, baby clothes, or a combination of items.

Diaper cakes can be single or multiple tiers. They can also take other shapes or themes.

There are diaper wreaths, diaper pizzas, diaper baskets, diaper bunnies and numerous others. Again, they are often made out of baby wash cloths, blankets or clothes.

With fathers becoming more involved and sometimes even having their own showers, daddy diaper aprons are all the rage.

No matter what the style or ingredients used, diaper cakes are a big hit at baby showers.
