At this point, Costco's desserts are legendary. Where else are you going to get a three-pound cookie or a four-pound pumpkin pie? Because there are so many yummy desserts on Costco's shelves, it can be hard to keep track of the store's offerings, but thanks to bloggers, it's become easier to find out about a tasty treat that you may have missed, like this lava cake that's perfect for chocolate lovers.
Look—is it not the prettiest thing you've ever seen?
Instagram user snackbetch just posted a photo of a 4-pack of Chocolate Fudge Lava Cakes. The personal cakes have a fudge center and are handmade with Colombian chocolate. Snackbetch described the cakes as being "restaurant quality" and said "they reminded me of a hot soufflé."
But while the lava cakes may seem new, they've been spotted in Costcos as early as 2017, when a blogger found them in a store in Hawaii. San Francisco based Costco Couple also spotted them at their local store that same year. The cakes have since been seen at different prices ranging from $10-$12.99.
The lava cakes are made by UK based dessert company Pots & Co, and each one comes in a reusable ceramic pot. In addition to Chocolate Fudge, the lava cakes also comes in flavors like Salted Caramel & Chocolate and Sticky Toffee. All you have to do is put them in the microwave and serve 'em hot.
