If you have already mastered a Simple & Elegant and Custom Theme Diaper Cake, then these cupcakes will be very easy for you! There are several ways you can make a diaper cupcake, so many of the supplies are marked optional*. I will provide a link that will show you several examples.(link is at end of page)
LET'S GET STARTED!!!
1. GATHER SUPPLIES
Supplies you will need are:
- 10-12 diapers
- wide ribbon (around 1.5" or so)
- thin ribbon * (around .5" or so)
- curling ribbon
- flower buds*
- packing/shipping tape
- rubber bands
- hot glue gun
- ribbon cutting scissors
- tape cutting scissors (or other cutting device)
- baby supplies*
- topper (toy or stuffed animal)*
*optional
For more details and information on each supply see Supply Notes.
2. PREPARE DIAPERS
3. BUILD TIER
A diaper cupcake is basically a single tier cake of 10-12 diapers. All you need to do is create a circle of diapers (by standing them up as in previous tutorials, except without a cake board) and fill them in. In this example I used 8 to make the outside of the circle and the other 3 to fill the middle. Then tied with curling ribbon.
4. ADD RIBBON TO TIER
5. ADD CURLING RIBBON, TOPPER, FLOWER & MORE
At this point you can decorate as you please! You can add curling ribbon, flowers, toppers and baby items. In this example I have added a white bear, pink rose buds and curling ribbon.
