But as is tradition when it comes to imitating cakes you’ve seen on the internet, things did not quite go according to plan.

Stacey shared a time lapse video of her decorating adventures to Instagram stories, as she attempted the cake, but she couldn’t help cracking up at what she ended up with.

“Failing at making a Pikachu cake has brought me so much joy because every time I go and look at it I just can’t help myself,” she said.

“They made it look so easy on the internet!”

She went on to joke that her Pikachu looked like he’d had some work done. “He looks like he’s had fillers,” she said. “What’s happening here, Pika?”

The birthday celebrations started earlier in the week, with a family trip to the pool at Butlins.

Stacey shared a shot of herself and her two sons, Zachary and Leighton, along with her partner Joe Swash, as the family prepared to swim.

The image was captioned, “Happy birthday Leighton! Ready to make some memories especially in your honour. It’s my favourite time: Family time. In true Leighton style… Let’s do this. I love you pickle.”

The two boys are getting ready to make room for a new baby, and Stacey’s been open about how emotional the journey has been.

She shared a photo of herself holding Zachary and Leighton’s hands, claiming the idea of not being able to hold three hands at once made her cry.

“Was about to post this and for some reason got a bit emotional thinking, I don’t have three hands,” she said. “I need to grow another hand!

“How am I going to hold all of their hands? I don’t want to let them go ever!”
