(Posted by: Live with no regrets on 2009-07-14 15:17:49)

I am starting to make diaper cakes as lots of you have probably already seen many of my other questions. I am wanting to make an option that is not reallly geared toward baby but more toward mom. I was thinking of having a burts bee upgrade option that will have burts bee items for mom sinc eeveryone give baby stuff but mom needs to be taken care of also. would you think that is a good idea and would sell. also can you think of any other mom cakes. and just to let you guys that gave me feedback on the first few cakes i made I sold the butterfly cake that the lady ordered and i sold it to her cheaper than i would normally charge ( i decided $75 woiuld be good. for that one ) but i sold it for $60 and she loved it and ended up giving me a $10 tip. so i made a $30 to $40 profit. and i threw in a small one also and she didnt know about it before hand. she is putting it in the window in the pharmacy she owns with papers that have my info on it for the week intil the shower. http:/ / viewmorepics.myspace.com/ index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage &friendID=487437818 &albumID=237096 &imageID=2629808 http:/ / viewmorepics.myspace.com/ index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage &friendID=487437818 &albumID=237096 &imageID=1250741 http:/ / viewmorepics.myspace.com/ index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage &friendID=487437818 &albumID=237096 &imageID=1249528 that funny you say ducks i just bought a small pack of diapers a yellow duck and ribbon that is yellow and orange to make a gender neutral one tonight lol

The butterfly cake is adorable!! $75 would have been worth it.

If you want to do a cake for the mom, maybe you could get stuff like what you would get at a spa or something! Or you could get good smelling body washes and lotions and maybe a loofah! IDK if this would work or not, but if the hubby/ boyfriend/ partner was the one ordering the diaper cake, then maybe they could request 'coupons' for something like a back massage or cooking and cleaning or something like that! I hope you get what I'm saying...I know that would make it a lot easier on the pregnant mom if she didn't feel like having to do those things once or twice out of the week! IDK, I'm just throwing suggestions out there!! Hope I helped! Oh yea, and you make beautiful diaper cakes...I wish I had known someone like you when I was pregnant! LOL...

Would the mom option also come with adult diapers? I'm kidding, I would like to see one that was perhaps made with supplies for mom to pamper herself. Things such as: Shower puff (might make a cute topper) Bubble bath scented candles nail file/ emery board Venus razer nice makeup brushes - things like that.
