Think about the time of year you will be hosting the baby shower. You may decide to plan the baby shower foods, recipes and ideas around the season. If the weather will be nice you may want to have the shower on a deck, patio or in a gazebo. The recipes you use and the foods you serve may be of a lighter fare than those you would choose for the winter.



The baby shower foods, recipes and ideas need not be difficult. If time is a consideration and you want to throw a baby shower that is nice but fairly easy to put together you can order a cake or decorated cookies, purchase some cute napkins, plates and cups and you will be ready to go.

For a baby shower that will take a little more time you can plan a more extensive menu and maybe serve a brunch or light lunch. Consider a brunch casserole, muffins and a fruit plate. Other baby shower foods, recipes and ideas for this type of shower could include handmade table favors and place cards.

If you want to go all out for the baby shower foods, recipes and ideas think about a salad and dessert bar or a table laden with all kinds of appetizers. Add a few scrumptious desserts, a gorgeous tablecloth and baby-themed centerpiece and you will have an amazing baby shower.

Baby shower foods, recipes and ideas can be simple or you can take them to the extreme.
