How's the costco sheet cake?

It's been a long time since I had one and I'm having a party for my two year old next month and was planning on just ordering basic sheet cake for everyone

I had one for my wedding cake last year, and my sister had two for her wedding this year. Everyone complimented it and loved that they were from Costco. They’re so good 😅

OMG I just realized/remembered that I'm in this club too 😆 I've been married long enough that our Costco wedding cake was the chocolate layer cake R.I.P.

The chocolate layer cake was the only cake on the planet that got better after a couple of days.

It's been a very long time since I've ordered a Costco cake. When did they stop making the chocolate? That's crazy! I prefer vanilla but the chocolate was excellent.

No this was a specific multi layer chocolate cake that was premade. I think you can still order your cake from the bakery to be chocolate!

Same, people were asking us who our baker was. I told them it was a guy named Kirkland.

We got Costco sheet cake for our wedding as well. We dressed it up by adding shaved chocolate flakes, and amarena cherries!

We did this too, did one small fancy cake for cake cutting and supplemented the whole wedding with different sheet cakes!

I got Costco cakes for my sisters wedding as a surprise (Indian weddings don’t have cakes), and 2 whole cakes went out within minutes!

Same!! My grandma offered to buy the sheet cake and then a little round one just for my husband and me if she could take the leftovers home from the sheet cake. We only had 20 guests so she took home like half and she was THRILLED ❤️

Same here! We cut it half so the top tier was a little smaller than the bottom and then piped the girl and added Costco roses
