    Simple Baby Shower Safari Cake Ideas

    Your baby shower safari cake ideas should be consistent with the theme of the party. Consider these helpful hints if you are trying to keep it in budget, have limited resources to rely on (e.g. friends that bake, etc), need to manage time and resources, and most important your sanity.

    It’s a great experience, planning and hosting a shower. While the expectations may be high, the pressure need not be. To maintain that, inquire ever so discreetly with the mother-to-be and her sweet tooth preferences.

    With your party theme, and sweet tooth preferences in mind, your baby shower safari cake ideas could easily fit on a sheet cake or cupcakes. Keep the cake mix and frosting consistent with your party theme and mama’s sweet tooth preferences as much as possible. Here is where you can save yourself by utilizing store bought cake mix and frosting – when bought on sale, you have an even better deal!

    When purchasing charms or making favors, be sure to purchase or make a few more to be used as decorations for the cake. Baby Shower Safari Cake Decorations can also be found consistent with your theme. Be sure to size these items so that they fit on the sheet cake or cup cakes nicely.

    It’s a simple approach that’s consistent with mama’s preferences and the shower party theme: (1) keep the cake base simple, sheet or cupcakes; (2) use store-bought cake mix and frosting; (3) incorporate favors and charms being used for the shower as baby shower safari cake decorations; or (4) purchase cake decorations that complements your shower theme. Voila! There you have it. It’s sure to be elegant, tasty, and no party-hostess’ sanity was sacrificed for the good of the shower.

    Who Pays For the Baby Shower? ? A Tale of Three Moms-to-Be

    Who Pays For the Baby Shower? ? A Tale of Three Moms-to-Be

    It seems so simple, but the question of who pays for the baby shower can be amazingly complicated. Gone are the days where every young mother aspires to a small house with a picket fence, and is dreadfully short on baby supplies.

    In fact, the whole point of the shower has undergone a transformation. Some young moms-to-be depend on its bounty to get ready for baby, while others want a more social, upscale event just to celebrate. Misunderstandings abound, which sadly, can strain old friendships.

    Read our tale of three baby showers below and you’ll avoid the worst pitfalls, bring close friends even closer and still have the shower of your dreams.

    1) Tana’s Old-School, Stress-Free Shower

    Tana doesn’t realize it, but her baby shower situation’s more classic than Classic Coke, so it’s going to be a breeze to pull off.  She’s 21, and her husband was recently deployed. She lives on base and is mostly broke, but she’s rich in friends!  They want to help celebrate this huge life event by hosting her shower.

    The friends are pretty broke too, so three of them cleverly co-host, reducing the burden on each. First, they determine the budget (Tana’s mom contributes, freeing up some room). Then, they pick a venue. They decide on Stacey’s house, since it’s the largest. It can comfortably accommodate about 25 people, so they ask Tana for a guest list of that size.

    In preparation for the party, the hostesses whip up some finger food, fruit punch and iced teas. They snag some inexpensive fresh flowers from a farmer’s market, bake a cake, and hand out homemade cookies for favors. They’ve planned a few games to pass the time, with prizes sourced from the dollar store.

    The shower’s a complete success, with Tana getting some much-needed items and a fat stack of diapers. She thanks her hostesses for their hard work and kindness, and presents them all with a lovely gift.

    Moral of the story: The perfect situation and perfect etiquette led to a warm and loving shower that Mom-to-be and friends will remember forever.

    2) Madison’s Chic But Troubled Shower

    Madison, 26, had a five star wedding, with magazine-worthy photos to prove it. She’s seen plenty of pics of truly stylish baby showers, and she’d love one of her own. In fact, she’d really rather do this party herself, but knows that’s considered less than kosher.

    Seeing the need, her friend Lauren generously volunteers to play hostess. Immediately, Madison gives her a guest list of 75 people. This puts Lauren in a bind, since her house isn’t large enough, but Madison suggests hosting the shower at a restaurant instead.

    Now Lauren’s really starting to stress. She knows it’s extremely poor etiquette to ask shower attendees to pay for their meal, but there’s no way Lauren can cover food for 75 at Chez Henri’s.

    In the meantime, Madison – wanting the perfect event – is calling up Lauren and “suggesting” she buy the favors Madison picked out, leaving hints about linens and a two-tier fondant cake, and offering floral suggestions that sound kind of expensive. Sensing Lauren’s distress, Madison eventually offers to pay half the cost of the shower. But the remainder’s still much more than Lauren ever planned to spend, and now both Mom and hostess are feeling a little resentful.

    Moral of the story: Micro-managing showers through a “front person” is a recipe for disaster, and your friends should never be asked to host a gala event. Galas need to be funded by the mom-to-be or her close family relatives … never, ever friends.

    Etiquette-Friendly Twist: What if you’re set on that perfect shower of your dreams, but want to let your friends lend a hand? Cover the costs yourself, let them contribute a modest amount (in food, labor or money, whichever they prefer), then give them all the credit as hostesses. Sneaky? Yes, but it’s so generous we think Miss Post herself would approve.

    3) Josh and Kelly’s Modern, Self-Hosted Shower

    Kelly, 37, is an intellectual-property attorney on track to make partner within five years. This is her first (and by plan, her only) baby, and she and husband Josh couldn’t be more excited. They’ve spent scores of hours planning the nursery, and they want to celebrate together with their closest friends.

