It can be hard coming up with the perfect baby shower gift. You want it to be practical, something the mom will really be able to get use out of. But let’s be honest… you want it to be pretty stinkin’ adorable, too – something that will be oohed and aahed over, and really loved.
The solution? A diaper cake! It’s made of diapers, which of course we all know babies go through SO quickly, and it’s decorated with other baby necessities like toiletries, wash cloths, and pacifiers.
Diaper Cakewalk has been around for six years now, providing people with professionally-made, adorably-designed diaper cakes any parents-to-be would be thrilled to receive. I got sent the Striped Safari Diaper Cake to review – how cute is this?
The cake is well-made and safely packed for shipping – it arrived in perfect condition, complete with a tulle wrap. It included:
- Plush toy elephant
- Baby pacifier
- Baby washcloths
- Johnson’s baby shampoo
- Johnson’s baby lotion
- Johnson’s baby wash
- Johnson’s baby powder
- Desitin diaper rash cream
- 70-75 premium Pampers Swaddlers disposable diapers, size 1 (up to 14lbs)
Just imagine this at the center of the shower table:
Wouldn’t that be a great jumping-off point to plan a theme around? With tons of designs, there’s sure to be one that fits what you’re looking for. You can also choose between two sizes for most cakes:
The cakes aren’t just great for showers. If you’re thinking about taking flowers to the hospital when you visit a new bundle of joy, a diaper cake is a longer-lasting yet still adorable alternative. It’d definitely add some personality to a bland hospital room, too!
Here are a few of my favorite designs (there are way too many to try and show them all here, but trust me, you’ll want to check them out):
This third one is for twins – how cute, right?
And if you don’t see a design that fits the theme you’re looking for, you can order a plain cake that’s built to last and provides the foundation for you to add decorations of your choosing!
