My diaper cake that is. We are having a baby shower with a luau theme for my daughter, so I made a diaper cake to go with the theme. I had never made one before, so I would like to know your opinion. What do you think? Have you ever made a diaper cake before? I hope everyone has a good day!

Very unique cake. I do like it. How did you make it? It does not look like you can eat it, I am going to ask the stupid question so here goes. Is there cake under the diapers or is it just for show?

The whole cake is made of diapers. It's a gift for the mom to be. It's just in the shape of a cake. I rolled each diaper to make the cake. There are about 65 stage 2 diapers in the diaper cake.

Did you mean that you made 65 packs of two diapers each. I do not quite understand 65 stage 2 diapers what you mean by that. Thanks for the info

It is very pretty. The only diaper cake I've ever seen was decorated with baby things, like pasifiers and the peices of a mobile.

Thank you Elic, I have put little baby things inside the diaper cake, but I am using it for a table decortaion too, so I didn't want to put anything on the outside. I was thinking of making two different kinds.

Hello Ourdew, Cong. on being a Grandmother. I have never made one but I have been to a baby shower for my cousin and her mother-in-law made one. I was really cute and she gets to keeps all the diaper. So it's not like the just give a package of diapers to her. At the baby shower people try to guess the amount of diapers that took to make it and they win a pize. I think you schould do it. It will turn out really cute. Good luck, Blue eyed beauty

Thanks so much nicholejade You can come over and have some cake, maybe one of the other cakes I'm making for the shower might taste better. I'm making a coconut cake, a pineapple cake and a vanilla with pudding inside. Take your pick.

Thank you crixiegreen...I put some baby items inside the cake, but I didn't want to put any on the outside since it's going to be used as a decoration also. I did buy some of those things but put them in a gift bag.
