REVIEW: Even Candy Corn Haters Won't Be Able To Resist This $7 Disney World Treat

Grim grinning ghosts aren’t the only ones coming out to socialize this season, because the Halloween treats have officially arrived at Disney World! If you’re anything like us, you’ve been counting down the days until pumpkin-spiced everything and spooky sprinkles start popping up around the parks.

Candy Corn Cake Pop

We’ve been making our way around Disney World, trying all of the spooky snacks at the parks and beyond this year to find out which ones are worth grabbing and which ones we’d send straight to the graveyard. Grab your Mickey ears, a pumpkin-shaped souvenir bucket, and a very large napkin, because we’ve got another Halloween snack review comin’ at ya!

We stopped by Flame Tree Barbecue at Animal Kingdom to try the Candy Corn Cake Pop for $6.29. This is a spiced cheesecake with apple butter swirl and brown butter graham crackers, dipped in white chocolate. Sounds like the perfect fall treat, but is it worth a stop on your next visit?

We’re kind of obsessed.

This is no ordinary kids’ cake pop. In fact, we’d venture to say it isn’t a cake pop at all. You might even want to keep this one from the kids, because it’s that good. Inside is a spiced apple cheesecake filling that’s creamy, smooth, and melts in your mouth. The apple is bold and cinnamon-forward in every bite. But the real star, my friend, is the brown butter graham cracker crust. The brown butter is nutty, warm, and rich, and it pairs beautifully with the toasty graham. Combined with the ethereally creamy filling and the apple, you’ve got the perfect fall Halloween treat.

LOTS of filling

The white chocolate shell is perfectly tempered and pleasantly thin, though we still found ourselves flicking off pieces to get to that center. Don’t be put off by the controversial candy corn shape. This one is 100% treat, no trick.

Super creamy filling

We’ll be on the lookout for additional snacks you need to know about at Disney World and more. In the meantime, make sure you stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for the latest Disney news and beyond!
