Frequently asked Questions
What brand of diaper do you use?
What size of diapers do you use?
- We use size 1 diapers. Because baby birth weights vary, we know that all babies will be or eventually wear size 1.
What is the weight range for size 1 diapers?

Do the cakes shipped match the image on the website?
-
Yes! Your selection is build identically to the photo shown. We never make product substitutions.
Can any of the Lil’ Baby Cakes be made with cloth diapers?
- No. Cloth diapers do not give us the flexibility to achieve the same designs as shown on the site. In the future, we will offer a small selection of cloth diapers cakes.
Do you do Custom Diaper Cakes?
- Regretfully, we are no longer able to offer custom diaper cake designs. Instead, we try to offer a wide selection of themes to choose from. We will change the color of the ribbons on our current offerings. All you have to do is put a note in the comment field that you would prefer a change of color or contact our office. For example, we will be happy to accommodate you if you would prefer lavender vs. pink ribbon on a cake.
Do I have to assemble anything upon receipt?
- No, your diaper cake is handmade and wrapped with tulle and ready for gift giving right out of the box.
Can I add a gift message to my order?
- Yes, there is a gift message box during checkout. Put your personal message and it will be placed on a gift card to be enclosed with your gift.
Do you enclose pricing with the cakes?
- No. Only a packing slip is provides showing the design you ordered.
Do you ship to hospitals?
- We discourage shipping to hospitals. The cakes are shipped in corrugated boxes and get delivered to the general mailroom with other packages. (Some mailrooms are even off site from the main hospital). The mailroom then has to sort the packages and deliver to the patient rooms. Because hospital stays are so short, the new family could be home before the mailroom can deliver your gift. Also, the new family has so much to worry about in taking their newborn home, it is wonderful to have a Lil’ Baby Cake delivered to their home and not have to transport from the hospital.
Are there any places you do not ship?
- We do not ship to Alaska or Hawaii.
Do you ship internationally?
- No we do not ship internationally. Many foreign countries charge a duty and it cannot be paid prior to shipment. Because many of our orders are gifts, the reality is that no one wants to pay to receive a gift. Therefore, we do not ship internationally.
