Zayn Malik is celebrating his birthday with an incredible looking treat!
On Sunday, Jan. 12, the former One Direction singer turned 32 and took to his Instagram Stories to show off a jaw-dropping, horror-themed gift that begs the question: Is it cake?
“Thank you for all the birthday wishes, 32!!” he captioned a photo of himself holding a Last of Us-themed cake.
He also took the opportunity to thank his fans for their support and generosity. “I’ve seen the projects you’ve all been creating to help others and couldn’t be more thankful,” he continued. “Thanks for raising funds for causes close to my heart.”
In a second Instagram Stories post, the singer offered another look at the cake, featuring a large bust of a clicker, the fungal zombie-esque frights from the Last of Us video game franchise and HBO series of the same name. His first name was emblazoned in large, bold letters at the base of the skin-crawling confection.

In the caption, Malik gave a shout-out to the cake’s creator. “@thelondonbaker Thank you for this amazing piece of art, you’re an absolute legend,” he wrote. “This cake is the best I’ve ever had… in 32 years!”
Instagram user @thelondonbaker is Elizabeth Rowe, the winner of season 2 of Is It Cake? on Netflix.
This isn’t the first time the “Pillowtalk” singer has received a deceptive-looking dessert for his birthday. When Malik turned 28 in 2021, former girlfriend Gigi Hadid — who is a huge Cake Boss fan — commissioned celebrity baker Buddy Valastro to make a Bradford City AFC-themed birthday cake for him.
The confection resembled the English team’s brown and yellow striped jersey on a soccer field. It featured a scorecard that read, “Happy 28th Birthday Z! Love, G.”
Malik recently made news when he ended his Stairway to the Sky Tour early, citing his vocal health as the reason he was unable to perform for his final U.K. stop in Newcastle.
