Mine’s kinda dumb, but I ordered an expensive cake and when I went to pick it up, they gave it to me in a shipping box. I didn’t think anything of it because I was sure the cake would be in a pasty box inside the shipping box, but when I got home and unboxed it, it was just the cake inside with no pastry box and bits of cardboard flakes were in the frosting. I’m not sure if I should complain or not. I did scrape off most of the frosting and ate the cake (it was pretty good), but I’m still annoyed by how it was packaged.

having worked in a couple of bakeries, I don't blame you for being annoyed. That was really irresponsible of them.

Complain. You're not paying a premium for friggin' CAKE to eat cardboard flakes.

What kind of bakery doesn't even have the fancy cake in the fancy cake box? Even my friend who briefly ran a cake ordering service out of our tiny apartment bought fancy cake boxes. Is the shipping box even food safe? I would complain and threaten to leave poor reviews until they at least offered partial refund or a discount on my next order.

Even if you don't care about getting a replacement or any money back, mentioning what happened to the bakery so that it doesn't happen again might be helpful. Maybe they had a new person who didn't realize the shipping box wouldn't be a good idea and that person needs better training, or they had run out of cake boxes and now they know better than to let that happen or use a shipping box instead (if they really needed to use the shipping box in a pinch, they probably could have used some parchment paper or something inside to protect the cake).
