Ordering food through delivery apps can sometimes be a type of adventure. There can be unforeseen obstacles, ups and downs and unexpected results once the order arrives. Among the latest incidents going viral involves a birthday cake ordered with an extra topper bearing words that were not wishes. Many people online have found the mistake too funny to resist being amused by it. In an Instagram reel, a woman explains that she had recently placed an order for a birthday cake for her brother via Zomato. In the instructions box, she asked the establishment to write "Happy Birthday Himanshu" on the cake.

She also unticked the box that read, "Don't send cutlery with this order," as she wanted them to do so. When the order arrived, she was shocked to find that the cake had two pieces of chocolate toppers on it. On one of them, "Happy Birthday Birthday Himanshu" was written with icing. On the other was written "Send Cutlery". The woman has called out Zomato for the mistake. In the caption, she joked, "Thanks @zomato for the perfect order! We absolutely loved the extra efforts!" Take a look at the complete reel below.

"How is this Zomato's fault? Ask the restaurant."
"Sending Happy belated birthday wishes to Mr. Cutlery!"
"Extra chocolate so don't cry."
"I ordered tea and unticked the option. They sent fork and spoon with the tea and not the cups."
"I'm sorry for what happened with you. But bro, this is funny."
"From now on call your brother "Send Cutlery" & see his reaction"
"Chocolate bar on which "send cutlery" is written can be used as spoon too."
