This Husband Gave His Amazon-Obsessed Wife The Best Birthday Surprise
"You know you order from Amazon a little too much if your husband gets this cake," Emily McGuire said.

One clever husband came up with an out-of-the box idea for his wife’s birthday this year.

Waylon “Mac” McGuire surprised wife Emily McGuire with a custom cake shaped like one of her very favorite things — an Amazon package — for her July 19 birthday. Sweet Dreams Bakery in Dunn, North Carolina, created the confection with true-to-life details such as a personalized shipping label and Amazon Prime box tape — all edible, of course.

“I laughed so hard when I saw it,” McGuire, who works as a photographer, told HuffPost.

“In that moment, I knew my husband gets me,” she told CafeMom.

McGuire said she orders pretty much everything on Amazon, from clothes to coffee, and gets packages delivered to the house several times a week.
