Many believe the best blackberries are marionberries, a cultivar with a sweeter flavor and vivid purple color that pleases the eyes and the stomach. The Marionberry Almond Swirl Cake from Posh Pantry has returned to Costco this season, and it looks like the perfect summer treat for tea time or coffee breaks.
The bundt cake with violet icing is a returning favorite from last year. Its rich almond flavor is laced with a light berry undercurrent that can be enhanced with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The price tag has increased slightly from last year—up 70 cents for a new cost of $11.69—but it's still the same 36 ounces, so there is more than enough to share with the whole family.
Of course, that's not all that's new this week at Costco. There are several additions that totally deserve a spot in your cart this week!
Earn 2% cash rewards at grocery stores and Costco
The Wells Fargo Active Cash® Card(Rates and fees) is a powerful rewards card that allows you to earn unlimited 2% cash rewards on purchases — including on groceries, even at warehouse stores like Costco.
New cardholders can also earn a one-time cash rewards bonus — $200 cash rewards bonus after spending $500 in purchases in the first 3 months!
If you’re looking for a powerful rewards card that offers an extended intro APR period, look no further, the Wells Fargo Active Cash® Card checks that box too!
This card also offers an intro APR of 0% for 12 months from account opening on purchases and qualifying balance transfers (then 19.74%, 24.74%, or 29.74% Variable). Which is great for someone who wants a break from high interest rates, while still earning rewards.
The best part? There's no annual fee.

Strawberry Bliss Cake
The Strawberry Bliss Cake from Posh Pantry is the perfect alternative for those not excited about the marionberry option. This classic strawberry option is also larger, weighing 64 ounces of delicious cakey goodness with a sweet crumble topping.
The bundt cake comes wrapped with patriotic red and blue ribbons, so it's ready and set for Fourth of July picnics. Skip the baking and get right to eating with this coffee cake that will surely be a crowd-pleaser.
Late July Salsa
It's always good to have a jar of salsa or three in the cupboard for snack time or unexpected guests. Is there anything salsa doesn't go with? Chips, crackers, tacos, avocado — there's very little this spicy condiment can't garnish!
Late July brand salsa is selling three jars for $9.99 - that's more than 45 ounces for summer snacking. Late July uses organic diced tomatoes, an excellent option for avoiding unnecessary chemicals.
Taiwanese Squiggly Noodles
Sometimes, the best noodle name is the most obvious description, and Taiwanese Squiggly Noodles sets the appropriate shape description from the start. The variety pack offers three flavors: braised pork, shallot, and zha jiang.
The best part? The price is $9.89 — less than half of what Amazon currently charges. The pack includes six meal sets (two of each flavor) of instant noodles, convenient for a quick lunch on the go.

Bottom line
Summer is a great time to enjoy some seasonal flavors that aren't always available, and Costco has excellent affordable options for sharing with family or at a social gathering—or for scurrying away in a hidden corner of the cupboard to keep all for yourself.
