Diaper Cake Business
by Barb Ireland

Diaper Cakes are becoming more popular for baby showers and newborn
gift ideas. These cakes, which offer everything a new mom needs for
her new bundle of joy, can make any baby shower unforgettable. Not
only do they leave a lasting impression, but the new mother can use
every item in the cake, from the blankets to the diapers, thus
providing a fun and useful gift for the proud mom-to-be. You can
make them a three layer to just a one layer depending on the size
gift you want to send.

Here are top five tips to making a diaper cake.

Fill your cakes with items you know the mother will be using.
Diapers and blankets we all know, but items like baby lotions,
powder, hand sanitizer, nail clippers, bottom balm, or Vaseline. You
may also include a bottlebrush, baby bottle, scratch mittens and so
on.

Choose quality products when you can. I use Luvs diapers as they are
bigger and make your cake more stable. Blanket size does matter.
Keep that in mind when deciding on the size of your cake. For
example, 7, 8, 10, or 12 29x29 will give you an 8" cake and 30 x 40
will give you an 12" cake, a burp cloth will give you an 7" (they
have really cute and colorful burp clothes out now) for a 10" this
size is in between so you can use a 30 x 40 and just bring in one
end a little more to make it a 10".
Make sure you wrap cake as this will deter others form touching or
moving items around. Use cellophane wrap or cellophane bags, or
tulle. Use lots of curly ribbon makes your cakes look so pretty.

Have fun and create your own style everyone has their own. Themed
cakes are very popular (Disney). Also if the sex of baby is unknown
don't fear...mix it up a bit go with neutral colors. If you know the
babies room color that is even better.

If your choosing this as a business-congrats. Making diaper cakes
for a living is so much fun and very rewarding. A few starter tips
are: Have professional pictures taken of your cakes. Use these as a
portfolio and put them in a book for show and tell. Have business
cards made up and brochures. Set your pricing. Tell everyone about
your cakes. It is the best time start as many people in your city
have more then likely not even heard of a diaper cake.
