Cake Bake Shop at the BoardWalk is now open

[lowlight]

Yes but are the sodas still $8.00 a pop?

At the car dealership- "Well the undercoating is only 2k." "I don't need an undercoating, and that's too much money." "Ok we'll do the undercoating for 1k." "Deal!"

 

[WEDWDW]

The best I can explain is this, and I'm using Men as the example because frankly that's where it started from, not as some kind of chauvinistic post

Example:

A bunch of dudes are sitting around having "Bro Time" and drinking beer. Guy 1 decides to tell a story or show how he can do something super athletic. Guy 2 decides he will be a "one upper" and try to outperform or out tell guy 1's story or his feat of super athletic ability. Guy 2 starts out by saying to another guy: "Hold my Beer" as he prepares to one up....

It's basically saying "hold my beer while I prepare to wow you all....."

And the person saying "hold my beer" usually does something that gets them injured,arrested,etc.lol

 

[WEDWDW]

So we need to look at Cake Bake as the fifth Park and budget accordingly?lol

 

[Marrila]

Wow, big price drop…..too funny

The cries of the vacationers were heard.

 

[thegreatdonaldo]

Wow, I've really changed my mind now that most prices are a penny less than they were yesterday... or wait, a dollar or two MORE as well!

 

[NYCgrrl]

Wow, I've really changed my mind now that most prices are a penny less than they were yesterday... or wait, a dollar or two MORE as well!

Now let’s be fair….some of the drinks are now a dollar AND a penny less

 

[Eastern]

What about the Frose @ $24.99? $15 extra if you want he souvenir golden goblet. Makes the grey goose slushie in WS seem like a bargain.

I can't imagine ever buying a $24 cake slice. Plus tax.

Yes but are the sodas still $8.00 a pop?

Am I missing the food menu? Curious if the kids butter and noodles is still $18. Sorry @NYCgrrl, not sure why this is showing as a reply to you!

Are you telling me there’s a Grey Goose slushy in World Showcase for less than $25?

The Cake Bake Shop Lowers Prices After Viral Outcry​

The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers at Disney’s BoardWalk lowered the prices of most items following the viral outcry over its menu online.

The Cake Bake Shop lowered its prices after outcry online over its price point while being located at Walt Disney World. Though not open to the public yet, The Cake Bake Shop can be found on Disney’s BoardWalk.

When construction walls came down in early October, the initial menu and priceswere revealed for the new restaurant and bakery — leaving many Disney fans and locals shocked at the price point. As an example, these prices include $23 for an egg sandwich, cake slices for $26 each, and a $32 burger with pommes frites. Even a slice of toast was priced at $4.

There is no set opening date for The Cake Bake Shop at this time, though the restaurant continues to host private preview events for invited guests only.

The Cake Bake Shop has two other locations, both in Indiana. However, pricing for the same items across menus for those locations indicated that items are actually cheaper than they would be at Walt Disney World. For example, the Pesto Burrata found on the menu at both the Broad Ripple Village and Carmel City Center locations is priced at $28, while the dish was $34 at Disney’s BoardWalk.


As of October 22, the bakery and restaurant menus have been changed out for new ones featuring (mostly) lower prices. The Besto Burrata is now listed at $28.99. Stay tuned for a more thorough look at the changes.

A handful of menu items actually increased in price. The Pixie Fetti Birthday Cake, Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Roll Cake, and Pumpkin Chocolate Cake each went from $22 to $22.99.

Items with crab cakes included have all gone down in price…wonder if the master recipe has been changed or the food purveyor specs changed?

 

[focusondisney]

Items with crab cakes included have all gone down in price…wonder if the master recipe has been changed or the food purveyor specs changed?

I was wondering if the portion size was decreased. But could also be changed recipe… less crab & more filler. I’m disappointed several entrees (steak frites & chicken piccata) & sandwiches (tuna salad & 12 layer) my husband & would have tried are gone from the menu.

 

[Eastern]

Are you telling me there’s a Grey Goose slushy in World Showcase for less than $25?

Last time I got one it was around $17! Now it is $25?

 

[kdka421]

I find this turn of events FASCINATING (purely from a curiosity perspective). The change from whole dollar prices to the ".99" model. The outright removal of some of the most expensive menu items (charcuterie plate, steak). The drastic decrease in certain menu items (the croissant from $12 to $6, the kids menu items, etc), makes you wonder are they now accepting a tighter margin/loss leader on certain things or was the markup just that crazy to begin with?

I would love to know if they intentionally released the first menu expecting to get pushback and wanted to show they "listened", or if this was a quick adjustment after unexpected backlash.

Even though I never plan to go there, the whole saga of this place is pretty entertaining.

 

[WEDWDW]

Did they really think they could "get away" with the original prices?

Is "greedy " too strong of a word?

Cake Bake is not off to a very "sweet" start!lol

 

[momtwoboys]

Hope it doesnt last and a casual restaurant can go there. PLUS Big river spot be turned into quick serve location with all meals

 

[TwoMisfits]

I'm assuming the original kid price meals were to discourage adults from ever ordering them. Now, with the reductions, they may enforce a Disney-age level for the meals.

I noticed that (unless I missed something), the only plant-based dessert is sorbet, so this is likely not ever appearing on my stop by list in Florida when I visit family (I really thought they'd do more vegan, which yes sometimes has tree nuts I can't eat, but does in theory open up some options)...

 

[gottalovepluto]

The cries of the vacationers were heard.

Or the cries of their test subjects at these private openings were heard...

Wow, I've really changed my mind now that most prices are a penny less than they were yesterday... or wait, a dollar or two MORE as well!

My absolute favorite part of this is the items that dropped $.01. My second favorite part is pricing switching to $.99. It's like someone just had a sudden realization they're actually gonna have to try!

 

[Brian Noble]

Or the cries of their test subjects at these private openings were heard...

That's my guess too. The trial run presumably included some surveys, and they may have turned up a consistent "yeah, I would not come back for these prices."
