It was sheer delight
Kara Wagland, a Canadian mom and TV sports reporter, shared the video of her son Jake’s 7th birthday party, where she stunned the boy and his friends with a burn cake.
After Jake blows out his candles, his mom can be heard asking if he’s “ready to watch the magic.”
Seriously on fire ...
Kara then lights the top layer of the cake, and Jake excitedly exclaims, “It evolves?” while she tells him to step back and watch what happens. The Charmander layer burns through, revealing Charmeleon, which is his next form.
“It’s evolving into Charmeleon!” Jake says, excitedly pointing to the cake.
It's a seriously cool cake
The cake continues to burn, and Charizard, the final form is revealed. “It’s evolving more,” Jake repeats excitedly while his friends look on. In the end, it’s clear how happy Jake was to see his very cool cake.
“The coolest #burncake for a huge #Pokemon fan on his birthday!” Kara captioned the video.
This was a total win for mom

“This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen ,” a commenter shared.
“He’s gonna talk about that cake for years to come, big mom W there,” one person wrote.
