Baby showers are a great excuse to spend some time with your loved ones before the baby arrives and steals all of the attention.
Everyone will buy thoughtful gifts for the baby which will almost certainly cross a bunch of things off your “to buy” list.
All of your friends and family will gather around to make a fuss of you and spend ages telling you what an amazing mother you’re going to be.
There will be cringe-inducing baby shower games, plenty of balloons, and a delicious and adorable cake.
Unless, of course, you have cruel friends and end up with one of the below culinary delights.
What do you think of these baby shower cakes?
10 Awkward Baby Shower Cakes
#1: The (Very) Personalised Cake
There’s no need to wonder what you’ll look like while giving birth, because you’ll know ahead of time with this helpful cake. You’ll also know what your boobies are going to look like a few days after giving birth too.
#2: The Lip Service Cake
To say this cake is graphic would be a massive understatement. Get ready to introduce your friends and family to the finer details of your vulva. Good luck handing out slices of this cake.
#3: The Sphincter Cake
Your upcoming birth is the perfect excuse to invite all of your friends and family over to eat a chocolate replica of your sphincter. Would you like a piece from the top, or from the bottom? Haha — see what I did there?
#4: The Heartfelt Message Cake
Sometimes it’s hard to find the words you want to say, and other times it’s so easy you can ice them on a cake. Time to reevaluate your support group perhaps?
#5: The “Just Been Born” Baby Cake
Which baby shower guest is going to be brave enough to cut into this newborn baby? And, more importantly,, who’s going to eat his face? I think I’ll pass.
#6: The Terrifying Jam Cake
Just a little something to bear in mind, if you’ve used jam to create blood as decoration for the cake, it’s probably not an appropriate cake for a baby shower.
#7: The C-Section Cake
Well, if you’re going to start making cake models of babies coming out of vaginas, it was only a matter of time before c-section cakes became a thing. However, this cake is what nightmares are made of. What lovely friends.
#8: The Congratulations Cookie
If you’re not that into cake you don’t need to miss out. Cookies make a pretty good base too, as you can see.
#9: The “This Is How Big A Baby’s Head Is” Cake
Remember at your antenatal class when the leader showed you exactly how big 10cm dilated was? How it made you clamp your legs so tightly shut that you almost wet yourself? Yeah, well this is that in cake form. Hey, at least there’s chocolate sprinkles to take the edge off.
#10: The “What If It’s An Alien?” Cake
This has to be one of the best — erm, worst. What pregnant woman doesn’t secretly worry that one day, Alien will come bursting out of her bump?! Eat your fears.
