I purchased a small pack of Pampers Stage 1 Swaddlers. I used cake boards, glue dots, ribbon and ruffles to make the cake more fancy.
Also attached are receiving blankets, pacifiers, infant spoons, hats, teething ring, rattles and sleepers. It's topped with a White Teddy Bear which is being supported by a container of Johnsons Baby Powder.
I made this diaper cake for a friend who was expecting a boy. I started out with some buttery cream colored onesies for my inspiration. I used baby wash as the center to hold the cake together. I was originally heading towards an elegant diaper cake, but came across an adorable teddy bear that giggles when you squeeze its toes. It was so cute I couldn't resist! I rolled a summer blanket to look like a rose and ran it through the middle of the cake. I wrapped the bottom two layers with a sparkly gold ribbon. The top layer I tied white tulle around. I finished it off with clear shred to cover the diapers and give a touch of elegance. She loved it!
This kitty in a basket diaper cake has 1 oval wire basket,14 diapers, 1 baby oil, 1 baby Cream, 1 Wash Cloth, 1 teether, 1 bottle and 1 burp cloth. This was ordered for a Baby Shower.
I used size 1 diapers to make this diaper cake. First I wrapped a few diapers around a baby bottle that I filled with pepermints for mom for the top layer. Then I made the 2nd layer and a 3 layer, each layer is bigger than the first. Then comes the fun part, I took all kinds of baby items and attached them all over the cake. I use a lot of ribbon and just have fun with it. I always use receiving blankets to wrap around the 2 and 3 layer and then the top layer. I use a bib to wrap it up. I always try to put a cute little stuffed animal on top as well. All of my friends that I have made one for love them. Oh and to finish it off, I get that sheer see thru material and wrap it all up in it! They are so much fun to make!

 The first attempt at a diapercake, and I think it turned out so cute! It has around 70 size two and three diapers. Very fun!
 Thanks for keeping a fantastic creative website!
 I got the idea of a diaper cake from your website. So I wanted to send a photo of my first try. Everyone was very pleased. Thank You
Diaper Cake "Ingredients"
DECORATION: Cut a 12" cardboard circle. Take a 15" length of a cardboard tube and cut 1 ½" slits on one end. Fan the slits out, put glue on the inside of the slits, and place on the 12" cardboard circle. Cover the base with the 20" piece of gift wrap that you have trimmed to be a circle. Scotch tape the gift wrap in place. Take the 40" piece of 3" lace, and glue it to the top side of the giftwrap. Start by rolling the diapers lengthwise around the baby bottle or around another cardboard tube, and continue to roll the diapers around themselves until you have used 20 diapers for the first layer of the diaper cake. Use scotch tape or string to secure the diapers together, or use rubber bands if you prefer. Do the same to make the second layer of the diaper cake, only this time make it a bit smaller by only using 10-15 diapers. The third, top, layer should be only about 5 diapers round. Place each layer on the base that you have covered with gift wrap and lace. Fold a receiving blanket to match the width of the bottom diaper cake layer and wrap around. Secure the back with a diaper pin. Do the same for the second layer. For the third, smallest layer, use a burp cloth to wrap around the cake layer and secure with a diaper pin. Tie curling ribbon or sheer 5/8" ribbon in whatever colors you choose around each of the 3 layers of the diaper cake, tie leaving enough extra ribbon at the ends to curl. Take the baby items and tuck them in the ribbon to decorate. Top your cake off with a small stuffed animal or beanie toy, or something of similar proportion that matches your cake.
This is my 2nd diaper cake I have made. It is a 4 tier baby boy diaper cake
which contains: They are so much fun to make. I love them.

 I used a cake board as the base and just rolled up many diapers, laid them flat on a table, taped the top part so that it made a straight line and then lifted the diapers onto their side. I then attached each end with tape and filled it in with more diapers. After it was stabled I would pull out random diapers around the perimeter and replace them with a baby cloth rolled up. I did this for three layers and after each layer was done I surrounded it with blue ribbon and then laid sheer polka dot ribbon over that. I then tucked in lots of baby things like pacifiers, little booties etc... I top the diaper cake with a bear and had a ribbon to top him.
