Baby Boy Diaper Cake

With our friends having a baby boy next month, we wanted to throw them a baby shower. I, of course, decided to make a diaper cake because, well why not! So I did a little Pinteresting and didn’t like what I found so I just kind of winged it and now love how the cake turned out. It even has a surprise inside the cake that mommy and daddy can both enjoy...a bottle of sparking apple cider!

I started by purchasing a variety of items to make the cake:
- An economy size box of newborn diapers from Sam’s Club
- A bag of rubber bands
- Bottle of Sparkling Apple Cider
- Ivory tulle

- Tissue Paper
- Small picture frame with picture of the parents to be

- Small items to decorate the cake

​I started by rolling up a whole slew of baby diapers with a rubber band. Don’t use pins because then the diapers are worthless for the parents to be able to use later.

Then I put the bottom layer together by wrapping the diapers with the tulle and then adding more diapers until the base layer became the size I wanted. The tulle worked splendidly because it held the diapers in place and you can’t really tell it’s there.

Then I started the next layer the same way. The cider bottle is not only a great center support for the cake but it’s a fun suprise for the parents when they get home! I found that a three layer cake worked perfectly for the 176 diapers I had purchased. I only had about 30 left over and I put them in a gift bag with tissue paper to give as part of their gift as well.

After the shape of the cake was made I was ready for the best part...decorations! I put two different ribbons on and made sure I hid the rubber bands on the diapers.

​Then I played around with the other decorations I bought to see what I liked the look of the best. I find layering is always a good option!

​Just remember to have fun with the decorations and buy more than you think you will need. It is better to have to return stuff than run out.
