Woman amused as birthday cake ordered via Zomato arrives iced with ‘leave at security’
A woman shared how a cake ordered via Zomato for her birthday arrived with ‘leave at security’ iced on it.
A woman’s birthday celebration took an unexpected turn after a delivery note meant for a security guard ended up iced directly onto her cake.
The moment, captured on camera and shared on social media, has since gone viral, prompting laughter and disbelief across the internet.
A delivery instruction gone wrong
Taking to Instagram, the woman, identified as Nakshatra, shared a short clip showing the cake placed before her during a birthday gathering. In the video, she appears visibly stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter as those around her react to the unusual message.
Instead of a birthday greeting, the cake carried the words “leave at security”, a phrase commonly used as a delivery instruction for food orders in gated buildings. The message, meant for the delivery process, was mistakenly written on the cake itself.
Take a look here at the clip:
