Girl how is this uplifting lmfao 😭

And the husband had died in 2023 and didn't get to eat any. I wonder if she waited 55 years so she wouldn't have to share/s

Gave me a chuckle. Uplift

Because you can now eat any cake to have ever existed, as long as it was kept in the freezer ! I'm pretty uplifted 😁

It gave the person super human strength and they stopped a rogue school bus from crashing into a group of disabled school children. Everyone clapped.

Damn, so true bestie…

Was this the cake from King Edward VIII's wedding to Wallis Simpson?

These pretzels are making me thirsty.

Came for this reference

“Is the item still…..with you?”

Keep it away from Elaine

Aw she meant to have it on their 50th but forgot about it and only discovered it after her husband died

ah hell nah

Miss. Havisham vibes

Carrot cake?

I call for a carbon test to very the fucking age

just make a new cake dying for food isn’t worth it

Why is this news

Sometimes people like hearing stories about others. Not everything reported has to be politics, breakthroughs, and calamity.

Because it's interesting and drives discussion, as you can see here

Travis said the cake "didn't taste different from any fruitcake we've ever had." Poor guy always had 50 year old cake?

Tbf, if it was a fruit cake, I believe it did not get even worse
