As this place gets closer to its opening, is this "Bon Voyage" at Trattoria al Forno last chance of rehappening? The character breakfast was never taken off the site and it seems like a perfect time to showcase "BoardWalk new features/activations/etc.": Cake Bake Shop, Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs and characters returning to Trat.

Definitely one of the bigger Whiskey Tango Foxtrot moments for a vendor at WDW.

Cake Bake is going to have to adjust/reduce their pricing if they at all plan to survive. Unless this is the world's greatest food? Anyone have experience eating stuff from this menu?

I believe if I'm not mistaken that the prices are lower at the other Cake Bake shops....please don't quote me on that...sacre bleu!

Not by much. The crab cakes are $51 bucks at its two other locations. The Charcuterie Board is $68 buck as opposed to 78 and the Steak Frites au Poivre is $53 bucks.

The thing is: I don’t generally find Disney pastry prices to be unreasonable. Food at TSRs is pricy, but pastry from bakeries is pretty reasonable compared to what I’m used to in CT.

I won’t pay $24 for a slice of cake in NYC. I certainly won’t in WDW.

Absolutely insane. I'm in NYC and cannot think of a slice of cake that this price. Billy's slices are like $8. Even Magnolia slices (overrated, but famous) are only about $8-9. For twice the price you can nearly get a full cake from Molly's. Lady M is $12-13 or so.I guess Serendipity approaches $20, but it's not nearly worth the price.

I hope this place does terribly so others aren't influenced by the pricing.

The Cake Bake Shop. Part of the reason why they haven't opened is because they had to build their off-site kitchen/distribution center.

Looking at the menu I would think the delay was getting the toilets gold plated and encrusting the silverware with jewels....lol

I can't imagine this place succeeding in this location at these prices.

For people that want a high end meal, Flying Fish is basically next door, and it's probably the best non-V&A restaurant at Disney World. I doubt the Cake Bake Shop will be better, and it's just as expensive if not moreso.

I think they could be pretty successful with breakfast service (considering that's hard to find at Disney), but not at those prices. $18 for bacon and eggs? $9 for a cup of fruit?

And most people aren't planning to spend $30+ on a sandwich for lunch, either.

There are those that will...but it will most likely be once....and maybe that is all they care about. Maybe if you just have a $12 corn dog and a complimentary cup of tap water, you can afford the $26 slice of cake for dessert....then your lunch would only be $38 excluding tax and tip...Want fries with that Dog? it's going to be over $50 and you have to it outside on a park bench....

I was going to say the exact same thing. If I'm spending that kind of money, I'll walk 2 minutes down the boardwalk and go to the Flying Fish instead. This place is outclassed and outvalued and it hasn't even opened yet.

That's the thing. It could be of equal quality. But the fact will then become am I going to spend $44 on a Burger, fries, and a beer, or $55 for salmon and a beer? There's just no chance at similar prices, I'm taking a burger over fish, even if it's a great burger.
