[@caramelcopcat]

As someone in a family with 11 cousins under 18 at one point, I’ve never had any kids cry over getting a boring piece/one with less icing. Sure, kids were more excited for the pieces with the big decorative blotches, but cake is cake. There are also usually some older kids who don’t like icing. I think crying over it is very spoiled behavior, and I hope that doesn’t actually happen! If kids are gonna cry over anything, its usually about all the chocolate cupcakes being gone or vice versa lol

​@@Thompame Hard disagree. You're ingnoring that he specified what kind of cupcakes he wanted. 6 chocolate and 3 white cupcakes. That doesn't sound like someone who didn't think about this outside of the color. This sounds like someone who's daughter is celebrating with a limited amount of friends, likely ones close to her and she knows what they like and requested it. The only way he could order so specifically like this was is if he talked to her about this first and asked her what she wanted. Considering there are only 9 cupcakes for her 21st birthday, I get the feeling she isn't big on celebrating and therefore probably never had anything in mind in the first place. Sounds like she just knew her favorite color and told him to go with that. Also, he knows his daughter more than any of us do.
