How to Make a Diaper Cake - Step by step tutorials

Diaper cakes are pretty and useful!

My best (childhood) friend is having a baby! She's due on August the 4th and as she didn't have a baby shower I decided to make a simple diaper cake for her to celebrate the special occasion. She doesn't want to tell which gender the baby will be (will it be a baby girl? will it be a baby boy? Oh my!) so I had to choose a neutral theme and I opted for flower jungle.

This was my first time making a diaper cake and I am really happy with the result (hope you like it too!). I am sharing my "how to tutorial" with step by step instructions and tricks I used to make my 3-tier diaper cake. I also included some other useful tutorials both video and picture to get your imagination running (I really like the motorcycle one - perfect for baby boys!).

Photos on this page are taken by me unless stated otherwise.

How to make a diaper cake step by step tutorial - Making the Base Structure

Instructions

Make a base for the cake. I made it using cardstock paper, 3 layers which I glued one on top of the other to make them more durable. I used a round bake tray as a stencil as I though the size would be right and it was. You don't have to worry about making the base to big or too little as a diaper can be arranged in a way to fit it perfectly.

This is optional but I decided to cover the base with burlap fabric. Glue gun time!

My finished base!

Something to give the structure. I have seen a few of tutorials where they use a cardboard paper roll to hold the cake's structure and you can use that but I think a bottle of wine is a way more fun! I got the Pink Chick (she adores pink) Rose wine which I glued to the base with the glue gun.

Best Kinds of Diapers to Use for a Diaper Cake - And what size to get!

I did some researching online before I started making my diaper cake to see which brand would be the best to use for making a diaper cake. I have read some good reviews about some generic diaper but as this was a gift I decided to go with a more "exclusive" brand.

As for the size of the diaper, I wouldn't give newborn diaper as the little ones grow out of them very quickly, not to mention other people will be getting newborn ones. I decided to go with the size 2 (3 would be OK too).

Well how much of them you need depends on the size of the cake you are making. I bought a pack of 96 and used 86 of them for my creation.

Roll, roll, roll the diaper... - This will take a while

Roll the diapers as shown on the picture. Start with the end that opens and roll them up. Use a rubber band to keep them in shape but make sure the band is a bit loose so it won't damage the diaper.

Place a rubber band around the bottle and add 3 diaper rolls (you can add more if you have larger rubber bands). Place another rubber band around the bottle and one of the diapers which is already around the bottle and add 2 additional diaper rolls (each rubber band holding 3 diapers, sharing one with the other band). Continue until you make the whole circle.

Now that the first circle is done it's time to go to the middle one (and well the outer one). Place the rubber around two diaper rolls from the first circle and add 3 diaper rolls to the outer one. Continue until you make the whole circle.

These steps are applied on all tiers.

Tiers are stacking! We are almost done with this diaper cake

Adding the final details! - Welcome to the jungle

I used burlap fabric to cover up the rubber bands (and make the cake look pretty!). The regular glue didn't work so I used a glue gun. Be sure to place something behind the working area (where you will apply the glue) so that it doesn't get in contact with the diapers.

Ta-daa!

3 on the ribbon (to hide where I glued the ribbon ends together), the other 3 I just placed on the cake.
