Baby Boy Shower Cake

We are getting ready to plan my baby shower party. We are having a baby boy! I would love to have a unique baby shower cake that stands out from all the rest. Do you have any suggestions? We don't really know how to bake so we will probably order one, just don't know what to get. Thanks!!!

You’re not alone on this one. There are many people who approach us with questions about what to do to make their baby shower cake truly original. Not only do you want it to be one-of-a-kind, but you’ll also want the cake to speak volumes about you and your up and coming baby.
First take a moment to think on a few things that make you unique as a mom.

Think about what defines you and what you feel you want to impart the child growing within your womb. Jot down a few things that say to the world, “This is me and this is something I want to pass down to my child to come”.

Do you have a silly side that seems to always cheer up those around you? Consider a monkey baby shower and make your cake a lovely, smiling, happy-go-lucky monkey that greets the world. Are you a nature lover? Think about a hiring a professional baker to sculpt a myriad of animals from fondant or gum paste to decorate a cake that he or she will specially design for you.

Perhaps you are a career girl and love to flaunt your individual business style. Write down a few ideas about your usual attire, your walk, your favorite luncheon hang out, or something else that makes a big impact on you or those around you. When you take your ideas to the bake shop, have you list ready and let them draw up some sketches for you. Be sure to think about any specific color schemes you may desire you cake to follow.

Whatever you do, don’t panic. Just take a deep breathe and jot your notes down so when you go to order your cake, you’ll know more or less what you may want. If the baker is good, they will know how to put the finishing touches on your unique cake!
