The baby shower cake is one of the highlights of the event. If you’ve been given the role of planning a shower, it’s important to design a unique cake that reflects the theme of the shower as well as the mom-to-be’s personality. Baby shower sayings for cakes always make a cute addition to proceedings and to the photo album.

First, think about the shower theme. If it is based on a storybook character or animal, you could incorporate this into the wording; simply replace some words in a popular proverb. If the shower is based on a season or holiday, you could try to link this into the saying.

Also, consider the mood of the affair. Do you want a quirky saying or something a little more sentimental? Should it be aimed at the mom-to-be or the baby? Once you have an idea in mind, browse cake stores, baby stores and online for a plethora of sayings to choose from.

Even if the mom-to-be decides to skip the cake and have another centerpiece instead… for example a diaper cake, you can still include a baby shower saying. Simply attach a beautiful card and tape it to the item.

Once you have chosen your saying, you need to think about the style of font you want. Should it be elegantly cursive or cute childlike writing? The color of icing should reflect the chosen color scheme or the gender of the baby.

A lovely saying will have your baby shower guests oohing and ahhing all afternoon; do your research and find the perfect words for your shower.
