This is a couple of months old now. I had intended to post this in October but... well I just forgot.
The background story is as follows. A man orders a cake for his departing colleague. Over the phone he requests that the message should read: "Best Wishes Suzanne" and underneath that, "We will miss you". The cake shop proprietor not only included the instruction but misspelt it.
On the bright side, that's a bit of extra icing for free.

Awesome!
This is really funny. I even like the part where you describe their spelling error with the word "misspelt."
There's nothing wrong with the word 'misspelt', Paul. Look .
Well, crap ! I had to look up 'misspelt' to see if is was misspelled. Be thankful I am not a cake decorator. HA !
