Would you pay a restaurant to eat your own birthday cake?
Ivor Baddiel, the London-based TV and radio writer, expressed his disbelief on social media after being informed by staff about the 'cakeage' charge.
"I’m a big fan of cakeage, have charged it myself several times," replied Michelin-star chef Paul Foster. Many people argued it was fair as it prevents the restaurant from being able to sell its own dessert. One person said: "A cakeage I suppose I can it understand. £10 / head is ripping the piss though. No one is not ordering professional dessert because of a birthday cake."While Ivor didn't reveal the name of the restaurant, many users said they had similar experiences, with one saying they were recently charged £40 to bring a Colin the Caterpillar cake to a 'posh restaurant' in London.
