Bridal Shower Towel Cake
A bridal shower towel cake is made of an assortment of tiered towels, with gift items inserted into each layer. This unique gift is usually quite decorative, and often used as a centerpiece. If you plan to do this, keep your color scheme in mind. You could also sit it on a serving platter or tray for extra interest.
A bridal shower towel cake can be made in all colors. For a striking effect, choose your towel color, then use contrasting ribbon and trim. For an elegant look, use all one color for towels and trim, then insert your gifts. An extra special idea is to use monogrammed towels.
If you'd like to make your own, start with the following "main ingredients":
• 2 bath towels
• 2 hand towels
• 2 wash cloths
Then follow these steps:
1. Lay all items out flat. Fold twice lengthwise.
2. Roll bath towel tightly in a coil. Pin the second bath towel to the first, and continue the coil. This is the bottom layer.
3. Now roll first hand towel, tightly. Pin the second to the first, and continue rolling. This is your second layer.
4. Roll, pin and coil both wash cloths, for your top layer.
5. "cake decorations"...now the fun begins!
Choose some or all of the following:
• Ribbon
• Pearls by the yard
• Silk flowers
Depending on the type of bridal shower or theme, you can insert small items around the outside layers, into the towels. Some choices are:
• decorative colored or shaped soaps
• votive candles
• hand or body lotion
• set of measuring spoons
• flavored coffee or tea packets
• pot holder
*** Remember to secure items in the towel layers, or with pins. Never use glue.
