• A twin baby shower cake doesn't have to mean twice the work. While you can make two separate cakes, there are several cute ideas to decorate a single cake with a twin theme. The specific baby shower theme plays a role in the cake selection. Also consider the size of the guest list when planning the twin baby shower cake.
  
  

Peas in a Pod

• A cake shaped like a pea pod is a common option for twin showers. Two smiling peas inside the pod represent the two bundles of joy. If you're making your own pea pod cake, there are different options for creating the design. A sheet cake cut into the shape of a pea pod is one idea. You can also use icing to draw the pea pod and peas on top of a plain sheet cake. A professional bakery is likely to have experience in creating pea pod cakes for twins if you want to order a cake. The pea pod theme works well for all of the shower decorations in addition to the twin cake.
  
  

Baby Face Cakes

• Round cakes make easy baby face shower cakes. In the case of twins, simply make two baby face cakes. If the mom-to-be knows the gender of the babies, either pink or blue accents finish off the cake decorations. A pink hair bow at the top or a blue bow tie at the bottom of the face works well. If the genders are unknown, yellow and green accents are an option. Either icing or fondant works well to create the facial features of the baby face cakes. A real pacifier pressed into each cake adds a final detail. Because of their general nature, the baby face cakes go well with nearly any twin baby shower theme.
  
  

Booties

• Baby booties are another easy option for decoration a twin shower cake. Professional cake decorators often make edible baby booties out of fondant. Two pairs of new baby booties from the store are another option if you're making the cake yourself. The booties look cute on top of an iced sheet cake or a tiered cake with other decorations. A piece of a cardboard cut to the shape of the booties protects them from the icing so the mom-to-be can use them on the babies later.
  
  

Noah's Ark

• A Noah's Ark theme and cake is a natural option for a twin shower, especially if the family is particularly religious. The pairs of animals reflect the two babies due to arrive. A sheet cake works well for the Noah's Ark cake. You can either cut the cake in the shape of the ark or draw the ark in icing on top of the cake. Add pairs of animals on the cake to round out the decoration.
