Costco quietly stopped selling the $20 half-sheet cakes across its U.S. stores over the past month.
Instead, the Costco bakery is pointing customers toward its 10-inch round cakes as a substitute.
The decision also coincides with a recommendation from health experts to avoid large gatherings in light of COVID-19.
A half-sheet cake feeds around 50 people, while the 10-inch round cakes feed around a dozen.
