Chocolate cake with a less-sweet buttercream and homemade salted caramel.
I'm putting a second layer of frosting around the top and using wafer paper for a burn cake.
The "you called" is a running joke at this point. In 10 years, he's never missed a phone call if we aren't together at night. He works in another province and every night calls to say he's good.
Last month, he went out for a couple drinks for his bday which turned into a few which turned into him passing out in bed without calling. I panicked most of the night thinking he was hurt/robbed/fell off the dock etc. At one point, I wondered if he was cheating but figured he still would have called to avoid suspicion.
I helped the kids make him a cake but he didn't get a themed one from me. He will be home this week so he's getting a cake. It's not Fallout themed as I had planned but our favourite fandom, Bob's Burgers.
Next time, I'm doing the face differently but for a 4 inch cake, I think I did okay! He's going to laugh.

Haha aww, this is adorable! I’m sure your husband regretted not calling that night. The cake looks awesome, great job!
That is so funny! That’s so cute haha
Does the wafer paper leave a burnt flavour after burning away?
I should not have been actively drinking coffee while scrolling.
Well executed. Thanks for the giggle 🙂
I used to travel a lot for work and similar happened to me. I was mortified when I woke up at 3 am to return the beer I had rented and there were like 20 missed calls and texts and a message light blinking on the hotel phone.
It’s been 20 years and I still feel so bad. My wife, a woman way better than I deserve, has found the humor in it and we can joke about it now.

Bob’s Burgers is my favorite show. This is amazing!
