Ribbons
Ribbons are essential decorations for a baby shower diaper cake because these are commonly used to tie together the diapers for each tier and to tie each tier together. In many cakes, a thin ribbon is used to tie each tier to one another while a ribbon about an inch or two wide is used to tie the diapers together.
