Can you purchase a wedding cake on food stamps?

Answer 1

Yes, from grocery stores. You can even order a birthday cake and pay for it with your EBT

Answer 2

You can buy such a cake if it's pre-made, then chilled-- not if you have it custom-baked. The cake may be decorated with icing and other edible accoutrements and still be eligible be purchased with food stamps. This is an example, however, of food stamp misuse. While the misuse of food stamps is not a crime, food stamp fraud is!. Examples of fraud include buying anything that is NOT food (a cake is), and turning in the FS for cash. You also cannot buy hot foods or non-food items. And only a store that takes food stamps can honor them, not a typical stand-alone bakery.

Answer 3

No.

YES YOU CAN! I purchase birthday cakes all the time with EBT. I even bought a $300 wedding cake with some! Maybe it depends on the state you live in.

Answer 4

You need to ask about that.
