Cake Bake Shop at the BoardWalk is now open

I would never do this, as I would NEVER share cake :rotfl:I felt sick just writing this. It might take me a few days to finish it but-- hey breakfast for the next few days.
Not trying to push you to share against your will, but I did want to note that a lot of the high end bakeries don’t use preservatives— I’m a hoarder and will try to stretch out my cake or cupcake enjoyment and often by day 3 it’s dry and sad.
 
The pricing is crazy! One one hand, a few things (very few) are just slightly above WDW prices-fountain drinks are $4.50 generally at WDW, $5 at the Bake Shop; Fudge is $5.50 at Zuri's sweet shop, $6 at the Bake Shop. But then you get to the pies-
$20+ for pie? Is that for the whole pie or just one piece?
The menu shows fountain drinks at $8.00 not 5
 
Picture a bunch of folks standing around, chilling & drinking, making some mundanely questionable life decisions. Suddenly some genius says “Hold my beer!” and inevitably proceeds to outstupid all who came before him.
Pluto summed it up well, but I think of it as “ok, I’ve seen what you did [usually also bad judgment], take my drink as I proceed to do something even more breathtakingly reckless and dumb.”
 
What does that expression mean? I don't understand it at all.
I think of "hold my beer" as meaning "I can top that." But it's something ill-advised.

So a person/organization does something which you think is ill-advised.

Then a second person/organization does something different which you also think is ill-advised. It's like they heard about what the first person/organization did, and they think they can top it.

Edit: But after I typed this, I realize that other people explained it better. Oh, well.

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....."
 

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.
