Leave it to cake decorators to come up with the most original baby names. Baby Jason was named after his late grandfather, and his parents couldn’t have been happier about his arrival into the world.
That’s why it was so awkward when the nurse taking the baby’s name walked into the room, saw this cake, and wrote, “Janson.” This is one birth certificate we are dying to see!
Teddy 2? Shrek 2?
Is Teddy turning two? Is this a "Shrek 2" birthday cake? Did someone ask for a "Ted" (the ill-mannered animated teddy bear) cake? Though we do understand why someone could get Ted and Shrek confused, we want to understand the rationale behind this cake.
The confused mastermind behind this cake turned the grumpy ogre into a pretty friendly guy! Look at him; he's smiling at us!
Meta-Cake
Some bakeries ask you to send a picture of your desired cake, which is pretty considerate when you think of all the custom cake orders that get placed a day. What this family got was the picture they sent in printed ON a cake.
We call this a meta-birthday bash. Quick! Change the party theme to "Inception!"
Baby Shark
This shark cake inspiration on the left has it all - it is scary, realistic, and it those jaws are really look sharp! The shark on the right, on the other hand, well, he seems like the neighborhood shark everyone's friends with.
He just wants everyone to get along! He's smiling at the world, and the world is smiling back!
Just Happy Birthday
As we've seen, people love going all out on their birthday cake wishes. Cakes have become more than just something you put candles on and eat at a party; they have become a way to show your appreciation, your love, and are sometimes even considered a social status.
This guy wanted the most straightforward cake; all he wanted was for them to write, "Happy Birthday," a request we're guessing they hadn't gotten in a long time. Which may have been why there were a little confused...
