I wanted a stunning rose cake for my birthday but sent the wrong photo by mistake - I was mortified

HE wanted to surprise pals with a stunning rose cake for his birthday celebrations - but what arrived left him mortified.

Planning a birthday is no joke - there's invitations to send, food to arrange, decorations to sort out...

To make his little a little easier, the rising YouTube star, Robert Tolppi, decided to have a bakery make a cake - and he even found a stunning design to order.

In his mind, he would serve a red velvet cake with black roses.

But upon opening the delivered treat, Robert was mortified and quickly realised the major error he had made.

Rather than sending a snap of the cake he wanted, the YouTuber attached the wrong image by mistake - it was a close-up selfie of the bloke looking rather stern.

It appears that the bakery did not question Robert about wanting a cake that is a replica of his face and did not ask him if that's what he truly wanted - because when he opened the box, he saw his own reflection.

Mortified and unsure what else to do, Robert decided to stick a few candles and go forward with the celebrations anyway.

''At least it was a red velvet cake,'' he chuckled in the caption of the video uploaded on TikTok.

The unfortunate fail has since gone viral, racking up over a 741k views in just a few hours.
