Mum has pal in stitches after mistaking hot chocolate gift for bath bomb

A mum suffered a hilarious mishap after confusing a hot chocolate bomb for a bath bomb and ended up with marshmallows in her hair.

The woman, known only as 'Trish', texted her pal to thank him for the bomb, but pointed out that it 'took ages to wash out and was quite stick'.

The hilarious messages were shared on social media where Trish says: "Meant to say, put the chocolate bath bomb in the bath and it got stuck in my hair etc, took ages to wash out was quite sticky but thanx luv."

Her friend, Graham, is a baker and runs his own cake business, Bakeology, was astonished to receive the text and quickly informed his pal where she had gone wrong.

He said: "That was not a bath bomb Trish for f*** sake, are you serious?"

Trish replies "wasn't it?" in the text exchange and Graham, now laughing hysterically, replies: "Seriously??? It was a hot chocolate bomb. You drink it. Pour hot milk on it."

Trish admitted the messy bomb had left her with a clean up job on her hands, adding: "Was stuck round the bath and on me. Oh dear. Saw bomb.

"Had to rinse my hair off about three times."

Graham said the whole thing was hilarious, adding: "I've never laughed so much in my life. Got tears rolling down my face."

Following the hilarious escapade, Graham took to his business Facebook page warning other customers not to make the same mistake and shared screen grabs of the text messages.

he said: "Just a friendly reminder to everyone who bought cocoa bombs this weekend - They're hot chocolate.

"I don't want to be waking up to msg's like these."

The post quickly gathered attention with more than 41k shares and 17k comments.

While some people couldn't believe Trish's error others admitted to having had similar mishaps.

One mum said her daughter washed herself with fudge for a month.

She said: "My daughter washed herself with fudge for a full month after Xmas after thinking her brother had bought her loads of fancy soap. It wasn't until her other brother used the bathroom and asked who had been eating fudge in shower that she realised her mistake."

Another said: "Hubby swigged surgical spirit thinking it was gavison. Needless to say he forgot about his indigestion!"

"The time I got a plumber in for the noise which was actually a hissing Lush bath bomb," added another.
