An Unusual But Nonetheless Most Handy Baby Shower Cake
Maybe you believed that baby shower cakes were just a delicious dessert served to your guests… Well, that’s certainly one form of cake. But there is a different kind of baby shower cake that is filled with all sorts of practical gifts for the expectant mom. One extremely popular choice in this area is a gift that really does remind you of a tiered wedding cake. But rather than being made of eggs, flour and sugar, it is built from the one thing that a new mother can never have too many of - diapers.
These clever and attractive baby shower cakes make for the perfect gift for the event. Everyone thinks about giving diapers to the mother-to-be and she will certainly be able to use them. But giving them in this way turns a needed but mundane gift into an opportunity for laughter for both the guests and the mom-to-be.
Piled high one on top of another and covered with decorative items which really do make it just look like the the real thing, diaper cakes are practical and fun and the guest of honor can simply peel them off one at a time as required. Exactly like eating a wedding cake that will last for days or even weeks, the gift offers its own storage bin.
The same design idea can be used successfully for many other baby shower gifts. The fake wedding cake can be filled with any type of toys for the baby, gifts for the about-to-be mother and father and a lot more.
After all, it is not only diapers which the happy couple will need soon. Baby powder, baby oil, ointment, lotion and many similar hygiene products are all common items for the nursery. At about 32 inches high, you will see these cakes can hold plenty of these necessities. Booties, terry cloth towels, a baby cap and several other clothing items are all part of the package too.
Even the somewhat smaller 2-tier baby shower cakes offer dozens of valuable gifts and makes a marvelous decoration as a centerpiece for the baby shower table. Simply peel off the outer layers and enjoy the pacifier, rattle, teething ring and more which will certainly be used. Open it up and find socks, a brush and comb, a manicure set and other equally useful presents.
Some baby shower cakes may contain only decorative gifts, but these too will be highly appreciated by the mother-to-be. Ceramic baby blocks, silk roses and more set on a silver platter make this a gift which will not be put away the closet after the party. You’ll discover the blocks lining the shelf in the baby’s room and the silk roses on display on the mantle, while the silver platter livens up the table on special occasions.
Take a look at the full line of baby shower cakes on offer nowadays and you will be amazed by the number of creative options.
And, don’t forget to order the real thing for the baby shower while you’re at it.
