Reese Witherspoon's Precious Hand-Painted Birthday Cake Was Basically Reese in Dessert Form (PIC)

Reese Witherspoon's 43rd birthday cake seemed to embody her very personality.

The Real Housewives' Most Over-the-Top Birthday Cakes and Desserts Ever

When you're Reese Witherspoon and you're celebrating a birthday, you're not exactly likely to have a naughty cake, or a creepy one, or even one that's way over the top. You're Reese! So your cake will naturally be perfectly feminine, sweet, and pretty — something, you might say, like the actress in cake form.

Indeed, the actress turned 43 years old when she celebrated her birthday on March 22. For the occasion, she enlisted the help of Preppy Bakery (so apt!) to make a celebratory confection, delivered right to her. The single-tier round cake was covered in springtime details such as colorful blooms and butterflies — also appropriate for California's so-called "super bloom" and butterfly migration, gathering tons of buzz these days.

Sharing a pic of the cake on Instagram, Preppy Bakery wrote, "I was so honored when @reesewitherspoon asked me to make her birthday cake!! Last week I delivered her this confetti cake with hand painted butterflies dancing around a flowery meadow. Happy birthday Reese!!
