The $6 Walmart Bakery Item I Wait All Year for Is Finally Back

A must-have for all fall festivities.

The Walmart bakery section is completely slept on. I know that many Walmart shoppers frequent the store for low, everyday prices on name-brand items, but Walmart's private label deserves its flowers, too. So, if you're ready to give Walmart's store-brand bakery items the recognition they deserve, let me turn you onto the best item at the Walmart bakery—because while most of you have been shopping at Costco’s bakery, I’ve been buying Walmart’s cakes, cookies, and other desserts for years.

My all-time favorite Walmart bakery item is produced under the store’s Freshness Guaranteed private label and only comes around once a year because it’s a seasonal product—but it’s finally its time to shine. I’m, of course, talking about Walmart’s Pumpkin Cake Roll.

The Pumpkin Cake Roll at Walmart

I love Walmart's Pumpkin Cake Roll so much that I'll buy it the first chance I get—even if that means before my pumpkin spice season has truly started (a.k.a. when the weather actually turns).

Some of you might be thinking, why not just make your own pumpkin roll at home? The answer is I do every year during the holidays, but let’s face it, it’s a tricky recipe and never turns out anywhere near as good as my grandma’s used to, despite the fact that I use her recipe.

So, instead of butchering my grandma’s recipe and wasting time stressing over rolling the cake without any cracks, whenever I want a slice of pumpkin roll, I just buy Walmart’s until it comes time to make my one homemade pumpkin roll a year. Though, I could probably pass Walmart’s off as homemade, too, since it’s the closest thing to homemade I’ve ever tasted from a store—and even from some local bakeries.

Walmart’s Pumpkin Cake Roll has everything from the moist pumpkin-spiced cake and cream cheese filling down to the dusting of confectioners’ sugar. And with a price tag of just $5.84, there’s truly so much to love about this bakery offering. My one and only complaint is that I can’t get it all year round.

The Freshness Guaranteed Pumpkin Cake Roll is officially back in Walmart stores now. Typically, you can find it through the rest of the year, which means months and months of your pumpkin roll fill.

And, if you can remember, throwing one (or a few) of Walmart’s Pumpkin Cake Rolls in the freezer at the end of the season will keep you pretty happy during the non-pumpkin months.
