R&B diva Patti Labelle and her sweet potato pies was a hit for the 2015 holiday season. A viral video posted by James Wright Chanel helped move the pies off the shelves at Walmart stores across the country.  In one weekend, Walmart sold more than $1 million in sweet potato pies. Now LaBelle is trying to recreate her dessert magic with new products that include a vanilla poundcake and a three layer caramel cake. The singer tweeted to her followers on Monday, “Who’s ready for #PattiCake? My new vanilla pound cake is making its way to stores!” The cakes are now available at Walmart for around $7 each with the caramel cake available starting on January 18 for $13.94. According to Labelle, a variety of new dessert products will soon be available at Walmart in 2016.
