If you're going to make a birthday cake for your partner -- even if said partner doesn't want anything for their birthday -- then you might as well get some internet points for it.

And if there's one surefire way to get internet points, it's with some variation of the surprised Pikachu meme.

On Tuesday, Reddit user u/GeekyKirby shared the following post in the r/pics sub:

The 70,000+ upvotes on that picture are surely proof that there are few things more glorious than memes in cake form.

Other Redditors, meanwhile, had different suggestions for the caption:

Ah, surprised Pikachu. You're truly the gift that keeps on giving.
