    I used to microwave a slice of this cake to get the fudge hot and melty then topped it off with vanilla icecream. It was bomb.

    This is the only cake that I ever was obsessed with for my birthday. I’m going to be 60 in October and this is my favorite cake ever. I have baked most of my life and I still can’t get any cake taste as wonderful as this. I hope that in October they will be bringing them back because trust me when my family comes here for my birthday they gonna be a little bit upset when I don’t get the cake I want

      @@chrisrussell5055 I would buy this cake and cut it into 14 slices and freeze it. I would last 6 months and I could just take a slice out and thaw for an hour. I suspected this cake was made by David's Cakes, but I ordered one of those and it was not the same. Time to petition Costco to bring it back. Covid is long over and we need this cake!! ;-)

    I’m still sad about Costco discontinuing the All American Chocolate cake. I learned about the new mini version shortly after that was also discontinued. Cheesecake Factory makes a similar cake called Linda’s Fudge Cake which is also quite good but is way more expensive than the Costco cake. Linda’s Fudge Cake currently (February 2023) costs $10.50 for a single slice whereas the entire Costco cake was $16.99.

  • @sstidman
    @sstidman ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I talked to the general manager of my local Costco about this. He said there were a few reasons they discontinued the cake:
    - they sold very few of these cakes. I know that I personally only bought the cake on my birthday.
    - it was labor intensive to make
    - the price was so low that they made no money on it.
    I suggested that all these problems could be sold by making it a special order item and selling it for more. But their solution to bring it back as a mini cake was a great option, too, though now that seems to also be gone.
