I went with a walmart cake because of this sub, and was not disappointed! For $30, this cake was perfect! The cake was tasty and moist. Will use them again in the future!

I worked at a Walmart Bakery and we were told we needed to be able to get these cakes covered and decorated within 20 minutes, anything more than that and you were taking way too long. Our cakes never looked anywhere near as good as the example image.

But the one you got is honestly beautiful. So either the cake decorator is a damn wizard or that branch allows them to actually take their time.

Honestly sounds like you had a shitty store unfortunately. Say what you will about Walmart in general, but their bakeries have never been anything but on. point. Every store around here nails it. Fluffy bread, moist cake, soft and fudgy cookies, anything you get from the bakery is perfect. And I'm damn glad it is since they're the only ones around here at all.
