16. “Give a twirl for our new little girl!” – You can always try to persuade everyone to do a pirouette (although, it’s never worked at the parties I’ve been to).

Best Baby Shower Cake Messages For Boys

1. “It’s a Boy!” – Or is it? We don’t know until he’s born. Just kidding, but there have been surprises before.

2. “Frogs and snails and puppy dog tails; that’s what little boys are made of.” – This is similar to the sugar and spice cake message for girls. This just shows how boys are always up to mischief.

3. “Our Little Man” – Even though it’s a quite generic message, it’s timeless – boys are usually bosses of the house.

4. “Showers of joy, it’s a boy!” – There’s a bit of wordplay on “shower”, but it’s also a cute way to let everyone know it’s a baby boy.

5. “King of the Castle” – No room for fear, the king is here.

6. “Celebrate everyone, here comes our son!” – This is one of my favorite sayings, as the use of “son” instead of “boy” makes it more personal.

Best Gender Neutral Baby Shower Cake Messages

4. “Baby powder, cream, and oil, soon we’ll have someone to spoil!” – The first part is a nice way of avoiding the reality of dirty diapers. I have to admit though, it’s hard not to spoil those cute little beings.

6. “(#) days and counting!” – Simple, yet effective, especially for those who have a scheduled c-section, as they already know the exact delivery day.

12. “Little love, oh so sweet, we are all excited to meet!” – That’s true, one of the most exciting things is meeting the newest addition to the family.

13. “Peek-a-boo! We can’t wait to meet you!” – I guess peek-a-boo is here just for the rhyme, and that no one thinks they should play peek-a-boo with the future mom at the baby shower party.

2. “Double the joy, it’s a girl AND a boy!” – If you’re sure about the gender of both babies, this would be perfect for twins. Did you know boy-girl twins are the most common pairs? Girl-girl twins are second and boy-boy twins are the rarest pair.

3. “Due with Two” – Here’s a short saying for if you don’t have enough room on the cake.

Who Should Prepare The Baby Shower Party?

Baby shower messages on cake aside, let’s talk about the party itself for a moment.

A baby shower party is usually organized by a close relative or a friend of mamma.

It can be a sister, mother, mother-in-law, sister-in-law, or a close cousin, anyone who knows her very well.

Generally, the mom-to-be is a guest of honor at the shower party, not the organizer, even though there are moms who like to have control over everything, including the shower party.

If that’s the case, I strongly recommend you consult with her about every detail of the party, or else you will feel the power of an angry pregnant lady.

There are a lot of things to prepare for the party and if you’re not sure where to start, there are a lot of very useful baby shower ideas and tutorials on the Internet.

You can go anywhere from Pinterest to YouTube, there are hundreds of amazing ideas for a perfect baby shower party!

However, don’t forget about the most important part of the party – the cake. It was traditionally made by the one who organized the shower, but it’s not necessarily a rule.

If you’re not very good at making cakes, it would be better to hire a professional, or someone from the family who is an expert on baking cakes.

Baby Shower Favors – Yes Or No?

Baby shower favors have become a thing in the last few years, as the shower parties became larger and more lavish.

These are not obligatory, but it’s a nice way of thanking guests for coming and for the gifts they prepared.

It doesn’t have to be anything expensive, just a small trinket of gratitude.

It could be anything from scented candles, flower bags, sugar body scrubs, mini baby rattles, to cute baby bookmarks.

It’s not about the price, it’s about the value.

To Wrap Up

There’s a saying by Julia Child which perfectly describes the importance of having a cake at a party, “A party without the cake is just a meeting”.

A baby shower without the cake wouldn’t be nearly as fun and to some people, the cake is one of the reasons to RSVP (I hope it’s not their only reason though).

This treat deserves the most beautiful and colorful decorations which have to be done very precisely.

Writing the wording is where most people make mistakes, so if you’re not confident enough to do it, ask someone to help you or make a printable design.

Be careful about small details which can make a big difference. Something might seem easy to do now, but it can be easily forgotten.

Don’t forget to send invitations! If you’re the party organizer, make sure to prepare invitations that are related to the theme of the party (if it’s a theme-specific shower).

There’s always room for some games, so you can include some fun baby shower games!

If you don’t have any ideas, you can always make the baby shower version of Jeopardy.

The most important thing is to have fun!

Enjoy the party with the mom-to-be, celebrate the new life with the circle of people you love, and support the new mamma at the beginning of a new phase in her life.
