Have you ever loved something so much that you forfeited birthday cake for it?

Well, that's what one of actor Brendan Fraser's three sons, Leland, did for his 12th birthday recently -- BUT he traded it in for something arguably just as yummy …

A RAMEN cake!

"They love ramen … passionately," Brendan tells Rach of his three boys. "So much so that I have to make it twice a week."

Sounds like a fine bi-weekly dinner to us, *but* Brendan says he wouldn't mind if the kids asked for a salad every once in a while.

(We get it, we get it!)

The good news is that Leland loves to cook, so he may soon grow to love foods *other than* ramen.

"He's become really good with eggs," the "Trust" star says.

Well, Rach says mastering eggs is the mark of a true chef, so Brendan may have a future professional on his hands!
