Gretchen Rossi's birthday falls on Halloween eve, which means that The Real Housewives of Orange County alum has birthday cakes which are ghastlier than most. Just last year, her beau, Slade, surprised her with a confection covered in bloody frosting. And this year, he wrangled a cake that paid spooky homage to Gretchen's new role as a mommy.
In her Instagram Stories, Gretchen showed off the spread at her birthday gathering. There was a gorgeous cheese and fruit board from Lucky Board L.A., which also provided snacks for the O.C. mama's lavish baby shower. And for dessert, there was a cake in the shape of a mummy. Get it?
Laughing as she showed off the punny treat, Gretchen said: "Look at how cute this cake is, you guys, that Slade got for me. It says, "We love you, mummy" — and it's a mummy!" Gretchen also got another festive cake that had a more straightforward message: "Happy Birthday Gretchen."
