It was probably expired before anyone bought it.

Maybe not one person had a birthday that day
Statistically improbable.

Oh yeah? Well do you know anyone who was born on February 20th? No? I rest my case. Nobody was born on that day. Just like how Bielefeld doesn't exist. Nor Finland, for that matter

I know many people who were NOT born on February 20th, so, using my sample size of <lots of people not born on February 20th> it can be poorly deduced that in fact, no one has ever been born on that day

Mystery of the century??? Nah, more like... mystery of the day  8)

Nah, it's normal. The number of people coming into your store on any day asking for birthday cakes will have some mean and standard deviation, it won't be the same every day. You'll get the occasional outlier where either many people want a birthday cake, or no-one does.

If the shop is not very popular, or designs cakes to the customer's request, it would make sense for then to require the customer to place an order beforehand instead of keeping several cakes in stock at all times. So perhaps they made a birthday cake, but the customer didn't show up to claim it, so they just threw it away.

You sell it for cheap if that’s the case. You don’t just throw out a potential sale because it has “Happy Birthday CLlNT” on it.

OR... you add a little bit more frosting and upsell it to someone that wants an offensive, derogatory cake!

I didn’t deliberately use certain letters instead of certain other letters to make it look like that, you did.
