The different types of baby shower desserts include special order, no-bake, and homemade desserts. Traditional dessert options include cupcakes and layer or flaky cake.

An iced layer cake decorated with an appropriate bashower theme can serve as a centerpiece as well as a dessert. The cakes come in various sizes, from traditional two-layered versions to multi-layered cakes. Themed or character foil cakes can be ordered to customers specifications using their choice of flavour, icing and decorations. Cakes can be made in various sizes to serve the number of guests attending the shower.
Cupcakes are an easy dessert to make and require minimal ingredients and cooking time. These homemade desserts can be baked and decorated the day before the baby shower and then stored in the refrigerator to maintain freshness. Instead of baking their own baby shower cupcakes, shower guests can place an order, ahead of time, at the bakery section of their local supermarket.
An alternative to traditional iced cupcakes are freshly baked muffins. Fruit-based muffins offer a slightly healthier option than a sugarier dessert. Muffins are available, or they can be made with flavorings such as blueberry, oatmeal, raisin, or cranberry, providing a more nutritious yet still flavorful dessert.
Fruit Bowls, Plates and Salads are a healthy and nutritious baby shower dessert that usually uses an assortment of fresh seasonal fruits. Watermelon or honeydew slices and cantaloupe balls make a delicious fruit platter served with salsa. Additional items to add to bowls and plates include assorted grapes, strawberries, and nuts. Ambrosia and Waldorf Salad is a sweet dessert made with fresh fruit that is ideal as a baby shower dessert.
Jelly molds are creative dessert-free desserts that can be made with fruits, vegetables, or a combination of the two. Preparation for jelly desserts is quick, and quick and easy jelly molds can be made ahead of time. The jelly-based dessert can be cut into slices or scooped into individual portions and topped with whipped cream.
Additional no-bake desserts include plates of mini mini cheesecakes made with prepackaged mix. Delicious homemade dessert options that have minimal stovetop preparation include creamy banana pudding or melted chocolate in which strawberries or bananas are dipped. Marshmallow desserts and puffed rice cereal or an assortment of fresh gourmet cookies from a bakery specializing in made-to-order items are popular finger food desserts.
