To take DH cake at work?

DH is having a really hard time at work at the moment, one of his colleagues (who went for the promotion that DH got) is making his life a misery and his boss is too busy to care. I only work around the corner from him so would really like to take him some cake at lunchtime just to show I'm thinking of him and I support him. But worried it might look a bit...I don't know, interfering? Inappropriate? I never normally go to his work apart from to take DS in when he was born 16 months ago.

WWYD?

In my office, informal visitors aren't allowed past reception. So DH would need to ask the receptionist to call me, and (assuming I was at my desk to take the call) I would have to come to reception to collect it. So no issue with being embarrassed in front of my colleagues. But a greater than 50% chance of me not being at my desk and hence DH having a wasted trip.

I don't work in a high risk profession either!

It's a nice idea. But leave the cake at reception.

I would hate it if my dp did this and walked into my office.

It is my place of work, totally separate from my life at home and doesn't look professional.
