The Taste Test
The Babypalooza team ordered a cake from Bake Me a Wish to see if the sweet treat would live up to the hype.
The verdict: Priced around $44.99, you’re going to pay much more than you would for a cake of the same size from your local grocer. But what the cake lacked in size it made up for in taste. “It may have been the best cake I’ve ever had,” says one Babypalooza editor. “A large slice wasn’t needed for complete satisfaction.”
A cake from Bake Me a Wish can be a fun special occasion treat for a birthday celebration, for a mom-to-be in your life, or for yourself!
