That was just about the best store-bought cake I ever found.
It’s too bad you can’t buy it anywhere now...

I agree, my grandmother always had one and I loved it.

I used Kittencal's Bakery Frosting for these back in July 2012 when I was in a cupcake mania. I was very happy with the frosting recipe and it takes a lot to pipe with a bag and tip on cupcakes like these, got a little over 2 dozen usually from a cake mix. It was a Confetti cake mix as you can tell duh.

' If I get around to making the cake and frosting it, I will post my results. A&P still has/had stores in 51 states, not mine, lots in Illinois, but I doubt they sell the Bar cake any more.

I would think they have a copyright or patent or registration on their recipe which doesn't preclude developing and/or using a copycat recipe. I do like store-bought white cake with the frosting that is NOT whipped but they have gotten very expensive. And some are decorated really ugly.
