Ordered my walmart wedding cake

Future, on December 10, 2011 at 8:13 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 18

Just wanted to share. I know there's been some discussion here regarding grocery store cakes. We went to our local walmart supercenter today and ordered our cake. They can customize it to whatever design we want (ours will be musical notes surrounding the cake) and you can have different fillings and different cakes (white, marble or chocolate) per tier. We had a tasting and all their flavors were really good, especially the lemon and bavarian cream, as well as raspberry. We got a 3 tiered round cake that serves 134 people, and our bill is only $125! I was so happy. They do not deliver, but they use stands inside the cake to make sure the layers don't slide when you transport it, and the lady assured us they've had no problems with cakes slipping. Luckily the store is less than 5 mins from where FI will be getting ready, so his best man can pick it up and it'll be ready to go, no assembly needed. So if you're on a budget, consider checking out your local store....

    They have 3 cake decorators at ours and when I looked at their cakes on display they were all well-made. And the cakes we tasted were very delicious. They also do groom's cake's. Goodluck!

    I have found that walmart has some of the best cakes. They use the frosting that I love the most and their ice creams are amazing, too! =]

    Congrats!! If our cake wasn't included with our catering, we would have gotten a Walmart cake too! They do a wonderful job with cakes!

    Lucky with all the flavors! A friend of mine is getting hers from our Walmart and they only give her the choce of chocolate or white. But we always get our sons birthday cakes from there and I agree they are yummy.

    I have honestly never even thought about WalMart for a wedding cake! I will go check them out though because that is about 50 bucks less than if we go with our caterer!!! I think I would only be nervous about the transfer...Murphys Law lol...I would be that *one* person that had a problem getting it to my venue!! Good luck! Can't wait to see pics!

    Thanks ladies! We're on a budget so getting a great cake at a steal definitely makes me happy. I edited the original post and posted a pic of what the cake will look like. Smiley smile

    Since I work as a WalMart cake decorator posts like this make me happy Smiley smile My best advice would just be to ask plenty of questions, give them A LOT of details on what you want, and if you aren't sure ask them for pictures of cakes they've done before, they may not be wedding cakes but it'll give you a general idea of their skill level.

    I am really stressing about finding a reasonably priced cake for our wedding that is only 3 weeks away, I am going to place the order tomorrow, I was going to stick with Publix, but now I am not sure.
