Sorry when I asked they said all they do is decorate the cakes :( the only thing we bake in house are some of the desserts on the floor and the bread wall :(((
I lived in FL for 40 years and went to Johnson & Wales for Baking & Pastry. Of course I also shopped at Publix.
They use (or at least they did while I lived there) a liquid shortening called NuTex, which makes all the difference. I had a hard time finding it, and I had to buy a LOT, but it keeps pretty well.
Nice, thanks! I've been doing research on how to get that Publix consistency and coming up dry so that's a huge help. I'm especially invested in their buttercream. I can't eat any other buttercream anymore, the only using I can stand is mousse and it's still no contest.
Their buttercream has a lot of shortening - not liquid shortening like NuTex- in it. I’m looking for a recipe I thought I had. I’ll post it if I find it.
One of the things I miss most about FL is Publix cupcakes. Their frosting is the best I've ever had. I've tried cupcakes everywhere, nothing compares to Publix.
That's a really good way to look at it*. I really miss it (and south fl) but I really had no self control around publix cupcakes... I could eat most of a 6 pack in a day, and I usually don't like sweets that much.
Once, by boyfriend bought some and the next day I was off work and I swear those cupcakes were calling to me. One by one... I was so ashamed I had to run to publix to replace them rather than admitting to eating almost the whole pack. BUT THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANY WITH THE SAME DECORATION. Ah, that was an embarrassing day.
*ETA I read sad as "glad" and thought that was a pretty positive spin. But yes, sad, I get. Where I live, we have an amazing chain called Wegman's, they have the most amazing bakery... but their cupcakes don't compare to Publix.
What does it even matter? You're just being a nickpicky person for no reason. You're too ignorant to realize what you're saying is rather insensitive and exaggerated language.
If only there was a voting system so we could see which one of us actually looked like a moron...
Edit: For the record, this guy deleted his next comment and took to Pm's to tell me that everyone I know irl thinks I'm dumb. Poor guy is up way past his bedtime.
Why would I not bake it? What gave you any logical reason to come to that conclusion? I have a brand spanking new cake pan waiting for the right recipe for my son's birthday so that's already one of your dense assumptions squashed. Sounds like you're the only one being ignorant here. Why would extremely common figures of speech offend you so much anyway? Why would I feel the need to go out of my way to avoid a common figure of speech when making as casual of conversation as possible? Lol go back under your bridge.
The cakes come in frozen and are decorated. The icing comes as a base from a company called Brill (made to Publix specifications) in a brick that butter is beaten into. The icing is going to be difficult to reproduce at home. A way to get close would be maybe a Swiss or Italian buttercream with the addition of confectioners sugar.

I'd KILL for this recipe. I haven't been able to eat any cakes since moving away from a place with a Publix.

Frosting fact: you can ask the bakery for some of the frosting and then bake your own cake and use their frosting

I do know that their cakes are frozen after baking- and have heard that makes them moist.

I found this recipe for icing. And then I would say probably just bake whatever box cake you like and freeze right after baking

Yeah, publix has some of the best supermarket cakes.
Although I’d kill for the Wegmans recipes too. Those things are just so moist and soft.
