A Baby Bootie Diaper Cake ~ How To Instructions

Baby Bootie Cake Instructions

~ This baby bootie diaper cake idea was submitted to our website by Linnette G. from Oviedo, Florida ~

After getting a bootie-shaped cake (the edible kind) for my first baby shower, I decided to create a non-edible rendition made with diapers!

For this bootie cake project, you will need:

1 package of diapers
Receiving blanket
Johnson & johnson travel kit
String frosting
Tulle
Ribbon
Non edible sprinkles- if desired
Additional baby items- if desired

It consists of two layers, the bottom being oval-shaped and the top round. The two layers are held together by a receiving blanket in the middle which holds hidden johnson&johnson baby goodies inside... things like travel lotion, shampoo, powder, body wash, socks, washcloth, and cream.

I just use string to tie the diapers together but have found that binding each diaper with a rubber band first makes the whole process much faster - and easier. I finish off the cake with string 'frosting', tulle and ribbon details, and sometimes add sprinkles as requested.

The cake is then wrapped up in tulle and bound together with some pretty matching ribbon and a heart-shaped gift-card. The large version holds 56 size 1 diapers while the smaller version (which doesn't include the hidden central core) is made with 28 size 1 diapers.

This was a baby bootie diaper cake I made for one of my bosses. I got the idea from your site and THANK YOU! It was a last minute shower and I was scrambling to find a beautiful useful gift!

This is the first ever diaper cake that my best friend and I did. It was for my sisters baby shower and we thought we would share it with those that are thinking of making one.
