A baby shower is a way for family and friends to celebrate the expected arrival of a new baby with the parents-to-be. It is a joyous occasion and fun for all! But hosting a great baby shower takes some real planning. A very important part of the planning process is the cake. Every baby shower needs a cake, but the cake can serve as more than just a dessert–it can also double as a decoration, even a centerpiece!
Most baby showers have a theme, and the entire party is based on that theme. The cake is no exception and should also follow whatever theme you’ve chosen. If you’re talented and can bake and decorate a cake (or know someone who can), you may want to have a home-made cake. Or you can order one from a bakery, making sure you place your order in plenty of time for the shower.
Once you’ve decided whether it will be home-made or store-bought, you will need to decide what type of cake to have. There are many different varieties of baby shower cakes to choose from. Some of them are listed below:
Angelfood cake
Butter cake
Butterfly cake
Carrot cake
Cheesecake
Chocolate cake
