When you order a cake from a bakery, you expect it to look professional, right? Not for one customer, who got a bad surprise when this bakery kind of messed up her cake. It's botched enough to notice - but some people on the internet actually don't think it looks that bad.

Here's the situation, as told through the original Reddit post and subsequent updates on r/cakedecorating. Grab your popcorn, because it's a lot.
Basically, the OP ordered a special dessert for their mother, since, as they wrote, they aren't a cake decorator. But when they went to a bakery, they received…this. Take a peek at this cake because it's a little busted.
But the writing on the cake is less than legit. And uh…this cake is very lopsided? It's giving Leaning Tower of Pisa, right? Even if you made this for someone at home in your own kitchen, you'd probably get a little made fun of for how much it's leaning.
But OP was sympathetic to this bakery at first. After all, food places are short staffed, and leaving negative reviews can be harsh. But commenters let the OP know that something was off, and they were actually being too nice to the bakery.
Although this cake looks like it was assembled in ten minutes by a neophyte baker, the bakery was reportedly both rude and unapologetic about this birthday dud.
You can see in the new photos that the icing is piped on poorly on the bottom, and the sprinkles look tossed on at the last minute.
OP said they were contacted by others who had similar experiences - possibly because the place was being managed by teenagers.
This kind of customer service can really leave a bad taste in your mouth. But it seem like between allegations of not wearing masks, plus an alleged class action law suit, this bakery is dealing with way more than they ever bargained for. Check out this situation for yourself on the r/cakedecorating subreddit, where the OP left links to the entire saga in the comments.
