Gaston’s Crème Brûlée Croissant – Magic Kingdom ($5.99)

This oversized croissant is filled with creamy custard that’s flavorful without being overly sweet. The portion is generous, making it easy to share—or keep all to yourself! At under $6, it’s also one of the best value snacks in the park.

Gaston’s Cinnamon Roll – Magic Kingdom ($6.99)

While we’re still at Gaston’s Tavern, we can’t skip the famous cinnamon roll. It’s huge, fluffy, and packed with gooey cinnamon goodness. Definitely one to split with your group… unless you’re brave enough to tackle it solo.

This treat is essentially a giant oatmeal cream pie, but Disney-style. The cookies are soft and rich, with a smooth cream filling that’s not too sweet. A Star Wars snack that satisfies both fans and foodies!

Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bar – Various Locations ($6.26)

An iconic Disney snack. The chocolate shell is thick. The vanilla ice cream inside is high quality (thanks to Nestlé). Biting into those Mickey ears never gets old. It’s nostalgia and deliciousness wrapped into one.

Cookies and Cream Cupcake – Various Resorts ($6.29)

Disney cupcakes can be hit or miss, but this one is a winner. The cake is consistently moist, and the icing strikes a perfect balance between flavorful and sweet without being overpowering. A must-try for Oreo fans.

Butter & Sugar Crêpe – France Pavilion, EPCOT ($6.95)

Simple, classic, and oh-so satisfying. The crêpe is buttery, lightly sweetened, and big enough to share. It’s the perfect treat while strolling through World Showcase.

Cheeseburger Spring Rolls – Spring Roll Cart, Magic Kingdom ($9.50)

A cult favorite! These crispy, savory spring rolls are stuffed with cheeseburger filling and served piping hot. While they’re undeniably tasty, they’re also a bit pricey for just two rolls. Keep that in mind if you’re feeding a group.

Pulled Pork Cheese Arepa – Smiling Crocodile, Animal Kingdom ($13.49)

This unassuming kiosk along the path in Discovery Island serves up some real gems, including these flavorful pulled pork arepas. We chose this version over the chicken option on the menu. The pork was smokey. It was tangy and full of flavor.

Mini Corn Dogs – Casey’s Corner, Magic Kingdom ($10.99)

Classic fair food with a Disney twist. The corn dog batter is perfectly fried with a subtle sweetness that sets it apart. Though listed as an entrée, it comes with fries and a Cuties orange. It’s easily shareable as a snack for the family.

Churros- Nomad Lounge, Animal Kingdom ($10.00)

Without question, these are the best churros on property! Bonus- they are gluten free and come with 2 dipping sauces- vanilla crema and a seasonal flavor.

Croque Glace- L’ Artisan des Glaces, Epcot

At L’Artisan des Glaces in EPCOT’s France Pavilion, the Croque Glacé is a true hidden gem. It consists of a scoop of your favorite rich, creamy ice cream. The ice cream is nestled inside a freshly baked brioche bun. It is then gently pressed until warm and golden. The result? A perfectly crisp exterior with a soft, melty center. It is finished with a drizzle of warm sauce for the ultimate indulgent treat.
