Singaporean Woman Dissatisfied With Cake From Carousell Baker
Online shopping is a practice that has grown common in the past few years. While convenient, the products we receive may sometimes fall far below our expectations.
This was the case recently when a woman ordered a cake from Carousell. It arrived looking different from what she expected, leaving her baffled.
Posting about her experience online after someone else complained about the vendor, she warned others not to approach the same seller.

However, the post has been taken down at press time.
Woman on Carousell orders cake with husky design
Posting to Facebook, the OP shared that she had ordered a S$45 cake with the design of a husky from Carousell.
The image on the cake was supposed to be an exact replica of one from her phone.
Unfortunately, it arrived looking rather different than what she had expected.

With the image of the canine not centred properly, and the husky looking rather misshapen, it’s easy to guess why.
“It was really disappointing since it was a birthday cake,” she added, stating that she had requested to leave feedback but the seller allegedly never responded to her.
The OP also claimed that there was a delay in the delivery of the cake. However, it would have been less of a concern if the cake “turned out acceptable,” she pointed out.
Baker slammed for quality of artwork
Her post has since gained quite a few comments, many slamming the seller for the quality of the cake.
The majority of users agreed that the OP had not gotten her money’s worth.
