The thing about Costco is, you can never trust a trip to result in a cart full of only the items on your list. At the very least, a stop at the food court is always in order—but that doesn’t even account for the laundry list of baked goods, sweet snacks and frozen treats just waiting to be discovered. Whether you’re heading to your local warehouse this week for grocery essentials or simply have a hankering for something sweet, we’ve got the perfect seasonal indulgence to toss in your cart. Anyone who likes a rich, decadent dessert to cap off the day need look no further than Costco’s new Crème Brûlée Bar Cake—a $19 find that’s light, creamy and utterly irresistible. 😋😋 SIGN UP to get delicious recipes, handy kitchen hacks & more in our daily Pop Kitchen newsletter 🍳🍔 Crème Brûlée Bar Cake, $18.99 at Costco Spotted today by @costcohotfinds and immediately shared online to spread the word, Costco’s Crème Brûlée Bar Cake is just starting to pop up in select warehouse locations, so keep your eyes peeled at a store near you. At $18.99, this 38-ounce behemoth of a treat is a new bakery addition and not guaranteed to stick around for long. For that reason alone, we recommend indulging if you find it at your store, and maybe grab two so you can toss one in the freezer for later. Made with soft, moist vanilla sponge cake, Crème Brûlée mousse, a crunchy brûlée layer, white buttercream and finished with a whipped topping sprinkled with golden sugar accents, this light and airy treat is as delicious as it looks. For those new to this unique French dessert, it’s known for balancing creamy and crunchy textures and is often lighter than traditional cheesecakes or custard desserts, making it feel indulgent without being overly heavy. Perfect for special occasions such as holiday dinners, birthday parties, office get-togethers or even a solo late-night treat, Crème Brûlée cakes offer the best of both worlds: the rich, caramelized flavor of classic crème brûlée paired with the soft, fluffy texture of cake. What Shoppers Are Saying While we would love you to take our word for it and have you toss this sucker in your cart no questions asked, the reality is, it’s already garnering plenty of positive feedback online. And when you sift through the usual couple comments claiming its overdone with ingredients, you find the relatable feedback we’re all searching for: “I live alone and buying a whole cake is really good for your mental health despite what you may think,” one fan joked, while another added, “Costco bar cakes are my weakness and I will be getting this.”
