Diaper cakes are a great way to add an elegant touch with something that you know will be functional for the parents-to-be. This diaper cake tutorial will show you how to make one with Pampers Swaddlers diapers and other supplies found at Walmart.
How to make a baby shower diaper cake
- You will need 54 Pampers Swaddlers diapers in size 3, three rubber bands and a few scissors.
- Start by taking one of the diapers, rolling it up and securing it with one of the rubber bands.
- Repeat step 2 until you have used all 54 diapers (you should have two left). If you want to add some fun colors to your cake, now would be an appropriate time to do so (or not).
- Cut a piece of cardboard to fit inside the bottom of your container or box (ours was approximately 4″ x 6″). Make sure that this piece will fit tight enough so that there is no space between where your cake sits on top of it and where it ends at the bottom of your container or box—this way when someone lifts off their cake they won’t see any unseemly gaps!
The beauty of diaper cakes for baby girls is that it’s so easy to customize them. You can pick and choose the colors, patterns and little extras to include.

If you want something simple, just make a small cake with diapers and a few accessories. If you want something elaborate, use your imagination! Here are some ideas to get you started:
- Use any color scheme you like – pink or blue
- Add a matching blanket if you’d like (this would be great for a girl)
- Include a pacifier, rattle or other toy that matches the theme/colors of your cake
- Add bibs or burp cloths if they match
This adorable lemon-shaped diaper cake is perfect for a pretty baby girl shower.
If you want to make a diaper cake for your own baby girl, use this easy recipe. First, get yourself a diaper cake mold and yellow cake pan from the grocery store. Next cut the edges off of the yellow cake so that it’s flat on all sides. Next, put some frosting in the middle of your yellow cake and then stack some diapers around it before putting another layer of frosting on top of that section. Repeat this step until there are four levels total: one layer with diapers only at bottom (for bottom layer), two layers with diapers+frosting in middle sections (middle two layers), three layers with diapers+frosting+gumdrops on top (top most layer). Finally sprinkle pink flower sprinkles over all four sections until they’re completely covered in them!

Diaper cakes are a great way to add an elegant touch with something that you know will be functional for the parents-to-be. You can customize diaper cakes to match the baby’s room or your friend’s favorite colors. It’s also a great gift for any occasion, including baby showers, birthdays and other holidays!
For example, if your friend or family member loves elephants, get an elephant themed diaper cake for baby girls. Or if she has a favorite color, use that as the foundation of your design! There are also so many different styles and patterns to choose from when picking out the decorations and other elements that go into a diaper cake.
- Pick a theme. You can use any theme you want, but stay focused on the person you’re making the diaper cake for.

- Pick out all of your supplies. The supplies needed to make a diaper cake include diapers (54 Pampers Swaddlers diapers in size 3), ribbon/string/twine (1 roll), scissors (1 pair), glue gun with glue sticks (1), Styrofoam block(s) (4) and optional flowers or other embellishments
The diaper cake in this guide will be made using 54 Pampers Swaddlers diapers in size 3, three rubber bands and a few scissors. (You may want to double check what size diapers the parents-to-be plan on using.)
- To begin, you will need 54 Pampers Swaddlers diapers in size 3 (the ones we used were size 3).
- Next, you will need three rubber bands. You can use an elastic headband instead of a rubber band, but we found that the headbands tend to slip off easier than traditional rubber bands. We also tried using two types of diaper brands and found that they don’t matter as long as they are the same size as your original diapers.
Start by taking one of the diapers, rolling it up and securing it with one of the rubber bands. Repeat this process until you have 18 rolled diapers in total. (You can also use an elastic headband instead of a rubber band.)

Now that you know how to make a diaper cake, it’s time to start planning one for baby girls! As we mentioned earlier, there are so many different styles and patterns to choose from when picking out the decorations and other elements that go into a diaper cake. You can even get creative with your design by combining two or three different types of themes together if desired.
