The 12 Best Things to Buy at the Costco Bakery
1. Costco Dessert Bars
These are brand new on the scene and wow are they good! I love the variety and how they're adorably displayed right in the package. This is a great buy for dessert that will appeal to both kids and adults. They're perfect for birthday parties and I bet they'll be popular for holiday gatherings, too.
2. Costco Bagels

3. Costco Pastries
From danishes and strudels to rugala, Costco’s pastries are a brunch host’s dream. Each bite is sweet, buttery and just the right size to keep everyone reaching for “one more.” They’re the kind of crowd-pleasing treats that make entertaining feel effortless and taste a little extra special. I will be serving the adorable Caramel Apple Strudel at all of my fall parties.
4. Costco Cupcakes
These are always special to catch in the bakery. I'm not sure there is a rhyme or reason for when they're available, but they happened to be around during my most recent Costco run. Costco cupcakes are big, bold and built for sharing. They're perfect for birthdays, school parties or anytime you need an easy dessert that wows. Each one is soft and sweet inside and piled high with frosting and those cute flat sprinkles. If you see them, grab them—you can figure out what you're celebrating in the car ride home.
5. Costco Loaf Cakes

6. Costco Bread and Rolls
The rustic boule-style breads rival the best bakeries in town. The Cranberry Walnut Loaf is amazing on a grazing board and the Rustic Italian Loaf is the perfect base for cheesy garlic bread.

7. Costco Cheesecake
Costco cheesecakes are massive, creamy and taste like something from a restaurant. I like to slice up an original cheesecake and freeze individual pieces. I take it slices as needed and top with fruit or chocolate drizzle for an instant, elegant dessert. And lucky for us, pumpkin cheesecake season is upon us! This dessert is always a staple on my Thanksgiving table. In my opinion, the cheesecakes are one of Costco’s best values.
8. Costco Cookies

9. Costco Custom Cakes
Head back over to my beloved old-school ordering kiosk and grab yourself a cake that feeds a crowd, can be customized for any occasion, is always moist and sweet—and costs less than $30. There's no limit to what you can celebrate with a custom cake from Costco. We celebrated our children's baptism with a half-sheet cake (and some chocolate chunk cookies...see #5 above!). I've also attended a wedding where the couple sliced a small cake while the caterers were hacking up a Costco sheet cake in the back, and the crowd raved! In my eyes, Costco sheet cakes have earned legendary status.

11. Costco Muffins
The oversized muffins are practically cake in disguise, and I mean that in the best way. The triple chocolate variety is a childhood favorite of mine, the blueberry and poppyseed are great, but let's take a moment for their perfect corn muffins. Slice one in half, toast it in a skillet and slather on some salted butter...baker's kiss! They all freeze beautifully, so you can ration them out one by one (or not, no judgment from me!).
