Gender reveal parties are supposed to be special, but one couple has taken the cake—quite literally! They included their dog, Kai, in their unique reveal, resulting in some unforgettable photos.
The couple decided that Kai would enjoy a cake filled with blue icing to signify they’re having a baby boy. As he relished the sweet treat, they snapped some stunning action shots that perfectly captured his excitement.
With blue icing splattered all over his snout, it was clear that they would soon welcome a son. “We were surprised by the huge social media response and the hilarious photos of Kai with the cake,” said Gardetto. “It’s great to see people enjoying the reveal!”

This inventive reveal has gone viral on TikTok, racking up over 7.3 million views and 1.8 million likes. Users are praising the creativity behind the event, which led to such memorable moments.
While these parties are trendy, not everyone is a fan. A YouGov poll from 2022 showed that 44% of U.S. adults aren’t fond of them, and only 36% of women find them appealing compared to 27% of men.
In another survey, gender reveals ranked lower on the attendance scale, with only 28% of people having been to one, compared to birthday parties and funerals, which topped the list at 89%. Among those who’ve attended a gender reveal, 63% felt positively about them, while 19% had a negative view.

After witnessing Kai’s enthusiastic participation, TikTok users couldn’t help but shower him with compliments. The viral clip generated over 2,000 comments, with fans chiming in.
One viewer remarked, “That pup knew exactly what his job was and he delivered,” while another said, “The chaos of being a boy mom perfectly captured by this pup.” The comments kept coming, with many agreeing it was the “best gender reveal ever.”
