Olivia Munn Says She 'Didn't Have the Energy' to Make John Mulaney's Birthday Cake This Year
The actress admitted she "went to the grocery store" to get a pre-made dessert after a silly baking fail in 2023
John Mulaney didn't get a homemade birthday cake this year — but his wife Olivia Munn suggested it might be for the best.
On Monday, Aug. 26, Munn, 44, shared a photo of the cakes she bought her husband to mark his 42nd birthday. However, unlike the 2023 sweet treat she gave the comedian, she didn't make this one herself.
An image shared on the actress' Instagram Stories showed a cake with what appeared to be chocolate icing on it and the words, "Happy Birthday," while a second one was covered in white frosting and had "John John!" written on it. Both confections had four red candles on them.
"I didn't have the energy to make a (bad) birthday cake this year so I went to the grocery store," Munn wrote across the snap.
She then shared another photo on her Instagram Stories showing last year's offering, while Justin Bieber's 2015 hit "Sorry" played in the background.
"Last year's," Munn wrote across a photo of a messy cake with white icing, lots of sprinkles and Happy Birthday candles on top of it. The star added a melting face emoji.
Last year, Munn revealed that her and Mulaney's son Malcolm Hiệp, 2, had destroyed the birthday cake she'd been working on.
Sharing a clip on her Instagram Stories at the time, Munn said, “I tried to make a four-layered birthday cake and the bottom layer is coming out."
“Like and subscribe for more baking tips," she joked in the caption as she stopped Malcolm from grabbing a knife that was lying next to the cake in the post. That didn't stop the youngster from getting his hands on the frosting, though — the actress also shared a photo of his hand next to a large handmade dent in the cake.

Despite the sweet treat not being the prettiest, Munn insisted, “The cake was delicious. An ugly. Success!”
Last month, Malcolm gave his mom an adorable birthday shoutout as the actress spoke to the camera while celebrating her 44th birthday.
“Happy birthday Mommy!” the toddler said in the clip shared on Instagram.
“Oh my gosh! Thank you so much, you’re the sweetest," Munn replied, adding, "Can you say ‘I love you, mama?’”
“I love you so much,” Malcolm told her, as the proud mom responded, “I love you so much.”
