Giving DS cake for breakfast

DS woke up early this morning, so DH went downstairs with DS while I got washed.

When I got downstairs, I found that instead of say, changing DS's nappy or giving DS his milk or a normal breakfast, DH has given DS Battenburg cake for breakfast. I'm not sure how much DS ate, but there's half a Battenburg missing now.

Apparently this is okay because DS loves cake (he does love cake), and DH wanted to make DS happy.

Am I really being unreasonable to think that toddlers shouldn't be given cake for breakfast, regardless of how much they like eating cake?

Ds1 and I had apple pie for breakfast yesterday. And for brunch and lunch, we'd polished the damn thing off between the two of us by 3pm Blush

Battenburg would be a step to far for even my lax parenting though, and if he didn't even change his nappy it suggests that there was a fair degree of laziness involved in his decision making which would have annoyed me immensely
