11 Creepiest Baby Shower Cakes…EVER! (Photos)
Totally Morbid: Cutting the Baby Cake
At my baby shower we had a standard sheet cake. I think there may have been some draped fondant involved but it was simple, sweet and delicious. But some? When they are throwing a baby shower they don’t go for the basic, they take the traditional baby shower cake to a whole ‘nother level. They take it to a place of silly, kooky, crazy and down right creepy.
We’re talking cakes formed into a pregnant belly, depictions of childbirth and yes, life-sized representations of the babies themselves. The oddest part of this new-fangled trend? The cutting and actual eating of said cake. It’s like some cannibalistic / sacrificial ritual from the cutting of the baby cake’s neck (see right) to the plunging a knife into the pregnant belly cake. So, so creepy.
Check out this collection of the twelve creepiest baby shower cakes EVER. What do you think? Do these cakes cross a line or are they cute?

Ros commented on Jun 30 11 at 2:49 pmI’m sorry but that was just too much!
Karen commented on Jul 01 11 at 1:03 amNoooooooo! this is just wrong! Those are too disgusting to eat, and some things should never be shown in public even in jest.
Adriana commented on Jul 20 11 at 5:38 pmThe only one of those cakes I could make or eat would be the pampers cake. The rest that is just all wrong!
meagan commented on Jul 20 11 at 5:41 pmthat is gross! wouldnt even consider eating that cake!
meagan commented on Jul 20 11 at 5:44 pmeven though i have to admit the baby bum cake is cute
heather commented on Jul 20 11 at 6:48 pmI like the baby bum cake and the diaper cake. They’re cute!
Victoria Lewis commented on Jul 21 11 at 7:22 amI think they are funny the only thing I dont like is the “so you have ruined your life”.
Jennifer Miller commented on Jul 21 11 at 2:01 pmActually, the only one I do like is the “So you have ruined your life” Marge Simpson cake.. If your “Baby” is now a teenager then you’ll understand why I like this one..lol
Nikki commented on Aug 05 11 at 5:40 pmI love (and did I say love) cake, especially with butter-cream icing but I could not eat those cakes. BTW I would not eat a cake made to look like boobs are any other body part. You can have my piece if you dare. hehehehe!
Shanny commented on Aug 05 11 at 6:38 pmI think the pampers diapers one is cute but the full baby ones are creepy and so is that belly one that shows the baby in it
Mary Rivera commented on Aug 05 11 at 7:18 pmI find it very distrubing and very sick they made cakes out of babies and mother’s giving birth to them that’s way too much information for me and anybody to know. don’t need the mental picture here.
Kristie graves commented on Aug 05 11 at 8:22 pmI do not agree with a couple of theses cakes the one where the baby is laying on its stomach and and the person is cutting into its neck and the so you have ruined you life cake because a child no matter the age wheather it be a teenager or a new born is a gift!! Some people cant bare children and would give anything to birth a child but cant.. And the other one where the wfemales are giving birth are just way to much I mean yes its a part of life but who wants to see that on a cake.. Now the others ones with the babies are cute but they should just be for looks I wouldnt cut into them!! only one I would cut into would be the pampers cake! #JUST SAYING
Babybindle commented on Aug 08 11 at 10:02 amOh my gosh..that is just disturbing.
kathy higgins commented on Aug 26 11 at 4:43 pmdisgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and disturbing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! just plain wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jennifer commented on Sep 23 11 at 9:03 amI certainly hope some of these are fakes! As for the lifelike babies, they’re cute, but cutting into them and eating them. . . THAT would be creepy. I found the Pampers one slightly humorous.
Kimjks commented on Sep 24 11 at 8:24 pmThe Pampers cake is kinda funny,The others are just a little gross.
Alicia commented on Sep 25 11 at 11:45 pmHoly crap people..the cakes are all meant to be jokes..its not like theyre cutting up real freaking babies..theyre funny..so get over it
Erin commented on Sep 26 11 at 4:07 pmI see how some people would find it funny, but honestly I think the birth ones are plain classless. How embarassing if you’re the mother-to-be and you get to your beautiful shower and see THAT on the table of honor.
Karen commented on Sep 26 11 at 4:34 pmSo, its quite possible the new mom down the street has a head in her freezer but don’t call the cops just yet….
Hannibal Lecter commented on Sep 26 11 at 8:11 pmThere is absolutely nothing wrong with this.
Chuckles commented on Sep 27 11 at 12:04 pmThis is fracked up.
Ladybug commented on Sep 28 11 at 9:07 amHello ladies……..although some of the cakes are a little disturbing, it is JUST CAKE!!!!!!
