Time flies when you're a busy mum and Prime Minister of the country!
Neve Te Aroha Ardern Gayford turns 2 today and her mum has repeated her experience of last year, making Neve a birthday cake from the classic Australian Women's Weekly Birthday Cake Book.
This time, the Prime Ministerchose to make a piano cake for Neve.
She took to Instagram to reveal it was not as simple as it might appear.
In the caption for a selfie alongside her finished cake, Ardern revealed it has some "structural stability" issues and is being propped up by a can of lentils.
"There is a jar of lentils propping this thing up. Happy Birthday Neve! Thanks for ignoring all of the imperfections in life and just being a joy," the proud mum added.
Ardern's birthday cake is receiving congratulations and sympathy from fellow parents online who are sharing their own trying experiences baking big cakes for their children.
