A cloth diaper cake is a unique and beautiful way to display cloth diapers. It is also a great way to give a new mom a “head start” on her cloth diapering journey! A cloth diaper cake can be made with any type of cloth diaper, but all-in-one (AIO) diapers are most commonly used.
Cloth diaper cakes can be decorated with anything from ribbons and bows to stuffed animals and toys. They make wonderful baby shower gifts and can be tailored to match the theme of the shower.

The next step is to roll each diaper into a tight tube shape and secure it with a rubber band. Once all of the diapers are rolled, you will start stacking them into a cake shape.

You're right, diaper cake is a must have in a baby shower. You almost give the good gift for a soon to be born baby when you bring this at his/her baby shower. All of the consumables here can be used by them.

I've bought a cake from them before. Their diaper cakes look more modern than most cakes you can buy right now.
