Analysis time: so the purple guy on top of the cake, that's Thanos. Thanos is the big bad wolf of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU for short) and he has been a shadowy presence in the Marvel films for a long time, having already popped up in the post-credits scene for the first Avengers film.
Scattered around him are infinity stones, which he is seeking to amass for nefarious purposes.

So far no revelations, all this is old news as far as your average Marvel fan is concerned. More intriguing are the arms that support the gateau in question. We can see at least two, possibly three - who do they belong to?

Of course interrogating the intricacies implied by the cake could be overthinking it. Three arms could just be the most structurally sound way of supporting cake-Thanos, and perhaps the baker is just a big Black Widow fan. Or of course the entire plot to the movie could be hidden in subtle pastry clues... Then again maybe it's a mislead. Could the cake be a lie?
All of these cake-based questions will have to go unanswered until Avengers: Infinity War comes out later this year. Until then, at least we have cake.
