Baking a cake that looks like an iconic character most of the world knows and loves is not a good idea unless you are really great at baking. That said, a cake is still a cake, and you can't really be truly upset when there is cake around.

Redditor ehsan decided to buy their niece a nice Minnie Mouse cake for their birthday. This cake didn't just have an image of Minnie on it, the mouse's head protruded above the top layer.

Things did not go as planned. Poor Minnie.

In the comment section, Redditor ehsan states that the bakery where he ordered the cake did not advertise the cake on the left. Instead, ehsan brought them a photo he dug up on the internet, and they tried their very best to replicate it.

They tried, and honestly, better than I could do. But still, that imagine of monster cake Minnie will never ever leave my memory.
