Top Ten Sweet Snacks in Disney World

Snacks are one of the best features on the dining plan.  We love to stretch them to meals, and to really feel like we got a bargain, but Disney does some of the best sweets around, and it is just nice to have a treat.  Check out these top ten sweet snacks that all qualify for the dining plan.

1. Dole Whip - Adventureland, Magic Kingdom and Captain Cook's at the Polynesian.  I prefer the vanilla/pineapple twist or the Float. Worth the wait in line. 

2. Cupcakes - almost everywhere.  The Resort Bakeries have some amazing concoctions, like the Oreo Bon Bon cupcake at the Boardwalk.  Another favorite is the Darth Vader cupcake at Starring Rolls in Hollywood Studios during Star Wars Weekend.  Chocolate, peanut butter - worth going to the Dark Side.

 3. Schoolbread - Kringla, Norway, Epcot.  Disclaimer: I don't like coconut but this is something of a legend so I feel compelled to include it for those who do.  Authentic pastry with Norwegian flair.

4. Mocha Float - Auntie Gravity in Tomorrowland in Magic Kingdom.  I admit, my kids had ice cream for breakfast during our last trip so I could get one of these first thing after I had tried one. 

5. Karamel Kuche - Germany, Epcot - This shop is a Werthers heaven.  All sorts of treats from popcorn to apples to cookies, made with Werthers.  Many items are on the dining plan.

6. Mickey Bars - many snack carts in the parks - Of course, the icon Mickey bar - Mickey shaped Vanilla ice cream dipped in chocolate.  TRY to eat just one during your trip.

7. Rice Krispie Treats - everywhere.  Resorts, food courts, gift shops - these are probably the most popular take home treat at Disney World.  There may be a bit of pixie dust in the recipe- they're that good.

8. Frozen Lemonade or Coke- Animal Kingdom - This isn't the hard plastic cup that you scrape lemon flavored ice with a spoon - this is the slushy and refreshing drink that makes waiting for that 3:45 parade tolerable.  Near the Boneyard.

9. Ice Cream Sandwich - Sleepy Hollow in Magic Kingdom - these are not pre-packaged.  Homemade cookies, with a good amount of ice cream (flavor options available), large enough to share.  Trust me on this one...



10. Itzakadoozie pops - many snack carts in the pops.  This rainbow twist popsicle is refreshing and will make you feel like a kid again.

Regardless of how you spend your snack credits, be sure to use them throughout your trip.  Many people have quite a few left because they save them.  Well, there's always the Rice Krispie Treats!
