The cake's centrepiece represented naked breasts with nipples. It was iced with the words Happy 12th Birthday. It is not clear if the cake was provided by the restaurant or the boy's family.
Campaigners say the incident is contrary to Hooters' claim to be "family friendly" and may breach the terms of the restaurant's licence. Bristol City Council is carrying out a formal investigation to see if licence conditions were breached.
An online petition, calling for Hooters to have their licence revoked, criticises the 'pornographic' birthday cake representing disembodied and life-like naked breasts, with the nipples fully displayed, decorated with the words “Happy 12th Birthday”.

Hooters really needs to drop the family-friendly nonsense in their marketing. They're not fooling anyone, are they?
Family takes 12 year old boy to Hooters...gets "offended". You couldn't see that coming?
I'm wondering if it was even the family who got offended. It's suggested in the article that the cake may have been provided by the boy's family.
...if you dine with cannibals, sooner or later you're gonna get eaten.
