Diaper Cake

Just because a mommy-to-be is choosing to go the green route with cloth diapers doesn't mean she can't be celebrated with a diaper cake. Instead of whipping up a diaper cake out of rolled up disposable diapers, environmentally conscious mums can turn recyclable items and small bits into a baby gift to boot. A cinch to create, the guest of honor will surely appreciate the thought that went into keeping her nursery eco-friendly and useful, too.

Ships ahoy! If a mama-to-be has a wee sailor on board, throw her a marina themed baby shower complete with a yacht-sized diaper cake. A simple task, it will serve as the perfect centerpiece at the party. When the soiree is over, she can take it home and place it in the nursery until the lil matey arrives.

It's multiple mania here at Sugar! After sending queen Sugar on her way to deliver a healthy baby girl, we showered our own LilSugar in bright floral style. The only thing that could outdo those diaper cakes would be TWO of them. More babies mean more festivities and that includes the decorations. Instead of making one grand centerpiece, I opted to make a couple of smaller ones to send our ShopStyle girl off in, well, style!

Before LilSugar welcomes her third bebe, we decided to throw a fete in her honor. Not wanting to mess with pale pinks and blues, we went for brighter hues to celebrate the sweet mommy. Orange and green were the colors of choice, which proved to be a fan favorite amongst the baby shower revelers. Also a big hit? Rice Krispie Treats on a stick and Arnold Palmers for everyone!

Here at Sugar HQ, we have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of Baby Sugar #2. Lisa, the queen of all things Sugar, has developed a perfectly round bump and big sister Katie is ready for her lil sister's arrival. To honor the sweet family, we decided to use the obvious — confections galore.

For the centerpiece of the soiree, I provided the expectant parents a diaper cake chock full of delicious delights. Since we don't want to leave the sibling out of the celebration, I made a miniature version for her. To keep the guests from attacking the decor, we provided Kara's Cupcakes and sparkling apple cider.
