Cake Friday: Baby Reveal Trend

Social media is being bombarded these days with cute ways to announce special moments in ones life including engagements, baby announcements, and even gender revels. Working at a bakery we too are a part of this trend. Here at The Cake Boutique we get to share in these special moments when we make cakes, cake pops, and cupcakes to help in the announcements.  Some of my favorites are making gender revel items. Some couples bring us an envelope from their doctors so they too get to be surprised when they cut or bite into the center of their dessert, where as, others have a private moment first then share the surprise for their guests with a dessert. Sometimes we fill cakes with colored buttercream or other times we dye vanilla cake pink or blue to reveal the gender. One of my other favorite techniques is when we fill the center of the cake with pink or blue candies that spill out when the couple cuts into the cake. Not only can we do gender reveal cakes we can also create pink or blue stuffed cupcakes or cake pops with pink or blue cake! Here are just a few of my favorites that we have done!
