Guess The Candy Bar
Introduction
Baby showers in the U.S. are full of laughter, stories, and of course, games. They break the ice, get people talking, and turn a quiet afternoon into a memory-making event. If you want a baby shower game that’s equal parts gross and hilarious, Guess the Candy Bar is the one that never fails. It’s weird, sweet, budget-friendly, and unforgettable.
Guests have to guess which candy bar is melted inside a diaper. Candy bars like Snickers, Milky Way, or Hershey’s are melted and placed in diapers. Players look, smell, and maybe touch the diapers to figure out which candy bar is inside. The reactions and guesses are hilarious and chaotic.
What You’ll Need
- Around 6-10 disposable diapers (any brand works no need to get fancy).
- 6-10 candy bars think Snickers, Twix, Kit Kat, Milky Way, Reese’s… basically whatever makes you happy.
- A few microwave-safe bowls or plates for melting the chocolatey goodness.
- Sticky notes or labels to number each diaper.
- A handful of pens or pencils for guests.
- Guessing sheets print some cute ones or just jot them up yourself.
- A microwave (because cold candy bars don’t melt themselves).
- And yes, a trash bag you’ll thank yourself later when cleanup time comes.
How to Play
- Prep the Diapers Lay out your diapers and label them 1 through 10. Cut each candy bar into small pieces and pop them into separate bowls. Microwave each one for about 15–30 seconds just enough to melt them into gooey perfection. Scoop each into a diaper, close it up, and you’re ready.
- Set Up Once the diapers are numbered, set them out on a table or tray. Pass around pens and guessing sheets, and let guests know what’s up each diaper’s filled with a mystery candy bar, and their job is to figure it out (no taste-testing required… unless they really want to).
- Play Time You can either pass the diapers around or have guests walk the table. Let them look, smell, and (if they’re daring) touch. Someone always ends up sniffing dramatically; someone else will gag and laugh at the same time. That’s the fun.
- Reveal the Answers After everyone’s done guessing, go ahead and open each diaper to show what’s inside. Read the answers out loud it’s usually followed by a lot of laughter and at least one “I knew it!” Whoever got the most right wins a prize!
