    ‘Amazing’ New Mini Cakes From Costco Leave Shoppers Drooling

    Fans of the Costco wholesale chain of stores are probably accustomed to the outlet’s ‘big’ signature. In yet another development, the wholesaler’s bakery section recently unveiled giant cupcakes.

    This is probably another reason for shoppers to visit the wholesaler’s bakery section during their next visit. 

    Unveiling of a New Bakery Item 

    In a publicity post on Instagram, Costco’s fan account @costcohotfinds states that the new pastry introduction “tastes exactly like a 10-inch round cake.” So, while these new bakery items are indeed cupcakes, they taste like signature Costco cakes.

    The distinguishing aspect of these new mini-cakes is their colorful confetti sprinkles and buttercream.

    Positive Feedback From Fans of the Mini Cakes  

    The mini cakes come in a pack of six and cost $7.99. Costco fans have not stopped sharing on social media how good these mini cakes are. Some shoppers also added that those mini cakes are not entirely new, as the wholesaler once offered the item some time ago.

    In response to the @costcohotfinds Instagram post, one user said, “Got them, they are amazing and HUGE.” 

    Customer Review is Very Important in Business Development 

    The party celebrating the new Costco release was not limited to Instagram alone, as some Reddit users posted a series of positive reviews about the mini cakes.

    One Reddit user shared that they loved the new item from Costco’s bakery section. Another commended the just-right amount of frosting used to dress the cake.  

    Fans Ask for Flavor Variants in One Pack 

    However, some reviewers have a bone to pick, which Costco may want to look into. It happens that the six-piece pack of mini cakes comes with either white or chocolate buttercream as a topping.

    However, customers wonder if Costco could sell the mini cakes with the two variants of toppings in a pack of six. 

    Other Cupcake Variants   

    Cupcakes are not strange items to die-hard fans of the chain. The wholesaler always has a variety of yummy items for sale during every day of operation.

    Some of the most popular cupcake variants with Costco fans are “All American” chocolate and carrot. For shoppers with kids, a pack of mini cakes will make the trip worthwhile for the lads. 

    Hello to the Cinnamon Chip Bisconie Bites 

    Costco has recently commenced an all-out campaign to introduce new items from their bakeries, and their mini cakes are just one of the yummy delicacies in the lineup.

    Another item that has mesmerized customers’ palates is the Cinnamon Chip Bisconie Bites. This is a hybrid of scones and biscotti, with crystal sugar and flavored baking chips thrown into the mix. For just $8.99, customers can walk away with a 42-piece pack of Bisconie Bites.

    What’s an Orange Dreamsicle Cheesecake?   

    Another new addition to the bakery items is the Orange Dreamsicle Cheesecake. This unique cheesecake formulation is prepared by mixing a batter of orange vanilla cheesecake.

    The Dreamsicle is huge, weighing about five pounds and selling for $22.99 apiece. Of course, hardly anyone will make wholesale purchases of that; one should be enough for the family.

    Does Costco Have Small Cakes? 

    Costco is known not only for its cheap wholesale prices but also for its mini cakes. These cakes look like cupcakes, but they are way better and heavier than those. The average mini cake weighs close to a half pound.

    Now, if the mini cake does not suit your purpose, say for a small birthday party, you can buy one of two special–order cakes, a 10-inches or a half-sheet cake.

    How Many Calories Are in a Costco Raspberry Mini Cake?  

    A review by Shipt suggests one serving of Costco mini raspberry cake contains 360 calories. Consequently, downing a pack of this delicacy in a sitting amount to consuming 2,160 calories at a go!

    To give some perspective, the Cleveland Clinic suggests that the average person burns between 1,300 and 2,000 calories a day. So, if you eat anything other than a pack of cupcakes in a single day, weight gain is inevitable.

    How To Store Costco Mini Cakes?  

    Costco cakes are often delivered fresh as they are baked per order. Nonetheless, it is common knowledge that cakes have a short shelf life. So, the best bet is to store leftovers away in a fridge.

    The fridge will not immortalize your Costco dessert but will keep the cake for between three to seven days.

    What Size Is a Costco Cake?    

    The biggest cake size that the wholesaler offers for sale is called half-sheet cakes. These have dimensions of 12 by 16 inches. Half-sheet cakes are so big that they could feed 48 people.

    The wholesaler also sells half-pounders, mini cakes, cupcakes, and several sizes in between.
