Baby Shower Dessert Ideas

Why settle for cake and cookies when you can eat something more fun? No matter whether you’re baking at home or ordering for the event, check out these baby shower dessert ideas!

Dessert Cups

From cheesecake and shortcake to pudding and mousse, there are lots of options to choose from when making dessert cups. These delicious desserts are great if you want individual servings. Offer your favorite flavor or provide a variety of options for attendees to select from.

Cake Pops

Cake is a go-to choice for baby shower snacking but you can add a fun twist with cake pops! These sphere-shaped treats can be customized with color and sprinkles or upgraded to match the theme. If your shower is a gender reveal party, consider doing a combination of blue and pink colored pops.

Macarons

If you’re looking for an elegant and delicate dessert for your baby shower, try macarons! Macarons are perfect for spring and summer showers, especially for those with a tea party theme. You can even use a tiered tower to display like a cake or package them as favors for guests to take home.

Rice Krispies Treats

Rice Krispies treats are delicious and flexible to shape, allowing your creativity to take over! You can dip in chocolate or frosting and add sprinkles for extra oomph. Use popsicle sticks or skewers for easy handling.

Popcorn

Popcorn is usually thought of as savory but it can also be a sweet snack. Simply tint it the color of the party theme or try out fun flavors like red velvet, cookies & cream, s’mores and cake batter. Fill bags and tie off with ribbon or use bowls so attendees can scoop out.
