Are you trying to think of a fun and original idea for a baby shower cake? Have you thought about making mini baby shower cakes? These are like regular cakes but much smaller and a lot more fun. They are great for a variety of reasons. Individualize Thats right we all love things with our own names on it and things made to our special likes and dislikes. Well, mini cakes are quick and easy to make and this will allow you time to individualize them. You can easily make three or four different cake mixes and from there make 5 to 10 mini cakes from each mix. This gives you an unlimited amount of variety. You can have a chocolate or a white cake with just about any type of frosting or flavor in the middle. How many times have you had to choke down a cake because you did not want to appear rude? As the guest you often dont have any choice in what the cake flavor is and you can end up having to eat something you dont even like. With mini cakes and the easy of baking them you can customize the cakes with a few easy changes and then offer your guests the exact cake they like. Use as Centerpieces Depending on the exact size and specifications of your baby shower mini cakes these can serve as wonderful centerpieces for the baby shower table decorations. Just think you get more bang for the buck this way. Your decorations and your cake all rolled into one! If you decorate each mini cake in a different way with different colored frosting and different decorations you can easily create a ton of stunning centerpieces. For example if your baby shower theme was Noahs Ark you could make 5 mini cakes for the centerpieces and then on each cake decorate different groups of animals that will go onto the ark. Just to carry the theme a little farther instead of doing the traditional Noahs ark theme of two of each animal by sex do two of each animal as a mother and baby. So on one cake at a table you might have a mother and baby Giraffe. Then at another table you might have a mother and baby elephant. Of course at the table where the guest of honor will be sitting you could tie in the theme by adding the ark into the decoration. People will love to walk around and look at these wonderful unique mini baby shower cakes! Table Decorations If you dont want to use theme as centerpieces because you have some other ideas for that already why not use them as a seat decoration. Simply make the cakes and then when decorating add each guests name at the bottom of the cake in a fun script type of writing. These will serve as wonderful table decoration and a seating name cards at the same time. People will be delighted to see their own name on the cute little mini cake. No Waste One of the best thing about mini cakes is you have a lot less left over. With big traditional wedding or baby shower cakes there is always a ton of left overs that you have to force upon everyone to take home. However, with cute little baby shower mini cakes you no longer have to worry about extras because each cake can be one serving! However these are so cute that you guests might want to take them home to keep for a while and savor the moment. Easy to Store Mini cakes are so small that they are incredibly easy to store. You can really use these to benefit your baby shower planning and timeline by making the cakes two to three weeks ahead of time and then simply stick them in the freezer. Take them out the day before and decorate. You have no taken out one of the last minute items that can cause a panic right before the baby shower. As you can see baby shower mini cakes can be a ton of fun for all the guests and can be sued in a variety of ways to save you a great deal of time.
