Boy Diaper Cake

My very first time making a diaper cake.. My cake consists of 3 tiers, no rubber bands, soft blanket threaded through the middle of cake, monkey on top with pacifier, socks rolled around bottom tier, baby shoes,receiving blanket around middle tier, several layers of cute ribbon, and some goodies in the back of cake.

Boy 4-tier Diaper Cake

by Christel Cook
(Houston, Texas USA)

I used about 100 diapers. Wide ribbon and in the center I used baby bottles to stabilize the diaper cake. I added trial size baby powder, lotions, and shampoo. Also, washcloths, booties, and stuffed animals. Used Tulle around the bottom to make it look like a real cake. To top it off I added a cute stuffed lion for a decorative topper!

Diaper Cake For Boy

(Fairmont, MN, USA)

Diaper Cake For Boy...

This cake was made with Huggies brand diapers rolled up in to tubes.

Inside the cake is Baby Lotion then I surrounded it with rolled up diapers.

Then I added another ring around it. Then I added one more ring to complete the fourth layer on the cake.

After finishing up the rings, I took out some of the diapers and replaced them with 8 oz bottles.

This gives it more stability. The third layer has the same amount of rings of rolled up diapers.

I wrapped a cotton baby blanket around the bottom two layers and secured it with safety pins (just in the blanket, not into the diapers.

The second layer has baby powder as the center and then two rings of diapers around it.

The top layer of the diaper cake is just one ring of diapers. I have onesies, socks, and a bib rolled up and "hiding" in the cake.

The grosgrain ribbon is wrapped around the center of the two layers of the bottom layer and the center of the middle of the top and middle layers.

I also added some tiny ribbons that I tied in bows to every other diaper. The final step was adding the toys, pacifier, and bib. The initial is hand painted and has their first name written on the wooden initial.

This completes my initial diaper cake! :)

Boy Deluxe Diaper Cake

by Rebbecca Dixon
(Tell City, IN)

Boy Deluxe Diaper Cake

For the deluxe style, I make sure I have my 85 diapers, cake pans to help arrange them uniformly in the fanned style.

Make three tiers (40, 28, and 17 diapers) and secure them with rubber bands around the outside of each tier.

I use cardboard paper towel rolls in the center for stability, then decorate according to baby shower theme or nursery theme.

In the case of this diaper cake it was decorated for the baby shower colors of blue, green and brown.

I included a Curious George stuffed animal that the customer had. So I also incorporated some monkey embellishments to tie George in with the cake.

Use a different amount of diapers for each layer (tier). Getting smaller each time. Tie ribbons around each tier to secure.

Now it's time to start decorating! Roll the wash clothes like you did the diapers and tie them with ribbon.

Roll the mittens and slide them in the favor bag. Put the spoons and the comb and brush set in the ribbon tied around the cake layers and randomly place all of your decorations on the cake. Place the stuffed animals on top or on the side using baby diaper pins to do so.

It's a Boy! Diaper Cake

by Nathalie
(Wellington, FL)

This was my first diaper cake. I made this"It's a Boy Diaper Cake" with size 1 Pampers Swaddlers diapers.

I bought a 92 ct box but did not use all of the diapers. I will give my friend the remaining diapers along with her present so she'll have the complete box.

The middle is supported with a 12 inch plastic cake dowel.

Three diapers are wrapped (jelly roll style) around the top-middle-bottom sections of the dowel and secured with rubber bands.

The remaining diapers are also rolled up and secured with rubber bands (each).

I started by building the bottom layer first. Each row of diapers is secured with white ribbon to hold them together.

Once I constructed a 3 tiered cake, I decorated it with ribbon and used a teddy-blankie as a cake topper.

I can't wait to deliver this cake!

Blue Baby Boy Diaper Cake

How to make this Blue Baby Boy Diaper Cake

What joy it is to create a lovely memory and (work of art) for a friend.

I based my cake after the topper I found at a nearby party store for about $3.00. (This store was privately owned and had everything from dresses to invitations and crafts. These mom and pop stores usually have the best crafts that entice the mind with ideas.)

