The answer is “right.” Walmart is whipping up an incredible amount of cakes for its customers. Per Yahoo Finance, Walmart sells a lot of cakes. In fact, the company says they are responsible for one out of every four cakes that we are buying in the United States. Can you imagine how much eggs, sugar, butter, flour, and milk that is! And Walmart is sitting on some fascinating trivia to back up this claim. Kinna Thomas, who has the awesome and coveted title of senior buying manager for cakes at Walmart, told Yahoo Finance, “We have some crazy, crazy statistics. We sell enough sheet cakes to circle the earth and the equator. That’s lots and lots of cake that we have.”
Thomas also shared, “As far as our icing is concerned, you know those shell-borders that go on the edge of birthday cakes? We use enough icing to make that border from the earth to the moon and back.” You can even customize and order your cake from the Walmart bakery online using either your phone, tablet, or computer, which is such a blessing when your workweek is too busy to get to the store. Thomas also shared that the retail giant also does two and three-tier cakes for weddings, baby showers, or whatever your celebration might be.
