Best Grocery Store Cakes

THE

White Scribbled Underline
Scribbled Arrow

To figure out which grocery store has the best cakes, we had a pro baker sample slices from six different bakeries.

Here's what our taste test uncovered.

Walmart

White Scribbled Underline

The cake layers are tall and fluffy, paired with luscious, light frosting.

Bottom line: If you’re looking for a deal, and don’t mind super sweet frosting, this will do the trick.

Kroger

White Scribbled Underline

The cake was nice and light, but had little flavor. The frosting's texture was lovely, but the flavor was a bit off.

Bottom line: If the frosting is your favorite part of a cake, skip this option.

Whole Foods

White Scribbled Underline

The cake was quite dense, but had good flavor. The frosting was silky, smooth and melts in your mouth.

Bottom line: If you don’t love the taste of butter, consider a custom frosting.

Winco

White Scribbled Underline

It was light and fluffy. The frosting wasn’t too sweet, making it a well-balanced cake for a great deal.

Bottom line: If you need a cake in a pinch, this is a great option.

Costco

White Scribbled Underline

The cake has a nice texture, but the frosting is a bit too sweet. The addition of the cheesecake mousse takes it up a notch.

Bottom line: If you have a membership, choose this option every time.

Safeway

White Scribbled Underline

Our winner! This option has light, fluffy cake texture and is paired with a luscious, well-balanced frosting.

Bottom line: A well-balanced, flavorful cake that won’t break the bank.
