Being Pregnant
Top 10 Best and Worst Baby Shower Cakes
Talking about a possible baby shower got me all excited about the baby shower cake (should I have one). A few links into my search and I was not only smitten with the cake artistry out there (I mean WOW people), but I was also a bit creeped out by the baby shower cakes gone oh-so-wrong.
Here’s a roundup of the 10 best and worst baby shower cakes out there right now…
We’re just here to check out the swag, anyway — check out Babble’s picks for baby shower presents!

Kim commented on Jun 21 11 at 12:15 pm…I actually think the baby butt one is pretty funny…it’s something a few of my friends would do.
arianne commented on Jun 21 11 at 12:41 pm@Kim I know it may just be me, but the baby bum (espesh the feet) is too realistic!
Kim commented on Jun 21 11 at 1:02 pm@Arianne Yeah, I didn’t pay as much attention to the feet at first. It’s a little weird because it’s sort of a cross between realistic and cartoon-y. I think if it was super cartoon-y, it’s funny. But I can also totally understand not wanting to eat a babies butt:).
Violeta Gill commented on Jun 21 11 at 1:38 pmMain reason why I went to school to be a pasrty and baking chef is to make beautiful cakes! Baby shower and birthday cakes are my fav!

arianne commented on Jun 21 11 at 3:49 pm@Emily – OH EM GEE. I had to click away before he cut so I don’t know if he did but EEEEP! ::shudder:: I think I’m a little traumatized… LOL!
Michele commented on Jun 21 11 at 11:51 pm@Emily – OMG! I had to click out of that too before he cut into it. I can’t believe someone thought that was a good idea for a cake.
Michelle Megibben commented on Jun 22 11 at 2:22 amI wouldnt wanna eat the baby and the sleeping teddy cake, weird! Olivias cake is toooo much naybe put a blankir over her? lol eww!!
Casey commented on Jun 22 11 at 4:57 pmbeautifully done.. but I dont think I could cut a body part off of a baby.. let alone eat it. Jeffrey Dahmer anyone?? yuck..
Angela commented on Jun 23 11 at 12:11 pmI think they all are great except for the Oliva Push cake and the teen pregnancy. The sleeping baby is so cute and the feet on the baby bottom one is so realistic. Wow!
Nicole Becker commented on Jul 14 11 at 5:51 pmThe cake for Olivia is DISGUSTING!! Why would anyone make a cake like that???? WOW!!!!
TJ commented on Jul 14 11 at 10:01 pmIf these are shocking, you should check out the Cake Wrecks blog. There are plenty of horrible baby shower cakes there.
Sue commented on Jul 14 11 at 11:37 pmWhy is that the best cake?
Cassandra commented on Jul 15 11 at 12:33 amI think the one of the baby butt & feet are really cute! Lol I think I would so have to get that one! But the one “Push Olivia push” Thats just not right! Whom ever would get that sort of a cake for a baby shower or that sort of cake at all is just Nasty!
Karen commented on Jul 16 11 at 12:04 amWow those are some nice cakes….. Well not all of them but I don’t want to say how hideous some are
Betty commented on Aug 04 11 at 11:38 amI love the butterfly where did you finde them its cool i want it
Shanny commented on Aug 04 11 at 11:48 amI actually think the baby bottom is the best one, I absolutely love the belly one, I think the burger on should be on worst.
Shanny commented on Aug 04 11 at 11:50 amLast one is super disturbing, but I absolutely love the baby bum one, and the prego belly is too cute! I think burger one should be on worst
Cherrie Marion commented on Aug 12 11 at 11:53 pmThey are all pretty bad looking cakes to me, I would’nt buy any of them for my baby shower or anyone elses baby shower either….
Cathy commented on Aug 15 11 at 10:50 pmROTFLMAO…..I haven’t laughed that hard in years….the comments are just as d*amn funny as the cakes are…..
just me commented on Sep 15 11 at 1:00 pmI think the person who wrote this article has no sense of humor. I love the “bad” cakes as well (except the teenage “joke” – not funny).
lauren commented on Sep 27 11 at 10:41 amthe bad cakes are funniest
Lisa commented on Oct 09 11 at 10:30 pmWorst #1 GHETTO AS HELL!!!
Jonah commented on Oct 19 11 at 3:06 amI may be in the minority here, but “Congratulations on your teen pregnancy” and Oliva’s cake are my favorites. They both made me laugh out loud. I can’t deny that the Beatrix Potter one is very cool, but if it was a baby shower for my friends and not my family I would prefer a cake that made myself and my friends laugh, like Olivia’s cake, which is my favorite of all the cakes by far. Hopefully my guests would be able to appreciate it.
Maple commented on Oct 19 11 at 4:34 pmI’d have to disagree with you on #2 for best cakes. The Giving Tree just makes me thing that the baby is going to grow up to be a greedy inconsiderate bitch.
The baby’s bottom cake and the number 1 worst is pretty lulzy though.
Yum commented on Oct 25 11 at 3:47 ami wouldn’t mind a belly button slice of cake.
Yum commented on Oct 25 11 at 3:51 amWorst #1? More like Best #1!
A commented on Oct 30 11 at 9:13 ami misss my 3 babys were pregnancy and good memory
LOL commented on Oct 31 11 at 6:51 amSorry y’all I gotta add to the minority here. I LOVE the Olivia cake. SO. FUNNY. If someone served that for me at a baby shower I would be laughing so hard — and when you’re that pregnant you need a great laugh!!!
laylasmom commented on Nov 03 11 at 12:24 pmi had a babys bottom for my shower but it was unique and the cutest cake ive ever eaten……as for number one thats jus plain dumb! i would b embarrassed to show that at my shower
Julie commented on Mar 28 12 at 5:17 pmLet’s try this again:
I wouldn’t want the Olivia cake at my shower, but only because I’d probably laugh so hard I’d pee myself. Which would be embarassing. Hooray for preggo bladder!
