sheet cakes have come into their own and I'm happy also because I think the ratio of cake to frosting in a sheet cake to me is like just right about that see it gets a little problematic for me but I do love a sheet cake but am I hearing you correctly for you a birthday cake is a sheet cake I mean I like a sheet cake what is a birthday cake and these are existential questions well for you for you Jessica well if you you want to know what my favorite birthday cake is yeah

Well, it's not a sheet cake. The cake that I request for my birthday is a coconut cake, a yellow cake.

I mean, it's a shame you weren't born in 15th century Germany, you know? You could have the austere cake.

No, I think that's true. Like you should get to choose. I get to pick my birthday cake, coconut. You pick your death cake. And, you know, and that's part of like the joy of it is that you can put in this request and have the request met. And maybe you can do that on other days if you have kinder people in your life. But I feel like you get a guarantee to get your wish on your birthday, right?
