By:


A baby shower in the family and friends to celebrate the expected arrival of a new baby in the parents-to-be. This is a joyous occasion and fun for all! But the home of great baby shower with some real planning. A very important part of the planning process of the cake. Every baby shower needs a cake but the cake can serve as more than just a dessert - it can also double as a decoration, a central yet!

Most of the baby shower is a theme, and the whole party is based on that topic. The cake is no exception, and should follow any theme you have chosen. If you are talented, and bake and decorate the cake (or know someone who can), you would like to see a homemade cake. Or you can make one from a bakery, making sure to place your order in plenty of time for the shower.

Having decided that there will be homemade or store-bought, you need to decide what type of cake as well. There are many different types of baby shower cakes to choose from. Some of these include:

Angelfood cake

Butter Cake

Butterfly Cake

Carrot cake

Cheesecake

Chocolate cake

Chiffon cake

Cupcake

Devil's food cake

Fruit cake

Gingerbread

Ice cream cake

Mooncake

Pineapple upside down cake

Pound cake

Spice Cake

Sponge cake

Then there is the stuffing to consider:

More icing

different flavors of fruit preserves

pudding

custard

whipped cream

Plugs

peanut butter

pure chocolate

Not only should you consider what type of cake here, but also how to decorate the cake, so that then the baby shower celebration more special. Here are some ideas:

1. Belly Cake. A great idea is to design a baby shower cake, and it looks like a pregnant belly. This can be done by making a circular cake in front of a rectangular cake and frosting them to resemble a pregnant belly.

2. Toy Blocks Cake. Another idea is to design a baby shower cake, and it looks like a children's toy blocks (up to a large array of smaller blocks or 3-4). Toy block cakes can be raised by surrounding them candy or small toy cars.

3. Autograph cake. This is a great idea, where "Congratulations" is the only word on the cake, leaving room for all the guests to "mark" the icing on their own behalf. The picture is taken of the cake, if everyone has signed, so great keepsake for parents-to-be.

4. Character cake. The cake can be in the form of a character such as Winnie the Pooh.

5. The Baby Bib Cake. Another idea is similar to the character of cake but the cake looks like a baby bib.

There are so many different things you can do a baby shower cake. Here are some other suggestions for types of cakes:

Pram

Bootee

Bassinet

Baby Bottle

Noah's Ark

There's even a "diaper" cake. But watch out - it's really about diapers and not edible!

Sure, you can also experiment with your own creative ideas, or check out the cake design book in the local grocery store or bakery ideas. Remember that the "purpose" is not only a delicious dessert, but a large central or decoration, the memories that stand out to parents-to-be. But do not forget to keep your baby shower theme!
