    One of my best sellers at http://www.rattlecake.com is a Mickey Mouse diaper cake. We then send small Mickeys with the cake for the hostess to hand out as mementos of the shower.

    I think diaper cakes are some of the most unique baby shower favor ideas. I know most people who get our cakes are pleasantly surprised.
