BEDFORD-STUYVESANT, Brooklyn (WABC) -- Don't let online haters get the best of you, because now, you can fight back against internet trolls by having them eat their words.



A Brooklyn baker is making revenge sweeter than ever, letting you turn hateful words into a cake.



Kat Thek is the founder of Troll Cakes Bakery & Detective Agency. Their slogan is "See something? Cake something," and the idea is turn around mean comments into a cake that is then sent to the person who posted the nasty words.



There are several options. For $35, you send the hater a custom Troll Cake, as long as you have their address. If not, they can track him or her down to make the Troll Cake delivery, but it will cost $60.



The cake arrives in a box filled with confetti.



Thek said she was inspired by seeing a mean comment about country legend Dolly Parton on the singer's Facebook page. She said she thought it would be so funny to see those mean words on a cake, and that's how her business was born.



"Troll cakes aren't mean," she said. "They are mean things on cake, and mean things on cake are fun."
