TikToker Rips Costco For Refusing To Decorate 2-Year-Old's Birthday Cake–So She Had 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:
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.