    Although Kelly knows perfectly well that etiquette says someone else should host, she’s planning something catered, with live musicians – something that their couple friends will have a blast attending. A graphic designer friend is designing the custom stationery, and Kelly adores picking over all the details: she’s just ordered cupcakes with hand-quilted buttercream and sculpted mini-sailboats. The couple already has what they need for baby, so they’ll request “no gifts” on the invite, even though some people will ignore it.

    At the end of the day, the shower is exactly what they wished for, with heartfelt exclamations of “this is the best baby shower I’ve ever been to!” and plenty of oohs and ahhs over the nursery.

    Moral of the Story: Knowing she needed to handle the details herself led to a warm stash of memories from preparing the party, and even more from the actual event. Kelly adored every minute of it.

    By now it’s probably pretty clear how to steer through these waters and retain old friends. If you can honestly let go of the process, enjoy a simple, old-fashioned shower and avoid overburdening your BFFs, then lucky you! Your nearest and dearest get the chance to show their love and friendship – and make a big difference to you and your newborn.

    But if you’re really talking a social event with a hefty price tag to match, then kiss off the rule book and grab the reins. Best of luck … and enjoy your baby shower to the hilt!

    How sweet it is! Spend some time in the cutest corners of the web, checking out adorable baby shower cake ideas — and some of the most ahhh-worthy baby shower favors in existence. But be warned … too much exposure to all this baby eye candy and your practical family planning might fly right out the window!

    Baby Shower Cake Ideas

    The most important thing not to be forgotten at a baby shower party to make it a success is to remember the reason behind the get together and that being is baby.

    What is a baby shower, well let me tell you it is an occasion to celebrate the newest edition to the family. Originally baby showers were intended for first-borns, but in the modern world baby shower parties are practised for every baby born into the family and why not every baby deserves just as much attention as any other.

    Baby showers normally have close relatives at hand tending to all the planning alongside mum/dad to be. Remember there are some cultures and religious beliefs that believe certain things like parties or belongings to baby brought into the home before the birth is considered unlucky.

    Alias names for Baby showers as such have come under titles like Daddys shower, Men-only party for dads-to-be, Diaper showers or baby sprinkles, whatever this is all about welcoming the new baby. Guests invited to babys party bestow and shower gifts, hence the name baby showers. Not forgetting  Grandmas shower where party guests bring baby items  such as collapsible cribs and changing pads these gifts stay at the home of the grandparents, need I say any more. This is most probably where the famous saying comes in left holding the baby, well thats what grandparents are for.

    Parents love a theme behind there baby shower party and why not something to get excited over secondly to that of the birth of baby. Essential needs to get the party into full swing include games the feast and presents and last but not least the cake which at a baby showers party is considered not complete unless this bakers confection is present.

    To make your babys day extra special why not bake your own cake, dont worry if you have no experience in this department ready made mixtures for cakes are available with recipe instructions made easy to follow. The hardest part about baking your own is choosing the flavour.  Butter cake/ Chiffon cake/ Cupcake/Chocolate cake/ Cheesecake/ Fruit cake/ Carrot cakes are just a few to mention.

    A good idea is to bake the main cake of your choice with a couple of others that differ in ingredients. Good and simple choices and inviting to the taste bud is the Butterfly cake/ Gingerbread/ Spice cake/ Sponge cake, the list is endless. Remember this is your babys shower party so you get to choose.

    Specially selected baby shower cake ideas

    1. Why not try the belly cake a cake designed to look like that of a pregnant belly You can do this by placing a round cake in front of a square cake then sprinkle icing sugar over them both thus resembling that of a rounded belly.

    2. Then we have the popular Toy Blocks Cake. Another fabulous idea that goes down well at baby shower parties, bake the cake to look like childrens toy blocks (one large block accompanied by 3 to 4 smaller blocks). Enhance the Toy block cakes by surrounding them with candies or little novelty toys. Make sure these are removed when eating.

    The cake centre piece will stand out in the memories of the parents-to-be but never near as much as to why the reason behind why the cake stands there in the first place.
    Congratulations.

    I made a video on how to cover cupcakes with fondant using store bought frosting and a pasta maker to roll out the fondant. It worked very well, and tasted great. I will be following up with a tutorial on using these cupcakes as a base to apply cutouts from the Cricut Cake. Fondant recipe: Place 16 ounces of mini marshmallows and 3 tablespoons of water (or 2 1/2 tablespoons of water and 1/2 tablespoon vanilla flavoring) in a bowl greased with Crisco. Microwave for one minute, mix, and continue microwaving 30 seconds at a time until the marshmallows are all melted. Add one tablespoon of Crisco vegetable shortening to melted marshmallows, and mix to incorporate (this will help to make the fondant more pliable). Place 8 cups (2 pound bag) of confectioner’s sugar in a large mixer (kitchenaid), and then pour the melted marshmallows in. Begin stirring the mixture together on low, and continue until almost all of the sugar is incorporated into the marshmallow (not all of it will mix in), and until fondant is no longer very sticky. If you want to color it all one color, add the coloring now. Pour fondant out onto a surface sprinkled with powdered sugar, and knead adding more sugar if necessary. Store for several weeks in an airtight container on the counter or refrigerated.
