Norma said: The first time I made this cake was for my friend. Everyone loved the cake. They cut the bottom part and she took the baby home because they thought it was too cute to be cut.

Sleeping baby-cake instructions
by: Mad Batter Bakery

I'm glad that you like this cake; it is one of my favorites, too. I layered two sheets of cake for the bed. I covered the cake with butter cream and then layered on top an oversized rectangular piece of fondant to make it look like the blanket. For the baby's head I made a ball of cake and covered it with beige fondant. I used the hat to cover the area where the fondant merged. For the body I carved an oval-shape cake about double the size of the head and I covered it with beige fondant. To make the blanket, I embossed the fondant first and then cut small squares in blue and green and I layered them, alternating colors, on top of a piece of white fondant (very thin). Then working quickly, I put the blanket on top of the baby and lifted some areas to give it some movement. If you have any question please email me at themadbatterbakery@yahoo.com

Sleeping baby shower cake
by: blulady

I would absolutely love to attempt to make this cake for my daughter's first baby [my first grandchild]. This is so adorable. I love the creativity as well as the simplicity. If you could send me any directions, I would be more than appreciative. I don't want an 'ordinary' cake for her--I want something amazing and this certainly fits the bill. Thanks for any help!
