A person has said that he was left “speechless” after Swiggy mixed up his instructions for a cake he had ordered from a bakery in Nagpur. The man tweeted that he had asked the online food delivery service to mention whether the cake contained eggs or not. However, instead of mentioning it in the order details, someone wrote, “contain egg”, on the cake itself. While the mischief was harmless and would have made no difference to the cake's taste, the issue has led to a good laugh on social media. Also, Swiggy responded to resolve the issue to its customer's satisfaction.
“So I ordered a cake from a renowned bakery in Nagpur, through Swiggy. In the order details, I mentioned 'Please mention if the cake contains egg'. I am speechless after receiving the order,” said the customer.
He has also shared an image of the cake with the tweet, which indeed appeared laughable.

Some have also shared how they had to undergo a similar experience because the baker could not understand their instructions.
Me: Please put the Happy Birthday "Pin Board" on top of cake.

When a user asked Wasnik why he did not name the “renowned bakery”, he said felt it was an “honest mistake” and did not want to defame it.
