We’ve all heard the term “Bun in the Oven” when referring to a pregnancy. It’s a cute way to refer to the bundle of joy on the way. It also makes a delicious theme for a baby shower! These Bun in the Oven Baby Shower ideas are very easy to put together and it’s a hit with guests of all ages and gender.

Bun In The Oven Baby Shower – Decorations:

The great thing about decorating for a Bun in the Oven theme is that all the decorations you need are already in your kitchen! Instead of placing flowers in a vase, use wire whisks, wooden spoons and a rolling pin. Instead of a paper banner, lay a cute tea towel in the middle of the table. Fancy serving trays are always great for displaying baking but for a Bun In The Oven theme you could even just use baking cooling racks or cookie trays. If you have a chalkboard at home, you could use this to make a menu sign for the party.

Bun In The Oven Baby Shower – Food:

You don’t have to be a baker to put together a delicious buffet for the party. You’ll have a large variety of baking to choose from at your local grocery store or farmer’s market. Some food ideas include:

  • cookies
  • cinnamon buns
  • buns or scones with jam
  • mini donuts
  • cupcakes
  • strudel
  • danishes
  • tarts
  • pie
  • banana (or other fruit) bread
  • brownies
  • cake
  • squares
  • cream puffs

Drooling yet? I know I am!

Activities for this party theme can be as simple as a dessert tasting with a large buffet of treats.

If you have a group that loves to bake & cook, you could host a little cooking party where all of the guests help prepare food for the parents-to-be’s freezer. This is a gift they are sure to appreciate after the baby is born!

      It all looks delicious, doesn’t it? We did a huge shopping trip to the Farmer’s Market for all of these goodies.
