🍰 Petty revenge involving red velvet cake 🍰
This story happened years ago, but I still think it’s hilarious. When I was eleven I was visiting my cousins for the summer. It was an overseas trip and my mom had business somewhere else so she left me in my aunt’s care. (Who to be honest, is a nice person. This is just an exception) It was their grandfather’s birthday, and they picked out a red velvet cake. I was excited to have some, but when the time came around to pass out the slices, I noticed that my cousins got larger slices than me. While their cake slices would be considered decent, my slice was paper-thin. Whatever, it’s still cake. But if that wasn’t enough, after two bites, my aunt took my cake away saying that “I had enough sugar.” I was annoyed, but didn’t really complain. A few months later, my birthday was coming up. Up to this point, I had the memory of the cake playing on a loop in the back of my mind, so I specifically requested a red velvet cake. When the time came for my party, I had eaten a quarter of the cake and my aunt got nothing (because she lived in a different country). Anyways, my aunt and I are cool and I don’t think she even remembers this event, but I think it was hilarious that little me was so petty.
##The Red Velvet Cake Incident
###The cake inequality
– Comparing slice sizes
– Aunt’s unfair intervention
– Feeling annoyed but not complaining
###The birthday revenge
– Specific request for red velvet cake
– Enjoying a quarter of the cake
– Aunt’s absence at the party
##The Aftermath
Despite the whole cake incident being funny in hindsight, it’s always interesting to see how small acts of pettiness can play out in real life. It’s all in good fun now, but the story of the red velvet cake has become a family legend.
So, what’s the moral of the story? Perhaps it’s that we shouldn’t mess with a kid’s cake, or maybe it’s just a reminder to always get your fair share of dessert. Either way, I can’t help but laugh at the memory of my 11-year-old self seeking revenge through red velvet cake.

Your aunt wasn’t a nice person, from this story. Glad you got cake after all.
You had me at red velvet cake
What was the revenge?
I once had the honor of having some red velvet cake made by a friend’s mother who used her mother’s old southern recipe, which was **her** mother’s recipe, made from scratch. I have never had any as good since. I do keep looking though.
I once accidentally sent someone to the hospital with a homemade red velvet cake. They went to the bathroom later on in the day and went to the ER convinced they were having severe rectal bleeding—just the dye!
There’s no revenge here, petty or otherwise. Just getting your own cake for your birthday in a country she doesn’t even live in is not at all revenge.
In the child’s mindset, it was revenge. I understand her completely.
It doesn’t matter that the aunt was in another country. OP got as much cake as she wanted, and the aunt got none.
People be calling anything revenge on this sub
in your heart of hearts, you know red velvet is bullshit. It tastes like Play-Doh. It is not velvety. The only thing that’s good about it is the cream cheese frosting, which is meant to live on top of carrot cake, like God intended.
