A volunteer for the charity posted this response on Facebook, commenting:

"My heart broke for the baker because I know how much of herself she puts into her donations. My heart broke for the family should they come across the posts because it may take from their joy of receiving the gift. It broke for our team whose extraordinary efforts were used in this way. Our Sugar Angel wasn't commissioned to copy Shawna's work, she was asked for a Frozen cake for a sick child and she did just that."

The nonprofit organisation creates cakes and other treats for families impacted by the critical illness of a child. The charity's website says that its goal is "to create a custom cake for the ill child, or their sibling, that provides a temporary escape from worry and creates a positive memory during a difficult time".
