Somebody needs to grow up and realize they don't get their way just because they have a temper tantrum.

Weird.
Supermarkets around here have a binder full of specialty cakes, everything from holiday cakes to Disney cakes to Barbie cakes to New York Yankees cakes. The ladies in the bakery department do a fine job most of the time, but the cakes never end up looking exactly like the ones showcased in the binder.
You're talking about a group of working class people making $12/hour to work at the local supermarket. They do a good job but they're not the "Cake Boss" guy. This parent needs her expectations adjusted back to reality.

Woman needs to do more than adjust her expectations, she needs to just buy a box of cake mix and a jar of frosting plus candles and call that that.

I'm sure I can imagine what her damn seven-year-old does when things don't go his/her way. Mom just modeled it for everyone to see.

"I rented this firehouse FOR YOU. I DID ALL THIS STUFF SO YOU WOULD HAVE A GREAT PARTY. GODAMNIT, YOU ARE GOING TO SLIDE DOWN THAT POLE AND YOU ARE GOING TO LIKE IT!"
Sounds to me like these "perfect events" are all about Moo's needs and not the kyds. And it teaches the kids to grow up with a sense of entitlement. If parents spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on a birthday, kids just want more elaborate stuff. When I was a kid birthdays were observed with cake and having some friends over when I was younger, but they were not the budget-blowing affairs of today.

I have a very slightly unusually spelled name and if the bakery had spelled it wrong, I would have been a little disappointed but neither me nor my parents would have drop kicked the cake. No words for that other than wow. I'd be interested to know what the babyish moo thought was wrong with it.

It makes you wonder how in one (maybe 2) generation(s), kids have gone from being so very appreciative of that little extra that your parents did to make it just that bit special - to being entitiled little buttholes for not getting the most recent Ijunk/expensive electronics/1000 person party with hollywood stars in attendance, and the raging ParentZillas when not being able to one up their neighbour/friends/siblings excessive kid bday.
How absolutely decadent and 'let them eat cake'-like these twats have become.

My name also had an oddball spelling and for the life of me, no one spelled it right. A funky spelling on a cake would not make me blink; it was the important stuff where if spelling was goofed shit hit fan that got me riled. It got so bad that when I became an adult I unofficially changed my name.

One year I had a Barbie cake for my birthday (one with the full dress being the cake) and I swear it was the most impressive cake I'd ever seen.
