New Baby Gift Baskets – Nappy Cake Gifts Ideas

New Baby Gift Baskets – Nappy Cakes Make Beautiful Gifts.

One of the best ideas for new baby gift baskets is to fill it full of items that they can use when the new baby gets older. The trouble is when family and well meaning friends are looking to purchase new baby gift baskets they buy gifts to fill the basket only suitable for a new born.

What happens is the new parents get home and dress the baby in the new outfits given and by the time it comes to wear your outfit it may have already out grown the gift you gave without the chance to use the gift.

Nappy Cakes - The perfect new baby gift baskets:


Nappy Cakes or Diaper Cakes as our US counterparts call them are non-edible cakes made from disposable or cloth nappies. This is a boom for the new Mum who with getting used to the babies schedule she will be able to use the nappy cakes rather than having to go to the shops.

Nappy Cake suggestions:

• When ordering nappy cakes online ensure you select the next size up rather than a new born size.


• Have a budget in mind and stick to it.


• Romper suit, bibs, singlets and socks are a very welcomed as this is what a baby will soil and need changing regularly.


• Good fillers for the cake are things that worked for you when you were raising children. Gripe water is still used for wind problems and is still a popular choice today along with zinc based creams for protecting delicate skin. Paw paw cream is also an appreciative antiseptic cream. Along with Bonjella when the baby is teething.


• Soft stuff toys, rattles or eating utensils are also a popular choices.

A number of customers order new baby gift baskets that have all sorts of things to spoil Mum as well. The Nappy Cakes make up the gift basket and it will have gorgeous little useful gifts for the baby but will also include chocolates, massage or facial vouchers.
