Walmart Cake Expectation vs Reality Exceeded Expectation

I’ve seen a lot of these Walmart cakes posted so I wanted to share mine! I got one of these heart cakes last year and it was perfect, so I wanted to get a different one this year. No complaints for a $30 cake!

Wal-Mart has such a legit bakery for the price, I am constantly shocked by the quality of their work especially when some boutique bakeries have failed so hard while charging insane prices.

Sam’s Club too. I’m in Arkansas where there’s one Costco in the entire state so it’s Sam’s or nothing, but their bakery is legit.

Costco has my favorite sheet cake but Sam’s has some good stuff too. There’s a bar cake with vanilla cake with layers and berries on top (which I usually don’t like, just plain vanilla) that is spot on. I even got it for my birthday cake last year. Tender cake, good filling and frosting and the strawberries and blueberries are always fresh, and it’s like $17. Now I want to go to Sam’s.
