What doe it say when you cut a piece out of it?

Can it say “Eat me”?

Careful what you wish for.

It’s hard to have your cake say “Happy Birthday!” and eat it too.

Like the dinner at the Restaurant at the end of the Universe where the Entree wanted to be eaten!

Would this be funnier if it were a patisserie or am I overthinking this?

How about one that sings, “You say it’s your birthday. It’s my birthday, too, yeah!”

Icing too much. What if Pam asks for a cake with a stripper to jump out of?

Reminds me of the cow (dish of the day) at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe.

I would have thought the pastry people would have done better market research on humans (especially Cliff) before opening the shop.

Just don’t scream when I slice you.

I prefer that my food not be sentient.

“Bite me”?

OK, beautiful, you ask a talking, walking, donut to get you a cake that says, “Happy Birthday” and when you get just that, you’re dissatisfied? Be more specific, next time.

I wonder if there are any bakeries that include a microchiped plate singing the “Happy Birthday to You” song? That could really make more sales.

This is cute and a little punny! :D haha!

“Or in Spanish?”

I foresee a hostile takeover when Cliff shows up.

Next panel would be: (Pam?) “OK, nevermind, you can sing Happy Birthday, right?” (Cake) “Right” next panel: (Pam?) “Great, just sing Happy Birthday” (Cake)“OK, but what happens after?”

Let me introduce you to the cake: Pam—Cake. Cake—Pam. (c.f. “Alice—Pudding. Pudding—Alice.”)

No relation to this guy? https://youtu.be/5HLy27bK-wU

Anthropomorphism creates such interesting and at times horrific situations.
