TikToker Rips Costco For Refusing To Decorate 2-Year-Old's Birthday Cake–So She Had To Do It Herself

TikToker @Katelanterman blasts Costco for neglecting to decorate her 2-year-old son Teddy's Sesame Street birthday cake and left the confection completely blank with spare tubes of icing to do it herself.

Birthday parties can be a lot of work—especially when the party is for a young child.

This was the issue TikToker Katelynn Ross—@katelanterman—was addressing when she decided to let Costco take care of the cake.


Unfortunately, things didn't quite go to plan.

You can see Ross' video of their predicament here:

@katelanterman

#Costcofail Without explanation, Costco didnt decorate my son’s birthday cake so I had to do it at 9pm the night before his party. #nailedit BUT SERIOUSLY, you thought leaving it blank was a good idea??? Do the best you can offer and thats my problem after, but them leaving it blank was a horribly petty plan. I normally LOVE Costco, we still spent bought all of our party food there tonight because that was my plan and I didnt need the added stress of changing plans over this. I’ll still shop there, but i will NEVER order a custom cake again #cakefail And i hate my writing on it but at least its something

People congratulated her on managing to make a pretty cake all on her own.

Others were outraged on her behalf.

But then the plot thickened.

It turns out, it's a fairly widely known fact among Costco members that their cakes only come in pre-designed options and will be given as blank if one of these options isn't checked on the order sheet.

Then a decorator chimed in with the usual policy, which is to call the customer.

It turned out the TikToker had received a phone call earlier that day.

Someone summed up the general sentiment in the comments.

The finished cake looks great.

The 2-year-old probably couldn't tell whether it was professionally decorated or not.

'New York Times' Reporter Fires Back After Trump Calls His Iran War Reporting 'Treason' During Air Force One Melt Down

New York Times journalist David Sanger affirmed that "reporting is not treason" after President Donald Trump accused him of committing "treason" by reporting on his war with Iran during a meltdown aboard Air Force One.

During Trump's flight back from China, Sanger, the White House and national security correspondent for the Times, pressed Trump on the rationale for continuing the bombing campaign, asking what purpose another round of strikes would serve given that “38 days” of bombing had failed to produce political change in Iran.

Clip Of MAGA Speaker At Prayer Event Claiming God 'Raised Up' Trump To Build His Ballroom Is Peak MAGA

MAGA author and radio host Eric Metaxas was criticized after claiming that God "raised up" President Donald Trump after two centuries so he could build his new White House ballroom.
