Decorating the cake:
Start out by making a batch of cupcakes. If you're time-crunched, use a cake mix. Line pans with cupcake liners. After baking, cool. Place cupcakes in freezer for about an hour for easy frosting.
Make our basic white frosting. Add a drop or two of food coloring to match your baby shower color scheme. Pipe a contrasting colored flower in the center of the cupcake. Top with a baby shower themed candle or pick.
