About My Little Bun
A scratch-off gender reveal card that lives in a text message, built for the families who cannot be in the room.
Why it exists
It started as a present. Someone missed their family, who live a long way away, and there was no good way to let them share the moment a scan result comes back. A photo in a group chat is over before anyone has looked up. A parcel takes a week and arrives after the news.
My Little Bun is the middle: one link, sent the second you are ready, that everyone opens at the same time. Each person rubs the foil off on their own phone — with the sound, the haptics and the confetti — so the reveal happens in their hands rather than on a screenshot.
How it works
- Pick a theme and what the card reveals. Nothing is locked until you finish.
- Add a message, and an ultrasound photo if you want one.
- Test-scratch the real card yourself before anyone else sees it.
- Send one link. No app to install, no account to make, on any phone.
What it is not
It does not print anything, it does not host a photo album, and it does not post anywhere on your behalf. A card carries exactly one surprise and then it is done. The link never expires, so the card is still there when someone wants to look at it again.
The themes
- Pastel Bakery — Something sweet is baking
- Neutral Teddy — A little friend is on the way
- Cloud Nine — Head in the clouds, baby on the way
- Little Meadow — Growing something lovely
- Starry Bun — Wished upon a star
Who made it
My Little Bun is a small independent project, not a company with a sales team. It costs £9.99 to send a card. Questions, problems and ideas all go to the same place: hello@mylittlebun.com.