The topper had a traditional delicate feeling, therefore I stayed with a crisp white and blue theme.

1.I first used a tall round oatmeal container for the center of the cake. Any round tall container will work-look around your house for ideas.

2.Small diapers (with blue lining) were then rolled and held together with thick rubber bands (if you use thin ones they'll bend the diapers).

3.Diapers were then placed around the bottom of the container.

4.Ribbon (purchased at a craft store 3-4 yards around $2.00) is then measured around the perimeter of the bottom layer with a 1/2" extra. Then a strand of white pearls(purchased at a craft store 3-4 yards around $2-3) is hot glued to the ribbon. Then the final ribbon is placed around the tier and hot glued at the ends.

5.Repeat this process for the second tier.

6.If the top tier will not fit around the oatmeal container, then use something around the house ex. a can of soup. Repeat the process of the other tiers.

7.The top two Styrofoam discs (less than a dollar each, can be purchased at craft places such as Hobby Lobby,Joanne Fabrics, and Wal Mart. Repeat ribbon technique and hot glue the Styrofoam discs on top of each other.

8.Place and hot glue the lovely boy topper on the top Styrofoam disc (around $1.50 at any craft store).

9.Lastly place cake on top of doily(any craft store at around $2.00 per package)and hot glue the bottom diapers and container to it. Then decorate and glue to the cake blue and white flowers.(purchased at Wal mart in the scrapbook section for less than $1.00 per package).

Voila! you have an original, priceless, timeless, piece of work to give.

Transporting ideas...place the cake in a round laundry basket in order to keep it from moving in your car.

Other cake ideas... if your friend or family member has already picked out a tier cake, then surprise her with a replica of the cake and turn it into a diaper cake.

The base of the cake contains 30 diapers held together by one large rubber band.

Each diaper is taped to keep them from coming apart,I wrapped a blanket around the base secured with safety pins.

2nd level contains 15 diapers.

I covered each tier with ribbon to hide the rubber bands,the cake contains bottle, rattle, washcloths, pacifier, spoon set, and teether.

I hot glued the elephant to the ribbon on the 3rd tier.

Baby Boy Diaper Cake

by Lin
(Florida)

Baby Boy Diaper Cake

1 box of 60 #2 diapers
Small and Large rubber bands
Ribbon - White 2.5 inch. 6 yards
Ribbon - Stripped 1 inch. 6 yards
Tissue paper - White
Shredded Paper - Yellow 1 bag
Wilton Baby Topper
Wilton White 12" ruffle board (Cardboard)
Cake Sticks White about 8 - 10"
Little Blue Pacifiers

Roll each diaper (roll opening of diaper into the diaper) and place a small rubber band around each one. Take a large rubber band and place it around 2 rolled diapers, continue to add rolled diapers until you form a circle for the 1st layer (almost the width of the Wilton board). When you form the bottom circle take 3 cake sticks and place in the diapers for support for the next layer of diapers. Take tissue paper and rap it around the bottom layer of diapers. Cut extra tissue paper off at the corners and tuck under the layer of diapers.

Make your 2nd circle of rolled diapers about a 1/2 - 1 inch smaller than the bottom layer performing the same process as stated above. Slide the 2nd layer of diapers onto the sticks. Place tissue paper around the 2nd layer as you did the 1st layer. Make a 3rd level of rolled diapers and place over the sticks and place tissue paper around it.

Take wide white ribbon and place around the layer of diapers covering the entire side. Since my ribbon wasn't wide enough to cover the height of the diapers, I placed 2 rows of white ribbon on each layer. You can use straight pins or a little of hot glue to hold the ribbon.

Place the stripped ribbon in the center of the white ribbon around each layer of diapers. Attach the same way as you did the white ribbon.

Place shredded paper on the top of each layer. Make a bow for the top of the diaper cake. Hot glue shredded paper, bow and baby topper to the cake. Use very little glue so it doesn't stick to the diapers.

I took the baby shower invitation and cut it down to a smaller size. I took green floral wire and glued it in between the invitation and then placed it into one of the diaper openings at the back of the cake.

I added little pacifiers on top of the shredded paper which you can?t see very well in this picture.
