Pregnancy Trend Alert: Gender Reveal Cakes!
| Mon, 09-17-2012 - 10:10am |
Finding out the sex of your baby from the ultrasound tech has become passe. In 2012, expectanting parents are discovering whether they're having a boy or girl in a sweeter and much more public way -– with a gender reveal cake. Here's how it works: Couples ask the ultrasound tech or OB to write down their baby’s gender and they seal the note in an envelope, which parents bring to a bakery. The cake-maker then prepares a confection that reveals nothing on the outside, but is filled with either pink or blue frosting. The first slice spills the secret!

Such a fun idea! Is anyone planning to do something similar?

This would be cute for a way to announce to OTHERS the gender if you don't think you could wait. If we weren't Team Green I would consider doing this.
A college friend of mine did this....though there was food coloring in the cake, not icing, but same idea. i thought it was creative and cute....but like the others said I'm not sure I'm patient enough. And my friend did it during a party with friends....I'm not sure I want to find out with a lot of other people around.
I'll have to talk to DH about it, but my guess is that we'll just wait and have the U/S tech tell us during the anatomy scan
This sounds like fun, but I'm not that patient. I'm already itching to know and I'm only 9 weeks!! 11 weeks to go before I find out.!!
