Best Gluten Free cake I have had!
Bought this Yellow Cake for the first time this week. It is the best gluten free cake I have ever tasted. Checked the ingredients two times to be sure that it is gluten free. Tender, moist and flavorful.

I wish they would sell the icing.
I had to stop buying this because it doesn’t last a day in my house 🌳💨
But I recently bought 6 of them and added fresh strawberries and made a layer cake for a fellow Gfree buddies bday and he was extremely gratuitous

Betty Crocker’s Chocolate Icing is very very similar to this icing! Which is why i love this cake so much because yellow cake and betty crocker frosting is my FAVE

Yep these are delicious and give me flashbacks to when I was a kid and my mom would make Betty Crocker yellow cake with chocolate frosting!

Tried it for the first time yesterday, and it didn't even last 24 hours. Yummy!

Their muffins are also so good. Add frosting to the chocolate ones and it’s a cupcake

It’s sooooo good. I hope they come out with other flavors, even seasonal ones.

Highly recommend it with coffee ice cream, so that the ice cream gets melty and soaks through the cake.

Have they cleared up the CC issues yet? Every single time I've eaten a TJs product, I'm dying 24 hours later.

The cakes and muffins come from Antonina’s bakery, which is a fully gluten free facility. I can’t speak for the other GF items. Not sure what would be triggering a reaction.

Oh wow so TJ white label for Antonina!!! I'm glad to hear that's a clean facility.

Well over the past 2or 3 years, its been many things- not necessarily this specific item, but even things like the TJs Salsa I reacted to 8 years after this was posted and then found this article. After I stopped buying anything at TJs except raw fruit and vegetables, I've felt even better.

Really? I'm a pretty sensitive celiac and I've always been perfectly fine eating TJs stuff :(

Thank you. Fortunately, I am only Gluten Sensitive. I hope you can find other things you enjoy.

Love this cake but it only lasts hours in my house. Also their GF Chocolate Chunk with sea salt cookies. Soooo good.

These are dangerous 😂
I bought one and took a small corner piece and decided that it wasn't enough. (Then proceeded to do this 3 more times until it was half gone by the next day) 😭

The best GF cake. My Gf son and I could eat this in one sitting. He’s requested it for his birthday!

Yeah, it's tasty. Also their muffins are essentially cupcakes. Chocolate is great, but the strawberry is my favorite.

You know what I really wanted to like this. It just didn't have any flavor in the cake. But the chocolate on top was divine and so I just ate that part.

Agreed, I thought this was overall mid but I understand the convenience factor of a premade cake is huge in our world

u/AussieAlexSummers 15h ago
Have you tried their GF cupcakes yet? I'm curious to see what you think of them.
I've yet to try this cake, although many people seem to recommend it. But the cupcakes are yummy.

u/Mbaker1201 15h ago
Next time I go, if I find them. This was the first GF premade item I have tried there. Thanks for the tip.

u/AussieAlexSummers 11h ago
Sorry I think they are called muffins not cupcakes. I just remembered that. I get the double chocolate ones. But have tried the other GF ones. The coffee cake one is pretty good. Well, they all are pretty good.

They always make a lot of us sick. So many people said that before - all of us can't eat them.

u/AussieAlexSummers 11h ago
Sorry, I should've put OP in the question. It was meant for OP. I know that there are people in this group who said it affects them negatively. But since the OP was ok with this TJ product, I was wondering if OP tried the muffins as well.

u/scoschooo 11h ago
people should be told that the cupcakes make a lot of us sick. At least warned. That is why I said that.

Ok I saw this the other day and was so excited! I resisted the urge to buy, but now I might need to go back and pick one up….

u/Apart-Pepper-8136 14h ago
I agree! I just had it last week, I am beyond stoked that they have an equally delicious gf option of the mini sheet cakes!
