Baby shower cake recipes are a huge part of the success of the dessert at the party. Statistics show that 25% of guests do not eat cake! While some of it may be due to dietary constraints, the rest may be because people just don’t like it. Why? A lot of it just doesn't taste that good. Too dry, to greasy, too sugary, etc. A good recipe with the best ingredients will surely break this chain.

Baby shower cake that tastes heavenly will have your guests asking for a 2nd piece, even if they are on a diet. At a recent shower we hosted for our dear friend (pregnant with her 4th!), the confection was 3 layers – each with a different type, filling and icing. I was hesitant to even have a piece, because it's not my favorite and I usually pass. The first piece was decadent. Dare I try another? But of course. The 2nd piece even better! A 3rd? There was plenty, why not? This kind of damage requires an extra 30 minutes on the treadmill…but boy, was it worth it. Wouldn’t you want all of your guests to have the same experience on your special day?

The key to good tasting baby shower cake recipes is top quality ingredients, i.e. real butter and cream. The trick is creating a dessert that looks fabulous AND tastes fabulous. Most professional bakers offer cakes in a variety of delicious fillings and flavors. They can also have different layers with different flavors - whether lemon with lemon mousse filling, chocolate with hazelnut cream filling or white chocolate with a filling of fresh strawberries and whipped cream.
