Am a newbie and been reading through the pages and think all your work is lovely. I'm a florist as well as a nappy cake maker so if anyone has any trouble finding a supply of anything in particular email me and I may be able to help especially on the sundries side. i use around 3 or 4 online wholesalers who only supply to trade so I may be able to order for you especially if you're in the London area

Lizalloareds and Kelly Lou, the blanket and bear are both from Asda. The bear is actually a comforter, they do them in pink, cream and blue

Some fabulous cakes here - really inspiring stuff! Well done, ladies!


Hoping someone can throw some ideas around for me. Have just been asked to do a neutral, 3-tier cake, without nappies, as the person it's going to is going to be using real nappies.

The budget is £40. What can I put in there to keep its shape & look good?

Was thinking of maybe getting different sized cake / hat boxes & filling those with goodies, then wrapping the blankets around.

Anyone have any other ideas?

Hi Mice_Elf, blankets - fleece and cellular and maybe a towel too if the budget will allow. Bodysuits rolled like nappies would fill most of the bottom tier.

If you used a towel on the middle one, I don't think you would need to put anything else inside. Same for top tier-use cellular blanket or muslins with a card support inside and fill.

I have often thought of using cot/pram sheets but they can be quite expensive.

Mice_Elf

That's a good idea - the middle section could be just a rolled blanket.

Bodysuits would probably need a little extra support as they won't keep their shape as easily as the nappies, but it's definitely worth a try. Maybe add some cake supports for the tiers. Hmm..I've got until next month, but will need to play around with this one to try to get it to look good.

The cream range they have in Wilkinsons(Elly and Raff) have matching Cot Blanket / Pram Blanket and Cuddle Robe(Towel) It's a really nice range and I think the Cot Blanket is about £6.
You could put the cot on bottom then Towel then pram on top Tier.

I shall pop into the closest Wilkinsons to have a look. Thanks very much!
