Guess Where You Can Find Mickey Jell-o in Disneyland!

By AJ and the DFB Team 6 Comments

With so many creative and interesting snacks available at Disneyland Resort, it might seem like there’s no place for the simplest of treats: good ol’ fashioned Jell-o.

But that’s where White Water Snacks steps in — in the most magical way possible. Because White Water Snacks has Mickey-shaped Jello!

Mickey Jello!

Woo! Back it up! Our Disneyland correspondent Heather (follow her @DiningInDisney!) stopped in for a snack recently, and discovered these jiggly mouse-shaped treats in a cooler in the grab-and-go section.

Mickey Jello

Also in this cooler are cream for coffee and packets of butter for other dishes — right next to a whipped cream canister.

Mickey Jello and Whipped Cream!

Heather being the intrepid Disneyland snacker that she is spotted an opportunity immediately. The thick strawberry Jello was a decent portion and honestly as cute as one might reasonably expect Jello to be.

And now she had the perfect Jello food hack: cover that sweet treat in delicious whipped cream!

Whipped Cream and Mickey Jello!

From every angle this has childhood favorite written all over it — only it’s not just a bowl of hastily spooned Jello. It’s Mickey!

Okay, so technically this is called Mickey Strawberry Gelatin, but we like to keep simple things simple: it’s Jell-o. And it’s delightful!

And that’s how Mickey Jello with Whipped Cream was born! And we love it in every way!

Mickey Jello and Whipped Cream is born!

We’re so happy that the simplest food pleasures persist, even in the face of the incredible creativity and skill that brings pastries and desserts to life at the Disney Parks. And a food hack involving Whipped Cream? Always a win!
