Baby shower cakes come in two forms: edible and diaper cakes made of diapers and baby supplies. Edible cakes can range from simple to elaborate designs, while flavors should consider the mother-to-be’s taste. Cakes can be purchased or made at home, with many resources available for inspiration.

Baby shower cakes come in two forms. The first is the edible kind, which should be a part of every shower. The second form, the diaper cake, looks like an edible cake but is made up of diapers and various other baby changing supplies. Both can be fun to have at a bashower, although many diaper cakes are made with cloth diapers, which may not be mom’s choice. Both versions can be purchased from a variety of stores or can be made at home.

There is an incredible variety in the types of edible baby shower cakes. They can range from baked cakes with a few congratulatory words on them, to elaborately shaped cakes that can have numerous children’s themes. Different shapes include things like ducks, carriages, blocks, or even elephants. Anything cute is usually acceptable, and the icing colors can coordinate with the mom-to-be’s favorite colors. A popular alternative to shaped cakes or round or sheet cakes, are cupcake cakes, made with lots of frosted cupcakes.

Probably the most important consideration when choosing or preparing edible cakes is the mother-to-be’s taste. Would you like a lemon cake or would you like chocolate and raspberries? Any flavor of cake, filling, and frosting will do as long as Mom and hopefully most of the other guests like it. Safe flavors to choose for “surprise showers” include white or yellow cakes with lemon or raspberry fillings. Some moms avoid chocolate during pregnancy because it contains a small amount of caffeine.

If a shower host or guest is interested in making baby shower cakes, there are plenty of books on the subject. Bakery and craft shops can also be great sources of inspiration. They feature many different cookware that can inspire the baker to create elaborate designs. Cake decorating books and websites are also great resources, although if people are new to cooking, it might be better to buy a cake.

These cakes can be bought in bakeries, and some bakeries specialize in really creative designs. For the price conscious, department stores and grocery stores often carry less expensive cakes as well. Pay attention to the size of the cakes and the expected number of guests to make sure there is enough cake to carry around and maybe a few extras to take home for the mum-to-be.

Inedible baby shower cakes can be made at home and there are many online guides that can help. It will generally be less expensive to make a diaper cake at home, and people may have more choices about what things to include and the quality of items included. Commercially produced diaper cakes are also attractive options for those who don’t have time for manual labor at home.
