Monkey Business

This cake was made for a good friend of mine since high school.  I had originally intended for the monkey on the left to be the cake topper.  Then my husband suggested I go "King Kong" style (typical man, I guess!) and I have to say, I think it was a wise decision!

Cake Ingredients:
140 Pampers Baby Dry Diapers - Size 1
3 Carters Receiving Blankets
1 Monkey Stuffed Animal
1 Koala Monkey Blankie
1 Light-Up Monkey Toy
Decorative Ribbon and Wood Pieces

My First Puppy Cake

My good friend asked me to make this diaper cake for her friend.  She loves puppies, so we went with a puppy themed cake!  I can't help but love the face on this blue puppy!  Too cute!

It's my understanding that mommy-to-be was in labor the day I delivered this cake - 2 days before her baby shower!  Best of luck to mommy, daddy, and baby!

Towel Cakes

After a couple of wedding shower invites, I decided to try making towel cakes.  I used a few of my own towels to give it a try and it worked out well!

I purchased a few towels off each bride's gift registry.  I have to say, I'm very happy with the results!

The first cake I made was for long-time family friend.  Made with white towels with some pink accents.

 

The second cake was made for my husband's cousin. Made with ice gray towels with purple accents. 

 

 

And my most recent cake was made for a good friend. This cake made with slate color towels and had white and pink accents.

Owl Diaper Cake

A owl themed baby room with gray and touches of orange were the inspiration for this cake!  Initially, I found it very difficult to find the right items for this cake as most baby themed owl stuff is blue or pink.  I was finally able to find a couple items and everything came into place very nicely!  The book was the final touch that made this cake perfect!

Cake Ingredients:

Pampers Baby Dry Diapers

1 Owl Stuffed Animal

1 "Peek-a Who?" Book

1 Baby Hat

1 Baby Bib

1 Long-Sleeve Sleeper

3 Take 'N Toss Spoons

Decorative Ribbon
