"Not only that, but some people are also claiming that Walmart makes a better version than the coffee chain, with one TikToker going so far as saying, "Starbucks may be in trouble with this one." During a side-by-side comparison of the birthday cake pops, the reviewer called Starbucks' version "solid" but said the cake was "doughy" and the "outer shell could've had more of a crunch.""
"These options are similar to Starbucks' two most popular cake pop flavors, but a box of four costs just $5.67, or $1.42 a pop. On the other hand, Walmart's cake pop had a good crunch, while the interior was "cakey without being dry" and "soft and moist enough to not be gummy or chewy." While both had good vanilla flavor, the social media user concluded Walmart's was better, with a more "high-quality" taste reminiscent of a vanilla bean or French vanilla."
