… you're setting up things for a birthday party. Your Sim bakes the cake, but before she placed the birthday candles, she leaves the room The toddler is hangry and enters the kitchen and before you can say STOP, the baby grabs a piece of the cake. But of course.
Please share your moments.

Then their was the time I got invited by club friends (renegades in this case) to “hang out”. The invite said the night club and I thought, cool new people. After the loading screen they ended up at the (deserted) Bluffs.
The cake one is a classic.
Back in Sims3, I punished a Sim when she flirted with her boyfriend's new brother-in-law right in front of the ENTIRE family on Gift Giving Day. She wound up in the bin. To this day that's where she is. LOL I never let her back out.

I do it this way because the same thing always happened to me, they grabbed a piece before I could add candles.
So what I do is I have the "backup cake". It's a cake I baked at some point that no one ate (three birthdays in a row, all the toddlers where constatly on a sugar rush) and it ended up in the household inventory. When a cake is in the household inventory it does not age, at all.
So when one of my sims decides to be naughty and take a piece I pause, whip out the other cake, and put it back in the inventory as soon as they are aged up.
It's probably cheating, but cooking 3 cakes in a row for the same sim and not having them age up because someone would take a piece was seriously testing my patience.
This hasn't been as bad it used to be or maybe I'm just good and quickly getting the candles on it.
Also Pro Tip you can actually store an uneaten cake in the fridge with candles on it and it will keep for a while which is good for a 100 Baby save where you're having a lot of birthdays in a short space of time but don't want to constantly have to make cakes and/or have your family constantly eating cake.
You do realize you can add the topper and then place the cake into the Sims' inventory, right?

Then i clicked on the cake to see if I could age the baby up through it and of course it wasnt possible. Im not sure what I was thinking, but the guests were already there, cakes was baked and the house was packed. So just aged up the baby and ate cake without candles. I wish parents could just blow the candles and the baby would grow up this way though.
Talking about food.
I also hate it when you throw a dinner party or make a big festive food breakfast/dinner and guests grab a plate and just sit everywhere else in the house instead of all on the table. I wish there was a easier way to have them take drinks and food from the middle of the table while sitting and remain chatting.
There is no cake for the baby. You just click on the bassinet and find where it says Age Up. Voila.

Yes, but in this case, it wasn't the toddler's birthday, but her older brother's.

You do realize that you can bake your sim's birthday cakes at an earlier time when there aren't lots of hungry sims around and then place it into your sims' inventories or the fridge, right? ;-)
My story took place YEARS ago when I'd just gotten the game and no I wasn't aware that this was something you could do because I'd never had an off site destination wedding before. I was sharing it simply because it was related to the topic at hand and maybe it was something that other people might also not realize it could happen because they don't do destination weddings either.
But since this is something you clearly know about why don't you do it yourself with your birthday cakes if you find the stolen pieces such an issue for you?
If you set the table, then set your prepared food in the center and call to meal, you will have most if not all of your Sims so just that.
