- Mom ordered a woodland-themed cake for the baby shower
- Received a blue cake with ‘nothing on it’
A mother was left scratching her head after receiving a very plain cake from a baker that was nothing like what she had ordered.
The woman ordered a ‘woodland creatures’-themed cake decorated with woodland animal leaves, acorns and flowers, for her baby shower.
However, she was dismayed to discover that she was given a turquoise blue cake with hardly any decorations, two ‘tropical’ palm fronds and a misplaced ‘Welcome Baby’ message in the middle.
The frustrated mum said the baker had sent her photos of other ‘perfect’ cottagecore cakes to gauge which style she wanted, so she was confused as to how they got it so wrong.
Hundreds online were shocked by the cake’s ‘epic’ ‘failure’ and encouraged the customer to ask the baker for his money back.
