We’ve shelled out the BIG bucks at The Cake Bake Shop in Disney World, and people love to ask us…is it worth it?!
The Cake Bake Shop Bakery!
This restaurant is known for having high prices, but the vibes are simply stunning. If it’s out of the budget to do a full meal here, we like to recommend stopping by the bakery next door to grab a few of their sweet treats. They may be pricey, but there’s also a chance that you could find the BEST treat of your vacation here. And we’ve got a new contender!
We stopped by The Cake Bake Shop Bakery to try out the NEW Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Roll Cake for $22 a slice! It’s rather massive — six layers of pumpkin ginger ckae with cinnamon sugar, cream cheese filling, vanilla buttercream, crystallized ginger, and a little white chocolate pumpkin on top.
She’s a beaut!
Unfortunately, the little pumpkin pal on top of the cake came rolling around inside the to-go box instead of on top, but we were able to reattach him for photos (poor lil fella!). But let us tell you…that cake was YUMMY. It’s moist, thick, and lightly spiced with a consistency that reminded us of pumpkin bread. There are pieces of ginger scattered throughout that add little bursts of spice and really level up the flavors.
Our slice!
Overall it’s incredibly autumnal in flavor with cinnamon and the crystallized ginger coming through most prominently. That cinnamon, paired with the cream cheese filling, creates the cinnamon roll flavor. It’s really the best of both worlds in that regard. Like pumpkin bread and a cinnamon roll had a ginger-spiced baby!
Look at those layers!
The cream cheese and the vanilla buttercream help balance out the spices so it’s not too overpowering, but if you love a warm and cozy fall treat, this will be right up your alley. It’s quite rich and very shareable. Also, it’s on the regular menu (not listed as the monthly flavor) so we’re hoping it stays around for a little while.
The pumpkin and the frosting on top.
This wouldn’t be for you if you dislike strongly spiced treats or the punchiness of ginger, but we have a feeling it’s going to be fairly popular with everyone else. This bakery has a wide variety of treats in general, so it’s high on our must-try list during your visit.
