The fondant haphazardly crumpled up under the candle really adds insult to injury... Poor Eden...

Technically, it's not fondant, but edible paper that's made of mostly starches, sugars, and stabilizers. It tastes worse than fondant.

It's not even fondant and they still couldn't be bothered to make sure it's on straight? Shameful... 🙍‍♂️

Yeah, there's a whole cascade of failures here. At least the overall printing quality was decent.

Seriously, the piping work is awful and inconsistent. I'd ask for at least a partial refund.

The kid probably loved it but I really hope the parents didn't pay like $70 for this shit.

Back when my kids were little, I told my mom they were into Paw Patrol when she asked what they liked for Christmas. She called me from Target saying "I don't see Papa Troll stuff anywhere!"

The checkerboard pattern in a png should be transparent, but it's a fake png (jpeg probably) so the pattern was printed too.

Also a kind of Portal reference with their the cake is a lie thing
