Finally, consider Frida’s potential claim with regard to the cake, whether a seller will be considered negligent will depend on whether it was reasonable to expect them to examine the cake for fault, or warn of any possible risks. It was emphasized that the defect would have been very easy for the seller to discover, whereas, for example, a cake retailer would not be expected to check the hardness or soft of cake.

The Consumer Protection Act 1987 is unlikely to apply, because the cake was not sold in the course of a business.
