hello everyone, never been here before, and im intrigued at what the nappy cake actually is, what it looks like, and how to make them, as i another nephew on the way and a great neice, and i want to get them something nice

Congrats Lou

Webitha, if you type "diaper cake" into youtube some instructions will come up

You can put what ever you like into them and make them look how every you want. These are 2 of mine



This is what went into it

37 size 3 Huggies with Tigger on
1 baby blanket
1 Tigger hat
2 pairs of Tigger socks
1 Muslin
1 "I love my Mummy" Tigger outfit
1 pair of Tigger Pop ons
1 Tigger Bib
1 pair scratch mitts
1 cake board




35 size 3 Huggies
1 baby bear pink hooded towel
1 matching washcloth
1 strong pink muslin
1 pale pink muslin
1 bear comfortor (brown bear holding a pink blanket)
2 pairw of white and pink socks
1 pair of scratch mitts
1 reusable cake board

I'm doing one with a £50 budget at the moment so its packed with goodies, you can put as much in as you like, just take out some nappies and replace them with gifts

HAPPY NEW YEAR! everyone.
Not been on here for a while.

vikkie_louise, your cakes are fabulous - love the pink one especially. I've been thinking about getting some of those blankie bears but keep hoping they put them in the sale first.

Made this cake today but I don't think the bear is the right colour, or maybe if I change the ribbons??? Click to make bigger!

Thank you I keep checking to see if they go in the sale (I have been buying them since about july) but am yet to see them on sale. my dad said they have changed the design now and they aren't as nice which is a shame, but im glad i stocked up!

I liked your cake how it is Does he only have a smile on one side though? I love the wayyou have done an outfit on the middle teir, is it a little baby grow round one of hte nappies at the top?

Thanks vikkie_louise!
Yes, he is meant to have just half a smile it's one of the "Roly" bears from Clintons Party shop. New range for babies. I think I will look for something else - not happy with it.
I always do my 3 Tiers the same with a sleepsuit around the 2nd tier and a bodysuit rolled up at top in place of a nappy. It's hard to get it rolled up right height etc without it ending up bumpy and to get the pic in right place.
I want to try and change designs this year but not sure what to do yet.

Changed the teddy on the cake I made - think it looks better!

Where is everyone?????

I think its just us moonpenny, lol! I liked your cake the first time but it does look nicer with the white teddy, really beautiful

Poppy105 Lovely cakes! Can't quite make out what is under the pink and blue toys? Or is the toy wrapped around something?
I really like your Giraffe Towel one. I'm a sucker for creamy coloured ones.

I uploaded a pic of my last cake but then I decided to have a major "re-organize" on Photobucket, so it has now deleted it. Sorry about that.
