food IS a theme park
Disney World is FILLED with iconic snacks as beloved as the characters and the rides!Â
Mickey Pretzel
If you’ve been ’round these parts long, you’ve likely heard of Mickey Pretzels, Cheshire Cat Tails, and Dole Whip, but there’s a whole world of lesser-known snacks waiting to be discovered!Â
If there are two things we love a LOT, it’s cookies and ice cream.
Hot Cookie Hour
And well, we won’t complain if the two get combined — we’ve love our yummy ice cream sandwiches from Plaza Ice Cream Parlor at Magic Kingdom, as well as the Hot Fudge Cookie Sundae at Storybook Treats and the Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich from Dino-Bite Snacks at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. So, of course, we’re big fans of the Hot Cookie Hour at Gideon’s Bakehouse, which features a Gideon’s cookie fresh out of the oven with a scoop of locally-made malt vanilla ice cream. Can you say “yum?” But there’s a big problem with the Hot Cookie Hour — it’s ONLY ONE HOUR. NOT ANYMORE!
Gideon’s Bakehouse can be just as elusive and mysterious as it is delicious, but we still highly recommend paying a visit if you have the chance!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
Today is National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day, and no one does chocolate chip cookies like Gideon’s Bakehouse! To celebrate the occasion, Gideon’s announced a BONUS cake! Can you guess the flavor?
You’ve heard of Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney Springs, right?
Orange Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookie
The little bakery serves up GIANT cookies (seriously — they’re HALF-POUND COOKIES) with really delicious flavors! They have limited-edition flavors throughout the year, and we just tried the NEW flavors they’ve got for July!
Okay, so we sort of kinda’ missed National Chocolate Chip Day a bit, but we’re of the opinion that EVERY day should be a celebration of chocolate chips.
Artist Palette Jumbo Chocolate Chip Cookie
So while we were busy eating other snacks, like unique Kit Kats, fruity potato chips, and Disney Cruise Line desserts, we were still thinking about that most classic of chocolate chip snacks, the Chocolate Chip Cookie. And of course, we’ve got our favorites at Disney World.
If there’s one thing we love here at DFB, it’s a food HACK!
Nutella Waffle Hack
And if there’s TWO things we love at DFB, it’s Disney food hacks AND seasonal treats!
We’re entering the playoffs of the Best Snacks of 2021 Bracket, and decisions have never been TOUGHER!
Cheshire Cat Tail
Since Disney World is renowned for its EPIC snacks, it’s practically impossible to single out a favorite, which is why we need YOUR help! These past few days, we’ve been asking our readers on Instagram to vote for their picks!
It’s time to mix things that shouldn’t be mixed: electricity and umbrellas. We’re back at Epcot’s Electric Umbrella to share the new Brisket Sandwich, a kids’ flatbread option, and a cup of beer cheese. (J/K, we don’t share beer cheese.)
Electric Umbrella
Electric Umbrella is a classic Disney Parks quick service restaurant in Epcot’s Future World. It gets a bad rap, but I honestly am usually pretty happy with my meals there. [Read more…]
Walt Disney World is regularly stepping up its food game, and that includes quick service (a.k.a. fast food) in its parks and resorts.
What a View!!
In fact, some quick service dining is so good, it rivals some of the better table service restaurants in the parks and resorts!
We brought you to the first day of Epcot’s International Festival of the Holidays LIVE here on DFB, and today, we’ve got even more details about one of the Festival’s new experiences: the Cookie Stroll!
