Well baby season is well and truly underway. I have been busy with sales of nappy cakes and sock bouquets. I have made a couple of nappy cakes to order.
The first was for another close friend of mine, she was expecting a little girl and I was involved with organising her baby shower. Her cake was made out of baby bedding, including a cot bumper, cot quilt and cot fleece, baby vests, bibs, nappies and was topped off with a sock and scratch mit bouquet. If this cake was for sale it would be priced at £75.00 plus P&P.
I was in charge of the games at the Baby Shower too. We played the dirty nappy game, where I melted various bars of chocolates into nappies and you have to guess what type it was. We also had a race to see who was the quickest to eat a jar of baby food fed to them by someone blind folded and I am embarased to say that my husband won that particular game!
The other baby cake was made to send to France for a new baby boy. The client did not want any nappies in the cake so it was filled with bottles, a bottle warmer, baby grows, vests, bibs, a fleece blanket and feeding cloths. It was topped with a soft toy and was decorated with sock rose buds. This cake retails at £48.00 plus P&P.
