Where does the pet fridge cake heist trend come from?
Updated:
Quick answer
It's an October 2026 video trend. A hidden camera inside a fridge films a pet digging into a whole tray of tiramisu with a spoon. The door closes, and when it opens again the tray has been scraped bare. A white AI cat clip went viral first, and dog and adult versions came next.

The timeline
Fridge POV jokes are older than this trend. A 2024 clip titled “POV: you have siblings” passed 54 million views, and in June 2026 a real couple hid a camera in their fridge to catch a cheesecake thief.
@florinsbn5 posted an AI white cat eating tiramisu on 17 October 2026, and it sat at about 1.3 million views when we looked on 23 October 2026. Two days after the cat, on 19 October, a chihuahua version with the door-shut ending appeared, along with an adult version at roughly 1 million views.
What makes it stick
- One-second setup: a security cam, a thief, done.
- A proper punchline: the door opens on an empty tray.
- A pet holding a spoon: funny on its own, and one picture is all it needs.
