Does Costco here carry things like ibuprofen and acetaminophen? The pharmacy section only seems to have vitamins.
They used to have Panadol(acetaminophen), but I havenât seen it for a month or two

My wife is chicken-crazy, so we get ours for âfreeâ, LOL. The most expensive free eggs youâll ever see.

That is the way I feel when I make bread. My wife is like you made that for 20 nt. Three hours of fucking about and waiting around. Saved 30 nt. not bad.
Theyâll deliver it to your home?

Sorry, I shouldâve said 24h to make your cake.
You have to order and pick up at the store.
There are 20 cakes to chose from:

They are great value to be honest. Looks like you can phone in an order with all the numbers at the bottom.

I agree, had them more than once and always enjoyed , but the size is huge, suitable if you have a whole class of kids, if its for a small family then its too much.

They freeze well enough. Slice âem up and package them individually. Thaw them out to enjoy for the next fewâŚmonths?

Thanks, I didnât know that!
How do you unfreeze them for consumption?
Their cakes are terrible. 90% Foamy frosting (weird texture) and bland flavorless cake underneath.
It is a Taiwanese cake. Most in this price range taste like that. But the difference is that this is twice the size.
I usually peel the frosting off (so it doesnât melt) and stick it in the oven at something below 200 for an undetermined amount of time (checking it every five minutes or so?). Itâs usually half frozen a number of tries before I get it properly unfrozen.
I donât recommend the microwave because that will make it chewy (though it works well for the cinnamon rolls that Costco doesnât sell anymore).
I suppose you could defrost it in the counter too, if you have time.

Are they not the same ones sold in the US? The ones in the US are so loved that people use them for their wedding cakes (lol, or is that just the good price?). Then again, I know people who are properly trained bakers that have some fun stories to tell about grocery stores cakes. Namely that the frosting comes in a 5 gal tubs.
You have successfully described store-bought cake! 2x so in Taiwan. No one really likes it, itâs just there because of culture and stuff.
@RickRoll Thanks, thatâs really helpful. Do you remember how much they cost? If they come close to 85c Iâll get that instead. I donât know how to do custom orders anywhere else.

I hate 85c cake. I couldnât even finish the piece I had. And Iâll eat anything. Costco is better than that.

I may be mistaken, but I think we paid NTD390 when we got one last month.
