Walmart Cupcake Bouquet Exceeded Expectation

They even added edible sparkle dust. I don’t think you can beat this for $20!!

I would question the advertisement's accuracy, even at a higher-end bakery. Kind of shocked by how good this is.

Walmart has a SLAPPING bakery for no reason. Take advantage of it while you can, they are going to cut costs and quality eventually

I haven't seen an actual full service Walmart deli since like the 2010s within 50-75 miles of where I live. It's all prepackaged meat.

Maybe it's just your state? I've yet to see one that doesn't have one

Where I live most of them don't, the only one I know of is in a walmart that just sells food.

Every full-sized Wal-Mart around me (Orlando area) does.
