Sam’s Club’s New Cookie Cakes Have Its Customers Running To Stores

I’ve been thinking a lot about cookie butter, and how it seems to be everywhere right now (McDonald’s is even getting in on the action). And I’ve been thinking a lot about Oreos, and how you can use them in recipes. I’m also usually thinking about cake – which is just kind of a pastime for me, and a latent obsession – and, as it is my literal job here at Sporked, I’m frequently spending time considering Sam’s Club and its latest bakery section drops.

Well, this week, a new item at the intersection of all of these things arrived. I’m not the only person who feels like it’s tailor-made for them, either. Sam’s Club’s new cookie cakes could be a big hit this holiday season.

Sam’s Club Member’s Mark Cookie Lovers’ Cake Duo

Sam’s Club has just debuted its new Member’s Mark Cookie Lovers’ Cake Duo in its bakery aisle, and these two little cakes are as cute as a button. In each pack, you get:

• A Cookies & Cream Cake, made with cookies & cream pastry cream, a chocolate ganache center, chocolate cookie crumbs, whipped cream, and mini chocolate sandwich cookies (basically Oreos by any other name) on top. 
• A Cookie Butter Cake, consisting of layers of cinnamon cake, cookie butter pastry cream, a cookie butter center, Speculoos cookie pieces, whipped cream, Speculoos cookie crumbs, and mini Speculoos sandwich cookies. 

The Cookies Lovers’ Cake Duo costs $13.67, which does feel a lot for two cakes – but it’s worth pointing out that they weigh in at a pound each. It’s also worth pointing out that these are absolutely crammed with stuff, and all of those tasty ingredients add up. You can always share them amongst a few friends and split the cost, we guess. If you want to. If you can bear doing so. 

Gimme! Gimme!

Sam’s Club’s new cake pair has caused quite a stir in the store’s community, and these are broadly being received with good – very good, in fact – graces. “So nice of them to make me breakfast and lunch,” said one customer on @samsclubfavorites’ post about the cakes. Other people in the comment section who had already tried these cakes said that they hit the spot, with a good moistness to them (although one person did mention that the cookie butter flavor was a little underpowered, but that could just be a personal taste preference; others said it was right on the money). 

So, Sam’s Club is the latest to fall to the cookie butter trend sweeping the world. Now we just need a snickerdoodle cake, and it’ll be fully on board with this season’s big flavors. Hey, I’m not complaining: There’s a reason why they’re so popular this year.
