As I was searching for birthday cakes for my upcoming teen daughters’ birthdays, my sister let me in on a little secret birthday hack she has been using:
You can get ridiculously cute custom cakes and cupcakes from Walmart for only $15. I honestly didn’t believe her until I tried it myself — I ordered a custom cake for my daughters and was able to choose the frosting color, piping design, filling, and cake flavors, and even with some custom add-ons, I spent less than $20.
I was amazed that I had never realized how great Walmart’s custom cake bakery section could be. I did some digging and found some of their other ready-to-go birthday cakes that all cost less than $15.
Disclaimer: The birthday cakes may differ by location, of course, and the $15 price is for a 6-inch cake, which is designed to serve up to 12 people.

Perfectly Princess Round Cake
This is one of the birthday cakes that absolutely blew me away, especially the fact that it only cost $15. It’s so pretty, and all the princess detailing is something that would have made my daughters so happy in their younger years.
I can see this birthday cake being perfect for a first birthday party, or any princess-loving child. And of course, the included tiara and magic wand are magical touches for the birthday girl!
Mermaid Round Cake
Speaking of cakes I am blown away by, how incredible is this mermaid and underwater-themed cake? It comes complete with aquatic detailing like a mermaid tail, sea horse, turtle, bubbles, coral, and sparkly accents.
Not only that, but the $15 price includes free custom lettering, so you can customize the birthday message you want written on top — and choose the color!
Bluey Round Cake
You have to have a Bluey birthday cake for the little Bluey lover in your life! Honestly, who doesn’t love Bluey?
This cake comes complete with all the beloved Bluey characters, including sisters Bluey and Bingo and their parents, Bandit and Chili.
Minecraft Round Cake
The Minecraft movie was all I heard about in my house for a while, so it’s only fitting that a Minecraft lover in yours would eat this cake right up.
I will not pretend to know anything about Minecraft, but the cake does include some cool removable figurines that the birthday kid could keep and play with long after the party is over.
Unicorn Round Cake
All of my girls went through a big unicorn phase, so we bought this Walmart custom unicorn birthday cake for several years in a row, and it’s always been a hit. I’m always so impressed by the detailing and custom touches that really make it feel like a much more expensive cake.
Plus, having personally sampled it, I can attest that it’s delicious too!
Let's Dig In Round Cake
How downright cute would this cake be for the little tractor lover in your life? It comes with two toy tractor toppings and plenty of candy malt “rocks” to complete the busy worksite. Plus, you can choose your custom message to be written on the cake.
