Costco Brings Back Beloved Chocolate Cake After 5-Year Absence

In October 2025, Costco fans were delighted to discover the retailer had introduced a new Chocolate Fudge Cake that bears a striking resemblance to a fan-favorite dessert that was quietly discontinued 5 years ago.

The new cake is being compared to the All American Chocolate Cake, which disappeared from Costco's bakery shelves back in 2020. Costco expert Laura Jayne Lamb, who runs the popular @costcohotfinds Instagram account, claims the Chocolate Fudge Cake is "almost the exact same cake" as its predecessor, save for the lack of chocolate shavings and frosting piping.

While Costco has not officially confirmed whether the two cakes are one and the same, fans are hopeful the new Chocolate Fudge Cake is a return of the beloved All American Chocolate Cake. The $25 four-layer confection has generated significant buzz on social media, with many Costco enthusiasts eagerly awaiting the chance to indulge in the familiar flavor.

The introduction of the Chocolate Fudge Cake comes on the heels of another recent bakery debut that caused quite a stir - Costco's new Carrot Cake, which includes the controversial addition of raisins. As Costco continues to evolve its baked goods offerings, it seems the retailer's loyal customers remain just as passionate about their favorite treats as ever.
