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 Lowers Prices
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 prices were revealed for the new restaurant and bakery — leaving many Disney fans and locals shocked at the price point. As an example, these prices included $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 restaurant is owned and operated by a third-party company, not by Disney.
The Cake Bake Shop has two other locations, both in Indiana. Pricing for the same items at the other two locations was cheaper than they would have originally been 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 originally listed as $34 at Disney’s BoardWalk.
As of October 22, the bakery and restaurant menus posted outside have been changed out for new ones featuring (mostly) lower prices. Some prices were only lowered by a cent but others were lowed by a few dollars. The Pesto Burrata is now listed at $28.99.
A handful of menu items actually increased in price. At the bakery, the Pixie Fetti Birthday Cake, Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Roll Cake, and Pumpkin Chocolate Cake each went from $22 to $22.99.
Here’s a full breakdown.

Won’t be a customer. I ADORE cake and love the menu items but even on vacation I try to be reasonably pampered as opposed to taken for a ride.
Ditto!
A cake shop is not on my bucket list. They will be as successful as the ESPN Club that was there prior.
And no tea service, that I can see, as was advertised. There is nothing here for me. That’s insane. Certainly not a reasonable replacement for the afternoon tea at Floridian.
I don’t understand what makes them think that anyone will pay that.
And if permitted to operate, just proves that Disney is no longer for families. I see a lot of trip cancellations in my future.
Wow.
Baby step in the (mostly) right direction. Still WILL NOT be going there because the prices are still insane.
Mildly insulting that some items were reduced by 1 cent, like that’s an acceptable decrease and no one would note the insignificant change lol
I still think the prices are still ridiculously overpriced. You nocked some things down by one cent other things that you had listed that were $22 are now 2299. Yes some things were taken down by 4 to 5 dollars off in pricing. But, $8.99 for a glass of tea. Your cakes slices are $22 and over but, yet back home her restaurants for a glass of tea is $4 and cake slices are under $20 in fact, most of them run from the $17-$18 a slice. So you want to price gouge the good people of Florida and also families who work hard to bring their families here on vacation to Disney so you can overcharge them because it’s a theme park. Shame on you. Also, do you know that the Disney food price is three times higher than the amount of inflation that was on the Disney Food blog? Why can’t the state get you all for food gouging like they do gas gouging
I still wouldn’t pay these prices. I can buy an entire pie for what they’re charging for a slice. They’re trying to take advantage of Disney guests.
OMG! $22+ for a piece of cake? All coffees went up $2? If I want a piece of cake, I’ll go to Gideon’s where I can get 2-3 pieces for what they charge for just 1!
