Diaper cakes serve as perfect gift for to-be-moms at the baby shower. Unlike the wedding cakes, they can’t be consumed but resemble them. The history of such gift items has not been clear but their popularity has increased tremendously after getting featured in various television shows. Let us understand few basic things about diaper cakes.

How is a Diaper cake constructed?

It is formed of layers of cloth diaper and includes various baby accessories like safety pins, plastic bottles, small toys etc. These accessories serve as a gift for the new member.

You can either build several layers of cake to make it look like a wedding cake or keep it single tier depending on your budget.

Which design to choose?

You can roll each diaper and fix them with a rubber band or ribbon to make a round cake. Whatever shape you choose, make sure that the cake contains a lot of baby accessories. Also ensure that in the process of including too many accessories do not spoil the design or finish of the cake.

Where to buy from?

If you are low on budget then you can make it one on your own. All you need is dozens of diapers, rubber bands, ribbons, few baby gifts and other craft items. However, if you do not want to spend time and effort in making one, you can seek help from a professional or buy a ready-made one.
