Fantabulous Wedding Cake!!! The Best Cake Around!!

I would like to let every one know that this cake is the bomb! It was beautiful, decorated perfectly and might I add the most delicious cake I've tasted in a long time. Everyone was raving about how moist and perfect it was. It went with the wedding decor and blended right in. I would recommend this cake to any and everyone!

50th Anniversary Celebration cake

Everyone at our 50th anniversary party loved the cake and kept asking where we got it. It was so pretty . Sam’s really came through for us and the price was great! Highly recommend.

Amazing custom cakes

Beautifully decorated and delicious! We ordered it for our 50th (white cake) and ordered the chocolate sheet cake for folks who prefer that. They both looked and tasted great and we would highly recommend Sam's Club for your custom cakes!

Beautiful cake!

Beautiful cake! Got lots of compliments from our guests. I bought this for my husband’s 60th birthday. I requested they leave front plate off as I was going to use decorative balls instead. Looked beautiful! Cale was fresh and moist.

Good but could be better

This cake could be beautiful, however the top layer is actually the edible paper. For some reason whoever decorated the cake put the seam of the two strips of paper to meet in the front of the cake which looked terrible. I also didn't much care for the way the paper came across in real life. The decorative plate in the front with the writing I had ordered to be put on it fell off twice. This could have been because it was 90 degrees outside and maybe the cake got hot during transport, but I don't believe it was anchored properly. I didn't see any icing on the back which would have kept it attached to the cake. The second time it fell off I had to completely discard it because the icing writing was completely smeared so my daughters name was nowhere on the cake. That was disappointing. I was able to add some other cake decorations I had to disguise the seams and to hide where the plate had fallen off since it messed up the sprinkles there. People said the cake tasted great though. Overall I think if done better this cake could be really nice and of course it is much cheaper and quicker than going to a bakery.

Shocked and Disappointed

"I ordered a 60th birthday cake for my sister Maria from Sam's Club online, and picked it up on January 24th. The cake was nicely boxed, and I didn't open it until the day of the party. To my shock and embarrassment, the cake was addressed as 'Happy Birthday Caleb!' This was a huge disappointment, especially since I had focused my time on making a homemade present instead of baking a cake. I was too far from Sam's Club to return it, and I couldn't even tell the kids what flavors the cake was. This mix-up really affected our celebration."

Not worth the price

Horrible. Bought this cake for my parents 51st anniversary party and was missing the bottom piece to write on so they wrote on the top. Wrote the wrong date so they had to fix it. Which made it look even more messy on the top. Tried contacting them. No one called me back or answered my calls. Called for a week straight and nothing. Will not buy big expensive cakes from them ever again!

Very sloppy work

I ordered this for my daughter’s 12th birthday and I was very disappointed. The last couple of cake from Sam’s have been very sloppy work. Fondant falling off, not very smooth icing, uneven all the way around with the sprinkles, and the layers were uneven causing it to tilt significant.
