REVIEW: Disney World’s New Cupcake is Hiding Some BIG Flavor

Flavors of Florida kicked off today in Disney Springs and brought with it some awesome summertime eats!

Flavors of Florida

We tried a crazy Key lime milkshake AND a Key lime donut! Some of the offerings that came out before the festival began have been fun too, like the watermelon dole whip or Key lime cookies (Florida loves its Key limes!). We’ve been working our way around Disney Springs trying to taste all the food we can, and we just found a cupcake that brings those Florida flavors to life!

This is the Orange Blossom Cupcake from Erin McKenna’s Bakery NYC in Disney Springs!

Summertime sweets!

It’s a vanilla cake with orange-flavored frosting, and it’s vegan, just like all of the desserts at Erin McKenna’s!

The cake was very dense but remained moist. It had a lot of fresh orange zest in the vanilla cake, which was absolutely delicious!

The icing was thick and slightly sweet with a fresh orange flavor and a cute orange blossom flower on top!

Beautiful little flower!

For a vegan offering, this was super good! Vegans and citrus fans should love this cupcake. But, if you’re looking for a cupcake with that rich, traditional buttercream, you might want to head to a location like Sprinkles!

A look inside

The cake reminds us of our cute little Orange Bird friend we see all around Disney now! There’s even an Orange Bird mural at Disney Springs that’s perfect to pose in front of during the Flavors of Florida event!
