Did you know there’s a secret menu at your favorite fast-food chains? Yup—McDonald's has a bunch of hidden gems (like cotton candy soda?? Yes, please), and so does Starbucks. I’ve been a bit of a secret-menu expert for a while, but I was shocked to find out it’s not just fast food that has these hidden finds.
Apparently, Walmart has a ton of secret items too, and TikTok creator Lora McLaughlin is giving us the inside scoop. In a now-viral video from her “Bougie on a Budget” series, she spills the tea on Walmart’s best-kept secret: a $20 cupcake bouquet.
So, what’s in this bouquet? “Six chocolate cupcakes and six vanilla, all with buttercream frosting in every shade of pink,” she says. Not only is it super cute, but she says it actually tastes really good. (Unpopular opinion: some of the best cakes I’ve had are from grocery stores, so this doesn’t surprise me at all.)
What I think is so awesome about this is that it’s both a dessert and a centerpiece. Like, imagine having this edible bouquet smack in the middle of your dinner table? It's giving luxury but for only $20.
And, of course, TikTok went wild over this. So many people rushed to comment about the new find. “Ordered one for Easter—so pretty!” one user wrote. “At my Walmart, it was only $12.99. I couldn’t bake and ice a dozen cupcakes for that price… Deal!” Another said, “This is fantastic! Such a statement piece without breaking the bank.”
Others are calling it the perfect find for birthdays and Mother’s Day. “I just ordered it for my mom for Mother’s Day. Hope it turns out great 🤞,” one commenter shared.
Even if you don’t have a special occasion, you still need to grab one. Like McLaughlin said, “A box of happiness for 20 bucks. What more could you want?”
