Baby Shower Diaper Cake Instructions

We have come up with some directions for making a baby shower diaper cake.

Diaper cakes have become a popular staple at baby showers! They are cute, versatile and always get a ton of compliments!

Diaper cakes make a wonderful baby shower centerpiece and also double as a perfect baby shower gift! The great thing about them is you can make them as big or as small as you'd like!

• First, decide on how big you want the diaper cake. Below are some general guidelines:

  1st Tier (bottom tier)- 30 diapers

  2nd Tier (middle tier)- 15-16 diapers

  3rd Tier (top tier)- 6 diapers

Starting with Tier 1, wrap the first diaper around a baby bottle and secure with a rubber band. Roll the remaining diapers jelly-roll style and secure with rubber bands. Attach the diapers together with safety pins. Branch out from the diaper wrapped around the bottle, forming a circle/cake shape.
• Repeat the process with the remaing tiers, using the correct amount of diapers for each tier (stated above.) The bottle on the top tier will poke out to look like a candle.
• Wrap the layers of the cake with receiving blankets, secure with safety pins.
• Attach the tiers to each other with safety pins and double sided sticky tape.

• Decorate the cake with cute items such as toys, rattles, miniature baby shampoo, powder, soap, fingernail clippers, a baby book, pacifiers, etc.
