Re: Diaper Cake!

I just followed these simple instructions to create the cake for those interested.

Easy To Make Diaper Cakes


Diaper Cake Ingredients:

16" disposable cardboard platter
Baby bottle or empty cardboard towel roll
8 feet of 1” wide ribbon
Rubber bands of different sizes
Clear adhesive tape
Approximately 50 newborn diapers
Decorative baby items (bibs, socks, toys)
Cake Topper (candy filled baby bottle or stuffed animal)



Diapers:
The number of diapers you will require depends on the size and number of tiers you would like your cake to have. On average 50 newborn diapers will create a standard sized 3-layered cake.

20 diapers for the bottom layer
10 to 15 diapers for the middle layer
5 diapers for the top layer
Assembling Your Diaper Cake:

Use a cardboard paper towel roll or a baby bottle to roll your diapers
When rolling your diapers, have them opened lengthwise with tabs tucked in
Secure your diapers with a rubber band whenever necessary
Fold and wrap a receiving blanket around each tier using tape to hold in place
Use a ribbon to cover and hide the rubber band and as a decorative touch.
Assemble your tiers on top of your cake platter, using adhesive tape
Tuck your baby items in the ribbons as decorations
Top your cake off with something fitting the theme of your party. Whether it be a small stuffed toy, a baby bottle or rattle
Other Decorative Ideas:

Drape baby bibs over the receiving blankets
Use baby items related only to your theme
If using a baby bottle as the topper, fill it with candy or small baby items.
Add a professional touch by using clear cellophane. Spread a sheet out and center your cake in the middle. Gather the sides and edges and tie together with a nice ribbon or bow.
