Baby Sprinkle Ideas for a Second Baby!
Baby Shower: DIY Cupcake Bar and Baby Sprinkle. I love the idea of a Baby Sprinkle! Especially if the Baby Sprinkle has ACTUAL Sprinkles! This baby shower is a fun and colorful baby sprinkle that is as much fun for mom as it is adorable.

So it used to be the case that once you had a baby…showers were no more. (No I am not talking about ACTUAL showers, although some days with a new baby those are hard to manage too!
I mean Baby Showers…)
That is not the case anymore.
I really love the idea of a Baby Sprinkle, or small shower for a non-first time mommy. A little way to say you care usually minus the gifts:)
I will always show up with a pack of diapers though…I don’t care how many kids you have, you ALWAYS need diapers!
With gifts, without gifts…I say, go for it and celebrate your little bundle of joy, because they are definitely worth celebrating!! You know that’s right!

Gorgeous, right? I love the colors! So bright and cheery…and oh so yummy looking. Somebody bring me a cupcake, stat!
How to set up a Cupcake Themed Sprinkle Bar:
Having a fun cupcake decorating bay shower is a cute way to celebrate a baby. Not only is it a great play on words theme (check out these clever baby shower themes too), but delicious cupcakes are ALWAYS a great idea!
What you need:
- Cupcakes
- Frosting
- Filling
- Sprinkles
- Piping Bags
- Cupcake Punch
Setting up a cupcake bar is actually pretty simple. You will want to start with your basic cupcakes. I would recommend at least two flavors (chocolate and classic white or yellow cake), but you can also get creative and make flavored cupcakes or add various colors to the mix.
You will want to have a few cupcake punches available to pull out the center of the cupcake. This then means cupcakes can be filled with creams or jellies or even candies. This is a great place to let some creativity shine.
Pick a variety of fillers for your guests to play with and explore.
Icing bottles make a great way to fill cupcakes with your yummy fillings without making a big mess! More options will create a better cupcake bar, so don’t be shy with the flavors!
You can also jazz up plain bottles and containers with cute washi tape wrapped around edges.
You can also save time by grabbing some icing pouches in various colors. These take less set up and just get thrown away after the party, which of course makes cleanup nice.
The coolest thing about this idea, is that you only have to do half the work!!! Bake the cupcakes and then let people frost them on their own! Winning!!
These punch glasses are given a little pizzazz by dipping the edge into white frosting and then into sprinkles. This is a super easy and totally adorable way to jazz up your drinks.
Looking for fun and easy favors? Send home a cute sugar cookie or candy in little paper bags with fun tags.

I love how this involves food you would generally eat at parties after the baby has arrived. Get used to it cause you won’t be eating adult food anytime soon.
The sprinkles look so cute. I have my daughters shower to plan and I need to use sprinkles.
They are fab and look so cute too perfect for events too.
What a fun color palette! All of the treats look delicious.
This is so cute! I love the decoration. Everything looks so yummy, I’d love a cupcake! Lol

Did you have any themed games at this sprinkle? I love the cupcake bar idea and will actually be accompanying it with a salad bar for some more substantial food :)- Sprinkle your cupcake…sprinkle your salad! Glad you pointed out fillings–I hadn’t thought about fillings. Nice!
