how to make a diaper cake


Brittany and i did a brown and blue diaper cake. It was easier then i thought and it didn't even take that much time to make, about an hour or so.

First you will need:

  • about 62 size 2 diapers, total
  • scissors
  • white balloon ribbon
  • the decorations you need for the cake, be it a girl or boy.



First you start out by laying the diaper flat on the floor

Then you roll it like a cinnamon roll

Finally, tie the balloon ribbon around the middle of the rolled diaper.

The first layer I used 7 diapers, one in the middle and six around the middle one.

Once you have made the 7 rolls tie the seven together in the middle as tight as you can.

Next comes the the second layer which has 19 size 2 diapers 1 in the middle 6 in the second circle 12 on the outside circle.
Finally, the third and bottom layer is 36 size 2 diapers. 1 in the middle 6 in the second circle 12 on the third circle, and 17 on the outside circle.




The final outcome for my baby boy diaper cake

AND it looked so great that the baby shower. Also its a big hit at the party, it is a show stopper.
