To celebrate her birthday, a local woman in Pretoria plugged South Africans with a café that not only offers delicious sweet treats but also the experience to craft their own cake.
TikTok user and baker @sibahlesonkeg uploaded a video on her account to inform app users about Leona's Cakery in Hazelwood.
She said in her video:
"For only R260, you get to design yourself a cake. If you feel like celebrating yourself, spoiling yourself, or even going out on a girls' date, this place is a place to go to."

@sibahlesonkeg chose lilac icing to cover her cake, as it matched her gorgeous dress.
"Designing the cake was a bit of a challenge, but I enjoyed it so much. It was so therapeutic."
