In a viral TikTok, a one-year-old hilariously discovers birthday cake and promptly buries her face in it (like, so far in it)
We all have that one food we’d happily submerge our entire body in and eat forever. For me, it’s crab rangoon. For the one-year-old in this hilarious viral TikTok, it’s birthday cake. Oh, boy, is it birthday cake.
Mom Megan Erenberger shared a video from her daughter Jetta’s first birthday party—specifically the part where Jetta had a photo shoot with a smash cake. It’s pretty typical one-year-old stuff, and it’s always exciting when your kid really goes for it, making a mess of the cake and creating some adorable memories (and photos) in the process.
But Jetta took everything a step further. This girl has discovered birthday cake, and she’s ready for the world to know. This cake is her life now. It’s her everything.
@meganerenberger Jetta did not disappoint with the cake smash 🤣 #firstbirthday #cakesmash

In the video, as a camera shutter clicks, the adults can be heard cackling in the background as Jetta burrows through that cake using her mouth like a backhoe. Her mom manages to yell through her laughter, “You gotta come up for air, girl!” but Jetta disagrees—after all, who needs oxygen when you have cake? Jetta, at one year old, has achieved nirvana, and we should all be taking notes. BRB, I need to go buy a birthday cake so I can try to experience this level of bliss for myself.
Will any other baby’s cake smash ever top this? Absolutely not. But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try. Jetta would want everyone to hear the gospel of birthday cake, so do it for Jetta.
