Who knew that a cake really can make or break a party? Seeing the instructions you made for the order on the final product has got to be infuriating upon delivery. I guess you got exactly what you ordered, though. Then, of course, there's the lazy misspelling (i.e. "congrations" instead of "congratulations"). However, upon further reflection, one has to wonder why we don't just say "congrations" in life. I mean, it sounds better, it's easier to spell, and who has the energy for all those excess syllables anyway? Just a thought. Maybe this cake maker was actually onto something there.

Despite all of these flawed baked goods, there is also the argument that if it tastes good, none of these mistakes should matter. At the end of the day, cake is not about the message. Cake is about the eating. So, in the spirit of Marie Antoinette, let us eat cake.
