"Bimbo Panqué Pound Cake came in last due to an unpleasantly artificial flavor. It had a cloying sweetness and a chemical flavor that dominated our taste buds and screamed 'factory-made.' Not only did the taste of these sad, pre-sliced poundcakes put us off, but the dry, crumbly texture just added insult to injury."
"One-star customer reviews from Walmart customers deemed Bimbo Panqué Pound Cake 'dry and bland,' with one customer saying that 'the cake falls apart when you pick it up,' which was similar to our experience. While Bimbo may have most competitors beat in terms of price, we wouldn't even eat this sad pound cake if it were free."
A taste test evaluation of eight store-bought pound cakes ranked Bimbo Panqué Pound Cake in last place. The cake exhibited an unpleasantly artificial flavor with cloying sweetness and a chemical taste that dominated the palate, lacking the homestyle quality of competitors. The texture was dry and crumbly, falling apart when handled. While Bimbo, a Mexican brand with significant U.S. presence owning Sara Lee and Entenmann's, offers competitive pricing and varieties with pecans, chocolate chips, and raisins, these additions cannot compensate for the poor foundation. Customer reviews from Walmart corroborated these findings, describing the cake as dry and bland.
