I Hate This, But Costco Cakes Taste Good!
Decorating By berryblondeboys Updated 12 May 2007 , 1:19am by Nadya
Their decorating stinks (too rushed), but the buttercream is light and not too sweet and the filling is a very light strawberry and the cake moist... I was soooooo not happy that I had to admit, that yes, this mass marketed cake is yummy! Plus, someone brought in Madeleins to church last week and they were PHENOMENAL... the guy said, he is a Madeleine snob and the best he's had in the US are from COSTCO!!! Cripes... a 14x20 cake was only $19.99 and it was filled... UGH... good thing it looked "ickey" or else I would wonder why any cake decorator was in business!

Yes, I too like Costco cakes. They are delicious and so cheap! I've found that the chocolate Rich's Bettercreame is very similar to the Costco chocolate filling - so I use that a lot now!! You're right about the decorating, though...
In fact, I remember being at Costco right at closing and someone wanted to have something written on a cake. Since it was closing, the bakery couldn't do it, but they provided the customer with a bag of icing and a plastic tip so they could write on the cake themselves!
