There’s just something special about visiting the World Showcase in EPCOT and experiencing all the fun of different cultures in one day!
Hello little dragon!
Of course, it’s particularly fun to visit spots around the park where you can find unique offerings, cool snacks, and fun souvenirs. One thing that returned to EPCOT recently happens to fit in all three of those categories!
Years ago, you used to be able to get spun sugar art made in the China Pavilion, and it was INCREDIBLE. We last saw this offering at the 2020 International Festival of the Arts, and we’ve been missing it ever since.

Well, now the sugar art is BACK, BABY! We stopped by House of Good Fortune on a recent visit and spotted an artist working her magic with the sugar.
The display
The cost varies depending on the intricacy of your design, and our dragon was on the more expensive end. It took about 10 minutes total to make, so this is definitely not a grab-and-go experience. It was so fascinating to watch the artist make the candy, though. We found ourselves mesmerized!
Prices
The candy itself is pretty sickly sweet because it’s mostly sugar. It had a bit of a maple-honey-like flavor, but other than that, it was just straight-up sweetness. It’s very hard but breaks easily, and pieces can snap off if you’re not careful when carrying it around.
The Dragon!
We would definitely do this again to watch the art in progress and to share the experience with friends or family, but if you’re doing it just for the flavor of the snack, you might be disappointed. The results are absolutely stunning, and this is a great addition to the China Pavilion.
It’s so beautiful
We’ll be on the lookout for more new additions to World Showcase in the future.
