‘ ₹5 Lakh Father's Day Cake' Trends on X: ‘Beta, isse toh 2BHK ka down payment ho jaata'
A screenshot now going viral on social media appears to be from a food delivery or e-commerce platform. It displays a selection of Father's Day-themed cakes from a bakery, with options to choose between Veg/Non-Veg and features to sort or filter items. Among the cakes listed, one has stood out—for all the wrong reasons:
"Father's Day Special Hazelnut Chocolate Cake (500gm)
Price: ₹ 5,00,000 (likely a typo or technical glitch)
Note: The product description humorously reads, "Your dad wouldn't want you spending a sin..."—perhaps poking fun at the absurdly high price.
The other cakes listed are more reasonably priced:
Father's Day Special Butterscotch Cake (500gm)
Rating: 4.1 (1.1k reviews)
Description: Soft vanilla sponge cake layered with butterscotch.
Father's Day Special Red Velvet Cake (500gm)
Rating: 4.3 (933 reviews)
Description: Soft and rich red velvet cake with cream cheese".
All the cakes include a "Happy Father's Day" topper and an "Add" button for ordering. Despite the clearly erroneous price tag on the hazelnut cake, the image has gone viral and triggered a flood of hilarious responses online. While it's unclear whether the screenshot is authentic or digitally manipulated, the responses have been priceless.
A user wrote: "Dad's reaction after seeing the cake: 'Son, that could've been a down payment for a 2BHK flat!' 😅 #5LakhCake."
Another wrote: "This is seriously suspicious—you all really need to check this out."
A third user said: "Everyone's talking about it. Few can afford it. And fewer can forget it. The viral sensation: #5LakhCake."
Another said: "Dad took a bite and said: 'It's good... but the price gave me indigestion!'
As the cake continues to trend, it seems like this Father's Day might just be remembered more for a pricing glitch than for gifts or heartfelt messages.
