Seems so. The cake incident took place in Varberg according to this article in Aftonbladet:
En tårta kastas på kungen, rakt i ansiktet, under ett besök i Varberg. Säpovakterna brottar ner attentatsmannen direkt - en 16-årig pojke. Kungen tar händelsen med ro. ”Det är sådant man får räkna med”, säger han. Kungen går fram till pojken och frågar hur det är med honom. När han inte får något svar berömmer han smaken på tårtan

I have a question
Today King Carl Gustaf celebrates his 59th birthday. Does anyone find any link on any Swedish tv website to watch his appearance on his birthday today? What time it will be broadcast?

I dont think there will be a special link, but the tv news usually has some reports.
