Check this out before you buy a sheet cake at Costco

Cutting a cake can be a challenge. Sure there are certain knife techniques you can use to get perfect slices but let’s face it: Most of us end up with layers of misplaced filling that’s leaked out or worse uneven portions. That’s where cutting can be incredibly helpful. Ask an employee to cut your Costco cake before you pick it up. They’ll decorate it with buttercream grid lines so you don’t have the awkward moment of standing over the cake with a knife worrying about where to cut.

The only problem with requesting a scored cake at Costco is actually making the request. Costco's cake ordering system is rather outdated and whether or not your request is accepted is a matter of luck. Pre-ordering your cake online is not an option with the wholesaler and all orders must be placed in person using good old pen and paper.

One thing to keep in mind before you ask for scoring is whether you plan on having text or other designs on the cake. If you do the buttercream grid lines may disrupt your aesthetic.
