When it comes to celebrating the holidays, no one does it quite like Disney! Apart from the Christmas decorations throughout the parks, Disney World holiday food is a huge draw for visiting the parks this time of the year. With so many different Disney Christmas treats to choose from, it is hard to know which ones to try.
Traditional Disney Christmas Treats
These are the Disney Christmas treats that you will find in the Disney parks between November and December:
1. Disney Christmas Themed Candy Apples
Candy Apples can be purchased at Disney year-round, but during the holidays, they take on a special holiday flare.
You will find them looking their seasonal best with homages to Santa Claus, Olaf and even Jack Skellington.
2. Cake Pops
Nearly all the Disney parks carry holiday cake pops in vanilla, chocolate and red velvet cake!
How cute is this little snowman? He was filled with chocolate cake and was delicious!
If you have a hard time choosing a treat, there are plenty of Christmas-themed cookies to choose from.
You will find iced sugar cookies, decorated shortbread, chocolate drizzled chocolate chip, and even Mickey Mouse gingerbread this time of year.
3. Holiday Cupcakes
Everyone loves a good cupcake & when it comes to the most popular Disney Christmas treats, these always get the most love.
You will find chocolate & vanilla this year decorated with festive-colored icing.
There are some specialty cupcakes this year, like the Santa Mickey Mouse Cupcake over in Hollywood Studios.
4. Marshmallow Wands
If you love marshmallows, you will want to try one of these marshmallow wands. They come dipped in chocolate and covered with sprinkles or candy cane pieces.
5. Rice Krispy Treats
If you happen to love Disney’s Crispy Rice treats, you will find that there are several Christmas styles to choose from.
They come both fully & partially dipped in chocolate and with or without sprinkles.
We are partial to this one that is a Mickey Mouse Snowflake.
