Sure, it’s July, and while we’re busy sweating it out in Florida, we’re dreaming of the holiday season (even if the only snow we ever really get to see is SNOAP).
We recently got details about Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party (and, yes, tickets are on sale now), and we’re already dreaming of all the holiday snacks we’ll get to eat once November rolls around. Fortunately for us, though, Christmas in July is a thing, and one of our fave snack spots in Disney Springs is offering some flavors that are usually reserved for the holidays.
Gideon’s Bakehouse is celebrating Christmas in July by offering its Kris Kringle Bites, which are chocolate coffee bean cookie bites with coconut, caramel, and vanilla bean topped with sugar crystals and hand-dipped in white chocolate. Happy Holidays! You get six bites in a bag and you’re only limited to two bags per visit. These are available at both Gideon’s locations, including the one in Disney Springs, every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in July. They are limited, though, so you’ll want to get to the shop EARLY to get your hands on them.
Gideon’s Bakehouse is also bringing back its holiday merchandise for a limited time. There’s a 24oz Krampus Tumbler, a Santa Baby Gargoyle Pin, Natala The Christmas Witch Pin, and Christmas Witch Hat Pin. Don’t forget that you can also get cake slices of the Orange Pecan Chocolate Cake (chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream covered in chocolate chips, candied pecans, and candied orange), as well as the Lemon Crumb Cake (lemon cake with lemon cream cheese frosting and lemon crumb accents) every Wednesday and Saturday in July.
This month’s specialty cookies include the Orange Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookie, a vanilla bean cookie fused with orange essence and mixed with our Gideon’s favorite chocolates topped with pecan pralines and candied orange peel. You can also get the Lemon Poppy Crumb Cookie, a lemon cookie filled with poppy seeds and pockets of white chocolate topped with lemon butter crumbs and a thin sugar glaze.
There’s also a Flavors of Florida special: Key Lime Pie Cake Bars. It’s key lime cake topped with key lime cream cheese buttercream and a channel of key lime curd dipped in premium dark chocolate and sprinkled with graham cracker crumble and sea salt. This snack is available through August 11th.
As you can see, the month of July is a good time to head to Gideon’s Bakehouse!
