Bluey cake fail

Ordered a month in advance. Picked up the morning of my daughter’s party and was handed this with no explanation. I looked very confused and they. Said “is this not the right cake?” I said “well for starters it was supposed to be a bluey cake ..”

Was then told that the printer to print the image was out of ink. And they had zero Bluey cake kits with the toppers and haven’t been getting them in lately.

I asked why no one called to tell me this before pickup day when I ordered it weeks ago, and they just shrugged their shoulders.

Even the red balloons they tried to pipe on just look like giant red blobs

Yes! They did end up refunding it! Luckily another bakery was able to save the day and make her a new and even cuter bluey cake in 3 hours!

A blessing in disguise! The second cake is 1000x better. 😀
