Baby Shower Cake Ideas

What could be more fun than creating a unique baby shower cake?

Here are some fun and easy ideas for baking baby shower cakes that are sure to be a hit with both the mother-to-be and her guests!

# 1) Carousel Cake: Exchange your plain cake separator with a carousel separator kit. The prancing ponies easily snap on to a regular kit to add some fun without any fuss.

# 2) Baby Blocks: Bake a rectangular or square cake and section it off into smaller squares and blocks.

Color each square a different color and pattern to make it look like a set of (maybe A-B-C?) blocks.

Or write a special message, some motherly advice, in each block. – That’s MY favorite idea!

What’s yours?

Magical Baby Shower Poems

“Poems are the words of our angels speaking, trying to get a word in edgewise”. That’s one of my favorite quips from my friend, Phillip Boulding of the string duo, Magical Strings. If you have arrived here, you may have seen my video where he recites a sonnet for his granddaughter, Rowan and plays the special lullaby that he wrote just for her.

Every child on the way or newborn should receive the love and beauty that Phillip puts into his work. If you haven’t seen it yet take a look at baby shower poems. It’s well worth the trip.

Phillip has recorded an album called Beneath The Moon that includes the lullaby Rowan’s Welcome and other original music composed for the birth of other granddaughters.

If you would be interested in obtaining copies of the video finale’, graphical copies of the poems or possibly even a custom poem and video for your special mother please take my survey. If enough people ask for these products, maybe I can twist Phillip’s arm to make something really special.

I’m glad you visited my blog.
