Photos of her efforts have received more than 2500 ‘likes’ since being posted to an Australian Facebook Group. This prompted delighted responses from parents who were able to ‘feel’ the boy’s excitement by simply looking at them.

“Aww, I feel so happy for my birthday just from looking at this, great job mama!” One woman wrote.

Another said, “I’d love for him to have seen his reaction when this was opened.”

Others called it ‘adorable, brilliant, and a perfect way to make a birthday memorable even if it falls on a Monday.

It’s not the only elaborate lunchbox to make headlines in this year’s media.

The parents of an eight year-old boy caused a lot of controversy last month by giving their son lobster tails and candied pecans in their lunchbox. This was because he’requested it’. 

The father of the boy shared a photo of his lavish lunch, which included lobster salad, blueberries, nuts, three KitKat bars, chunks of orange, and white peach.

“Hi again!” My wife is making it for our son. He wrote that he requested lobster.

‘After taking the picture, she removed and sliced the lobster tail. It should be cold.

The decadent spread had 1,600 ‘likes’ in less than 24 hour after it was shared online. It sparked thousands upon thousands of passionate responses.

Some thought it was excessive, but most people praised the mom for exposing their son to new flavours and expanding his knowledge of food.

Despite some sarcastic remarks, the majority of the group praised the lunch.

“I love this. Sometimes my darlings want something different for lunch and we embrace it. Your wife is doing amazing! One woman wrote.

Another commenter added: “This looks amazing, you did an excellent job. Don’t be offended by the haters. They don’t count! This photo is a simple expression of my love for you, my son.

Others begged their mother to cook for their children.

“What the heck, we’re all dying from quick and easy processed foods here. I don’t have enough time and can’t cook. One woman said, “You’re doing great, but a little jealous!”
