Baby Shower Centerpieces

Planning a baby shower goes beyond inviting guests and picking out a gift. If you’re planning an actual party and not a brief gathering, you should consider the décor for the event. For many baby showers, this involves deciding on pink or blue, if you know the sex of the baby, or going with another style. Some parents, however, may specify that they want to take more of a gender-neutral approach. No matter the type of décor, the party needs a centerpiece and, in recent years, diaper cakes have increased in popularity in this aspect. Festive and decorative, a diaper cake becomes the center for the party and is practical once the event is over.

A diaper cake, in addition to matching your décor, is also ideal as a baby gift. Each diaper cake made by Rattlecake contains 100 to 150 diapers and many other baby products. No matter if you choose a girl, boy, or neutral design, the cake contains multiple diapers wrapped together and various baby products attached to the outside. This may be blankets, clothing, soft toys, rattles, teething toys, and bath products. The gift gives parents a start on the amount of diapers they’ll need and provides them with several other products that will be used during the first year.

While diaper cakes are attractive baby shower centerpieces, they’re designed to be used after the shower is over. Cakes, with ribbons and many smaller products, are colorful and bright baby shower centerpieces and are broken down once the baby shower is over. As babies will need thousands of diapers for the first two years, the amount in the diaper cake will give parents a head start for their new baby. The additional products, from clothing to blankets, will all be used during the first year.
