Paula Deen Serves Up New Affordable, Quality Baked Goods Line For Walmart Reuters America's Premier Celebrity Cook Teams With America's Premier Retailer For Line of Dessert Bars And Pies, Just In Time For Labor Day Weekend THOMASVILLE, Ga., Sept. 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Paula Deen, America's Premier Celebrity Cook, today announced the launch of a new, exclusive baked goods line with Walmart, just in time for Labor Day Weekend. The line, which will initially serve up a series of pies from Apple Crunch to traditional fudge, will be available this week at Walmart stores coast to coast. In keeping with Deen's long-standing tradition of quality and affordability, the pies and dessert bars, made with nothing but the best ingredients will be sold at consumer-friendly affordable prices. The line is priced between $3.00 and $7.50 retail. "We are proud to partner with one of America's premier retailers in Walmart for this line," said Deen. "With our busy schedules, dessert is sometimes left to mass produced items with less than wholesome ingredients, making it the forgotten part of a good meal. We created a line of products using what any good cook would use if they had the time...lots of apples, butter, quality nuts and chocolate...so consumers can have access to baked goods that are both affordable and tasty when they need a good dessert to bring home to the family or to that special party or event." The initial line will offer up three pies...Apple Crunch Top, Dark Rum Pecan, Old Fashioned Fudge and Gooey Butter Cake dessert bars...all made with the best ingredients according to the high standards that go along with all Paula Deen products. The line will be expanded to a wide variety of custom baked products, all Walmart exclusive, in the coming months. "Walmart is pleased to offer its customers this exclusive line of Paula Deen baked goods at prices that enable them to save money and live better," said Bakery Vice President Scott Neal.

Especially that dark rum pecan.

I gotta know what this gooey butter cake thing is. I have heard so much about them, I will probably try that first.

No Walmarts any where near us. Closest one is about a half hour and have never been there.

Our closest one is about 1 hour from the house and it's a Super WalMart. We usually stop there on our town trips... there and Costco to stock up on things since we don't have anything on the island except our wee little Pig down at the beach.

Here's a photo I found online of our little Pig (which I like to call the Piglet). Almost the whole building is in the photo and it's wider than it's deeper. Only two checkouts and they use the little shopping carts because the regular-sized ones are too big for the place.

Maybe it is just me but does Paula like places that have conflicts with the employee's ? The boys (mine both worked for Wally World) just got their settlement papers from Walmart where Walmart lost the law suit working all those people off the clock and unpaid overtime. Seems like the meat place, Smithfield's had similar issues. I would think she would try to stay away from that stuff.

I don't know if they are being made and produced by Walmart, they are just being sold there. Could be just like any other brand they sell, but they have exclusive rights to sell it.
