OUT With The Outrageous: An End To Despicable Baby Shower Cakery!

A BABY SHOWER.

It not only honors the mother-to-be, but welcomes the coming of her bundle of joy by surrounding her with family and friends. She gets diapers, wipes, toys, plenty of clothes the baby won't get a chance to wear and gift cards to Babies R US and Walmart. There's food, games and plenty pictures of THE BELLY! It's not a shock to see either a cake or another baked good served towards the end of the celebration, but it is a shock to see what people are putting on the dessert table!

Here are (unfortunately) ACTUAL cakes presented at a baby shower:

People will appreciate your effort, but this design holds no value in theme or design. Stray away from cakes that resemble human body parts--it makes the cutting process very weird...

Believe it or not, you can think 'outside of the box' without presenting a cake with a baby outside of the belly. It's been done so many times that the idea is played and comes across as mediocre.

A picture of a naked woman "popping" out a baby from her vagina, as a cake? Really? These images may hold an element of humor, but truth be told they are outrageous, derogatory and will leave your guests with a bad after-taste, both literally and figuratively.

There needs to be a rule set for ALL events: cakes that resemble human body parts shouldn't be allowed. Seriously, if cakes are being cut, ESPECIALLY infront of your guests, an uneasy feeling can come from smiling at a camera while 'cutting' the head of a what's meant to look like a person. Steer clear away from "baby" baby shower cakes and baked goods...you'll thank yourself later...
