Store-Bought Cake – How They Measure Up

Reviews · 

If you grew up in a household with a resident baker, you might have been discouraged from buying a birthday cake from the local grocery store. When made well, homemade cakes are pretty tasty, but there are considerable effort and time that goes into making them delectable. In addition, a lot of people may be able to whip up a box full of cake mix, but they don’t have a clue as to how to decorate it properly. Learn and compare all cake prices so you have a full handle on the differences between various store-bought cakes. Here is a summary of the types of cakes available at popular retailers and how they measure up.

Cakes From Costco

You can go to Costco to pick up a case of paper towels, 20 pounds of brown rice and, of course, a custom-made birthday cake. With few exceptions, a membership is required to get into Costco and make any type of purchase, so be certain that you have factored that into your decision. Costco has a standard bakery that whips up pastries, fresh bread, muffins, and bagels in addition to cakes, so check to see that you can be accommodated before making any further plans. As far as taste goes, customers rave about cakes from Costco, as they are always fresh.

Whole Foods Cakes

Sometimes you want to purchase an already made cake that tastes good and other times you really want a cake that is good for you. Cakes sold by Whole Foods tend to be better in quality when compared to places such as Walmart, which makes sense considering it is a company that prides itself on healthy ingredients. If you have a gluten-free diet or prefer your cakes to be made with cage-free eggs, Whole Foods is likely the best place that you can purchase a store-bought cake from.

The Bakery at Walmart

Walmart is known for being a very inexpensive store to shop at. Most other stores that offer products in the same price range don’t have a bakery, let alone the capability of making custom party cakes. It might be surprising to a lot of people, but the cakes made at Walmart are great tasting and they look excellent, too. If you want a store-bought cake but you don’t want to open a membership account or pay a lot, try Walmart. You will be able to find the same type of cakes found at any other bakery and they will cost a lot less.

Buying a box of cake mix doesn’t mean that your work is done, even if it is a lot easier than making a cake from scratch. You still need eggs, oil, water, and perhaps other ingredients, as well as frosting and decorations. Buying a cake from stores that you normally shop at for groceries or even lawn care supplies is a good option if you aren’t a fan of baking or just don’t want to wait. All in all, store-bought cakes are as healthy, delicious, and beautiful as any cake that you could make at home in your spare time.
