A woman in California named Ariel Johnson posted a video after a bakery's voicemail message accidentally ruined her gender reveal.

good ole carrot cake. not used for gender reveal

She gave them a sealed envelope from her doctor and asked for different cake fillings.  Raspberry or strawberry for a girl, and blackberry or blueberry for a boy.

After she placed the order, someone from the bakery called and left a voicemail letting her know they were out of blackberry filling.  So . . . she's having a boy.

The bakery felt bad and gave her a full refund.  But just to add insult to injury, it turned out they DID actually have blackberry filling. Not your best gender reveal, eh?  

So is there more? Yep. Here's the follow up video

There are worse gender reveals...really

A dad in the Philippines is going viral after revealing his baby's gender . . . by FLUSHING A TOILET.

He dyed the water in the toilet tank, and decorated the bathroom with pink and blue balloons.

He had the whole family cram into the bathroom . . . flushed the toilet . . . and the water was BLUE, so it's a boy.

He called it a "low-budget" and fun way to deliver the news to everyone.  And for what it's worth, they all seemed to enjoy it.

So is it the WORST gender reveal ever?  No one died, so probably not.  But it might be the least classy gender reveal yet.
