I hate when companies do something super secretive.  Like HELLO, everyone is on social media and it will come out eventually and everyone will be pissed.  Which is what exactly happened!

Seems like they really want to focus on their ROUND cakes instead.

The news first broke back in May when Costco posted a somewhat hidden statement to its Facebook page announcing the new 10-inch dessert. "Big achievements deserve a celebration! Share the love with your grad by picking up a round 10” cake at the bakery. Please note: Half-sheet cakes are currently not available to order or customize," the chain wrote, along with a video showcasing white and chocolate versions of the cake.

The store also confirmed the news to TODAY Food Tuesday in an emailed statement: "We are currently not selling our 1/2 sheet cakes at any US locations and as of right now, we have no immediate plans to bring them back. We are focusing on our smaller 10" White & 10" Chocolate Cakes that seem to be resonating with our members."
