2. Next up is a really cool etsy shop which specializes in created diaper cakes. I went to this site when I received the link and instantly loved the beautiful diaper cakes listed! What a cute business idea! Let's learn more!!

Hey Everyone!
I'm Jenny. Although scrapbooking is by far my favorite craft/hobby, I have recently started making miniature diaper cakes for sale in my new Etsy shop. I was looking for a unique and fun way to try and make a little extra cash for my family, and I remembered that I had always wanted to try my hand at creating diaper cakes for baby showers and for baby gifts. So, instead of making huge, expensive, product-loaded cakes, I came up with the idea to make these "mini" cakes, which are so much fun! Thus, I created an Etsy shop: "Patty Cakes by Jenny."
The mini cakes are PERFECT to sit on guest tables at a baby shower. They make great centerpieces! :) Centerpieces/decorations that are cute AND functional since the mother-to-be can take them home after the shower and use them whenever her new little one arrives.
Each cake is made with size 1 or size 2 Pampers diapers, and all diapers will be ready for use after the cake is taken apart. These Pampers are so soft, they almost look and feel like cloth diapers!
I have SEVERAL themes to choose from! (photos only show a couple) Custom cakes are available. Send me your colors and/or theme, and I can see what I can do. 2-tier and 3-tier cakes are available too (for a higher fee).
Each cake will be wrapped in cellophane or tulle before shipping in order to keep all items intact. I will combine shipping if you are ordering more than one. Feel free to ask any questions or send me a request! I will get back to you ASAP.
I hope you will stop by "Patty Cakes by Jenny." I am adding new themes constantly and would be happy to custom make according to your theme or colors. Thanks for taking a look!
