Woman leaves nephew's birthday party in tears, after discovering sister-in-law baked her secret chocolate cake recipe, claiming she "robbed" her, family tells SIL to apologize for purposely stealing recipe: 'I had ruined something that belonged to her'

At what point does one stop treating 'secret' recipes like state secrets? No, Margaret, the world will not end if Eloise has your blueberry muffin recipe, no need to throw fists or report it on the Golden Grannies group chat! We can fully acknowledge the special tradition of passing down family recipes, but do sister-in-laws not count as family? We've heard sister-in-laws can sometimes hold a competitive streak, especially when it comes to 'No, my mommy is the best cook,' but is it truly worth ruining your nephew's birthday party over a little chocolate and cherry cake recipe?

Well, this sister-in-law says absolutely! After discovering her sister-in-law had baked her famous cake for her nephew's birthday, she throws a fit! She's been 'robbed' and this was obviously some type of way to steal all the spotlight, right? There are one hundred different cake flavors and she just had to choose the cake that you're praised for….How did she even find it? Watching hours of YouTube videos? Pathetic…at least according to her.

But this mother sees no problem with baking a ‘family recipe’ for her son's birthday. What was she supposed to do after politely asking for the recipe and being denied it? So she took matters into her own hands, and did some reverse engineering to ensure her son has a delicious birthday cake, what entitled person would be upset with that…? Her sister-in-law, that's who.
