How Twitter Saved Busy Philipps' Birthday Cake For Her Daughter - Mashed

To give her daughter the best birthday possible, Busy Philipps had to do something she's never done before: ask Twitter for help. Last week the actress and mom of two reached out to Twitter followers in Charleston, SC, tweeting if anyone had a "full size Wilton Stand up bear cake pan," and if so, could she borrow it to make Cricket's birthday cake. She claimed she had lost hers and in a tizzy, she had accidentally ordered the mini version as a replacement. Her youngest would be turning eight the following day. Luckily, it didn't take long for Twitter to come through and a local WCBD news station reporter was able to swing by and drop off her Wilton Stand up bear cake pan for Philipps to borrow.

Less than 24 hours later, Philipps made her grand cake reveal, surprising the world that she in fact was not making a bear cake, but a cake in the shape of Stitch from the animated film "Lilo & Stitch"! "We did it, internet! You helped me locate the cake pan I needed to bake the Stitch cake of Cricket's dreams and IT WAS," Philipps wrote on Instagram. She added that Cricked "loved it more than anything," so we're calling it a win-win for everyone involved.
