The woman revealed how the couple had decided to serve cupcakes to their wedding guests while planning to freeze the wedding cake and consume it on their first anniversary. While the cake wasn't necessarily expensive, the newlyweds had decided to save it for a year as a 'tradition'. The duo then went away on their honeymoon for four days whereas the in-laws stayed back at home. Upon their return, they found out that the cake was gone.
"When confronted, my in-laws said that saving a wedding cake for a year is disgusting and they did us a favour," she wrote in her post. "We also made it very clear that we were saving it before leaving on our honeymoon. Additionally, we did have some leftover cupcakes and we told our in-laws they were welcome to eat those," she added.
Reddit users posted their reactions to the bizarre story. Some users thought that the tradition of saving a wedding cake for a year was quite unnecessary, and a new one could be ordered instead. Others suggested ways of taking revenge from the in-laws for their uncalled-for gesture.
