- "Anyway — Harry, a very happy birthday to yeh. Got summat fer yeh here — I mighta sat on it at some point, but it'll taste all right."
- — Rubeus Hagrid.[src]
This birthday cake was given to Harry Potter on his eleventh birthday in 1991 by Rubeus Hagrid. It was a large, sticky chocolate cake with "Happy Birthday Harry" written on it in green icing.[1] The next morning, Hagrid, feeling a bit peckish, said that he wouldn't say no to a bit of it, there being some leftover.[2]
Behind the scenes
- In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, this cake is frosted in pink, and has green lettering, spelling "Happee Birthdae Harry".
- In the film this is the reason Dudley is given a pigs tail because he is scoffing the cake when Hagrid is arguing with his father.
