Gender Reveal Cake When You Don't Know Gender - Ideas
Decorating By Meridae Updated 4 Oct 2016 , 11:20pm by maybenot
Hey all, I was supposed to make a classic gender reveal cake for a baby shower on Sunday - only baby was shy at the scan today. So now I need to do a 'genderless' reveal cake - any ideas how I could handle this in a light, gently humorous way?
TIA

My first thought is making a cute little baby topper that is kneeling on the cake with it's knees pressed together and hands covering the private parts looking a bit shy and cheeky. Or even just one hand between the legs and the other with a finger on his mouth lime it's saying "shhh".
What was your original design for the cake? When is the cake due - is there a possibility for another scan before that?
That shy baby figure is a hilarious idea. What about a layer that has ? ?? in pink and blue (like the surprise inside letters, etc) or hollow out and fill the center with little plastic babies and bottles - like an inedible pinata-style.
Sorry that baby is uncooperative for his/her own party!

I think doing both blue and pink colors inside will be confusing, people will think a set of fraternal twins , one of each gender, are expected.
I would go with a more non-traditional design, make a "fortune cookie" cake, with the scroll inside saying something goofy, like Confucius says: you will have to wait to find out.
Or WHITE cake for no confusion/ twin expectations. No pink, no blue.....