Word commented on Oct 08 11 at 4:46 pm“You’ve ruined your life” with Marge Simpson. Now that one is not bad. It’s just a joke, even though there is truth to the joke whether mothers admit it or not. The rest are in horrible taste!
Baileys commented on Oct 14 11 at 6:07 pmSick, I showed this to my wife and she concurred. Some were beautifully made but the subject manner was much to be desired.
Deanna commented on Oct 15 11 at 9:54 pmI feel sorry for the baby to be, if the parents are honoring their new arrival in this way think of the rest of their life. Glad I have never met parents with such low standards. If you love them then show them the beauty in life and this is not it.
Jamie commented on Oct 21 11 at 7:07 pmThat is so tasteless! It’s bad enough that it seems like you’re cutting up babies and cannibalizing them. Yet having a decoration of a woman in childbirth – eww!!!! Those “litter box” cakes that have tootsie rolls representing cat poop are more tasteful than these. Got to admit though, the Marge Simpson one was funny – I remember the episode
Mark Forror commented on Oct 24 11 at 5:09 pmOh, that is freaking disturbing on so many levels! No, no no no no!
susan commented on Oct 30 11 at 3:56 pmwhat the hell kind of people would make a cake like that let alone eat one???
Candace commented on Dec 15 11 at 1:53 pmThe baby bum and the diaper cake are fine…but the others….couldn’t do it.
Lauren commented on Dec 15 11 at 1:57 pmThis is the stupidest cake in the world I am very pissed this is ridiculous I just lost my apatite and that should be deleted of the Internet
Stephanie commented on Dec 15 11 at 2:48 pmUh, yeah the cakes aren’t that bad, forgive some people for trying to be creative.
Although I will say the So you have ruined your life cake is just messed up, that is what is wrong with society these days. A baby is a blessing. People who order that cake are just better putting “So you have ruined this little miracles life.”
And the birthing cakes are a bit much for me, I understand that the whole process is beautiful and wonderful, but not all if it looks as beautiful as it should.
Crystal commented on Dec 15 11 at 3:01 pmI really liked the Pampers cake and the baby bum cake. I thought they were super cute ideas. Yes some of them were really gross! Especially the one where it looks like the women are giving birth. YUCK!!!!!!
Rebecca McNicholas commented on Dec 15 11 at 3:53 pmThis is so disgusting. Who in their right mind would order one of these cakes, much less for a baby shower?????
Stacy commented on Dec 15 11 at 4:00 pmSo, the “baby bum cake” ,” A slice of diaper Cake” and the “Pretty Pregnant Baby cake” those were all sweet, The rest of them were NAAAAAAAAAAASTY, and the “ruined your life cake” Jeez I hope you don’t show that one to the kid when they get older. What the hell is wrong with people? So many families are unable to even concieve children and someone had the nerve to not only make that cake but serve it at a baby shower… Classy..
nelly poo commented on Dec 15 11 at 5:52 pmit’s just cake
Danielle commented on Dec 19 11 at 10:03 amTHEY ARE ALL SICK MOTHERFUCKERS WHO IN THERE RIGHT MIND WOULD “EVEN” WANT THAT AT THERE SHOWER LET A LONE A CAKE OF IT THEN EATING IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW,,,,, FREAKS
Lisaz commented on Dec 19 11 at 11:10 amOhhhh calm down. They are cakes. SO silly to make a big deal about this. They were done out of love and excitement at the arrival of a new baby. Although they may be creepy, there were nothing but good intentions in the planning.
Mac commented on Dec 19 11 at 11:20 amI hope that some of you don’t raise your kids to be as judgmental as you. These are cakes people, just cakes! If you don’t like the cake, don’t get it, or don’t eat it if you happen to be at a party where one is served. Obviously there are some who do want these cakes, and who cares if they do, it’s their baby shower! Get over yourselves already!
CandyGillispie commented on Dec 19 11 at 4:51 pmthis would be to creepy of a cake to cut into.
mikey conrady commented on Dec 19 11 at 6:31 pmu poeple are so werid if you thin a baby cake is creepe it isn’t a real baby it is just a fack one and stop doing this and that everybody is about had it with that and too let you know girls we are throw forever! :D <3
Amanda commented on Feb 20 12 at 11:20 amThe pampers one is cute!
Nadine commented on Mar 15 12 at 1:55 pmPretty Pregnant Baby Cake is not a bad baby shower cake, it was my first choice but went with something cheaper!….
mandi commented on Apr 17 12 at 2:56 pmI have made the belly cake and the baby bum cake! They are adorable, and my fave by far to make!! Its cake people relax
Amber commented on May 05 12 at 4:24 pmI like the Pampers cake. If I could decorate cakes, I would make that one, maybe even have some creamy filling in them! :) And if no one else would eat it, more for me! lol
