HE wanted to surprise pals with a stunning rose cake for his birthday celebrations – but what arrived left him mortified.
Planning a birthday is no joke – there’s invitations to send, food to arrange, decorations to sort out…
To make his little a little easier, the rising YouTube star, Robert Tolppi, decided to have a bakery make a cake – and he even found a stunning design to order.
In his mind, he would serve a red velvet cake with black roses.
But upon opening the delivered treat, Robert was mortified and quickly realised the major error he had made.
Rather than sending a snap of the cake he wanted, the YouTuber attached the wrong image by mistake – it was a close-up selfie of the bloke looking rather stern.

It appears that the bakery did not question Robert about wanting a cake that is a replica of his face and did not ask him if that’s what he truly wanted – because when he opened the box, he saw his own reflection.
Mortified and unsure what else to do, Robert decided to stick a few candles and go forward with the celebrations anyway.
”At least it was a red velvet cake,” he chuckled in the caption of the video uploaded on TikTok.
The unfortunate fail has since gone viral, racking up over a 741k views in just a few hours.
And it’s safe to say, social media users were in hysterics, with one writing: ”they must get some weird requests if they didn’t automatically question the picture lmao.”
Another laughed: ”Task failed successfully.”

Many also thought the face cake was, in fact, better than what he had originally wanted.
”the face cake is totally better. So it’s a happy accident.”
