Maybe you were thinking that baby shower cakes were just a tasty dessert served at the party... Well, that's certainly one kind. But there's a different kind of baby shower 'cake', one that is filled with all sorts of useful gifts for the about-to-be mom.
One of the most popular choices in this area is a gift that really does resemble a multi-tiered wedding cake. But rather than being made of sugar and flour and eggs, it's constructed from the one thing a new mom can never have too much of: diapers.
Everyone thinks of giving diapers to the expectant mother, and she will certainly use them. But giving them in this form turns a needed but mundane gift into an opportunity for laughter for the guests and the guest of honor.
The recipient can peel them off one at a time as needed. Like eating a wedding cake that will last for days or weeks, the gift provides its own storage bin.
The same design idea has been used successfully for lots of other baby shower gifts, though.
Baby powder, lotion, baby oil, ointment and many similar hygiene products are common items in the nursery. At 32 inches high, you'll find these cakes hold plenty of these necessities. Booties, terry cloth towels, a baby cap and several other clothing items are part of the package, too.
Some baby shower cakes may contain only decorative items, but those too will be highly appreciated by the guest of honor at the baby shower. Ceramic baby blocks, silk roses and more set on a scalloped silver platter make this a gift that won't be shoved in the closet after the party. You'll find the blocks decorating the shelf in the baby's room and the silk roses on the mantle, while the silver platter livens up the table on special occasions.
Take a look at the bear baby cake and you may not be able to resist.
Check out the full line of baby shower cakes and amaze yourself with all the creative options. And, oh, don't forget to order the real thing for the party while you're at it...
