REVIEW: This NEW $6 Magic Kingdom Dessert Looks Great and Tastes Even Better

The 2026 edition of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has arrived, and with it has come some EXCLUSIVE snacks across Magic Kingdom.

The Lunching Pad

Many of the park’s eateries – – ranging from table service restaurants like Be Our Guest to quick-service spots like Casey’s Corner – – are offering special seasonal offerings. That includes The Lunching Pad in Tomorrowland!

The Lunching Pad is always a big draw during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, and this year provides a menu made up of returning favorites from years’ past, plus a BRAND NEW dessert addition!

Full spread!

Let’s start with the Creepy Kimchi Hot Dog for $13.99! This hot dog is topped with sriracha cream cheese, kimchi, and Hades relish.

Creepy Kimchi Hot Dog

We’ve tried this dog in the past, but this year we were still a bit surprised. Ours was very salty, but the kimchi had just the right amount of flavor and a medium spice level. Depending on your spice limitations, this can be a very pleasant choice. The cabbage base adds a full level of refreshment and fresh flavor, but the bright green pickle was a bit off-putting. This is a solid hot dog, but nothing to lose your mind over unless you’re really craving some spice.

Look at all that green

Next up, there’s the Jalapeño Popper Hot Dog for $14.99! This hot dog is topped with queso fundido, pickled and fried jalapeños, bacon, and onions.

Jalapeño Popper Hot Dog

Like the Creepy Kimchi dog, we’ve also had the jalapeño Popper Hot Dog before. How did the 2026 version hold up in 2026? Well, we actually preferred it of the two options! This was also salty, but that just added to the savory aspect. The onions were delicious and added a crunchy texture after the fun kick of the jalapeños on top. Keep in mind that heat builds with each bite. The only thing we wanted more of was the cream cheese flavor, otherwise we really enjoyed the hot dog.

A look inside

Of course, we also had to try the NEW Hades Cake Pop, which costs $6.29! This is made up of Mexican hot chocolate cake with popping candies dipped in chocolate with blue marshmallow “fire”.

Hades Cake Pop

We found this new dessert to be a pleasant surprise! The marshmallowy exterior that looks like Hades’ hair is loads of fun, and you get some great dark chocolate flavors with each bite. The popping candies definitely come through and provide another texture. This was a fun dessert that builds with each bite into a really awesome chocolatey crescendo.

YUM

Overall, the offerings at Lunching Pad pleasantly surprised us, and we think this location is worth a visit during the party!

We’re LIVE at the FIRST Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party of 2026!
