Diaper Cake for a Baby Girl
This is a pink and green 4 tier diaper cake for a baby shower. The top tier (1st layer) has 8 diapers size 2. Each tightly wrapped into a roll and fastened with a rubber band…then one is placed in the middle and the 7 that are left are placed around it to form a circle. Then use a very large rubberband to hold them all together. 2nd layer has 19 total diapers (size 2). I used 7 to make the center and 12 outside the center….all secured the same way and then finally with a huge rubberband. The 3rd layer has 40 total size 2 diapers….I did sneek in some size 3 diapers too. I put 8 diapers in the center, then 13 around the center then 19 round that layer. To make the bigger layers more secure….make the center rounds and fastened with the huge rubberband then when you do the next layer fastenen it with another rubberband….then when you are doing the final layer secure the very outside with another larger rubberband…if you do not have one large enough tie it tight with a ribbon. After I constructed the layers I placed them on a clear plastic party tray from party city or a cake platter would do. I found baby blankets that coordinated with the theme colors (in this case it was pink and green for a baby girl). I folded the baby blakets long and skinny and wrapped the layers with the blanket making sure to end in the back of the diaper cake. I fastened the blankets by tucking it into itself in the back and then I added a ribbon in a coordinating color and I hot glue it in the back ribbon to ribbon. I added baby shoes and a ribbon bow to the top. I added various baby items all of the cake (pacifiers, baby bath, baby lotion, baby toys in the coordinating colors, baby socks and mittens tucked together and the tops ruffled out to mimick roses.) I did poke a dowel down the center of the cake to make it more secure but I didn’t find that was necessary. Good luck on your cake and have fun! I did! (Sorry I haven’t sent this out sooner…I’ve been preparing for Hurricane Gustav!…we live near New Orleans.

Beautiful diaper cake. I’ve read your instructions but I can’t seem to figure out how many diapers the 4th layer has?
Its called Baby Mine its actually from the disney movie Dumbo. I can not place who this singer is, but I know Bette Midler has a version that is similar to this and very pretty
hi there great job , can u tell me the song name and singer thanks
Great looking diaper cake. I love how you used baby receiving blankets as the out side wrap. It gives the cake a very nice smooth finish. When I made my diaper cake I used white waist band elastic and tied it quite snug and that worked great to hold it together. Cheers
