It doesn’t even REMOTELY feel like fall in Disney World, but we’re not letting that stop us from enjoying the fall and Halloween season (it will cool off…eventually, right?). That means we’ve been enjoying seeing all the spooky decor and going to the first Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party of the year. Oh, and the snacks! We are ALL about the fall snacks.

Spooky dessert time!

Well, fall and Halloween are also a pretty big deal in Disney Springs…and you don’t even need a park ticket to enjoy it. Well, new fall snacks just arrived in Disney Springs, and you KNOW we ran there to check them out to get you a review. So let’s get on with it!

We started at Amorette’s Patisserie with the Apple Cheesecake, which is a Vanilla Cheesecake, Apple Compote, Apple-Caramel Ganache, and Spiced Graham Cracker Crust for $9.75. For a hot minute, we thought this would be THE perfect fall dessert, but then the apple mousse on top of the cheesecake hit us with a really artificial flavor that we weren’t massive fans of. However, the cheesecake itself is SOOOO creamy with a light, sweet, and tangy flavor, complemented by the apples.

The compote gave us autumnal spices that made us wish we could put on a warm sweater, and the apples had a bit of a crunch. It’s all held up by a graham cracker crust with a blonde chocolate crumb coating surrounding it, which had a wonderful slightly caramel-ish nutty flavor. This would be a 10/10 if it weren’t for that artificial-tasting mousse. SO close.

This is FALL, baby!

We also picked up the Candle Petit Cake for $22. It’s made with Black Velvet Cake with Spiced Berry Jam, Pumpkin Ganache, and Dark Chocolate Glacage. The frosting is a thin layer of purple frosting that’s soft and fluffy and has a touch of vanilla flavor. The dark chocolate glaçage has a very mild flavor, and it’s mostly just for looks. Inside, the cake layers are light and airy, but they don’t have a lot of flavor, which works because it allows the other flavors to shine.

The pumpkin ganache is thick and smooth, and the pumpkin flavor is subtle. Most of the flavor of the cake comes from the spiced berry jam. The spice is noticeable and has just a bit of a kick, so it might not be as sweet and fruity as you would expect. Here’s the thing, though: the berry, pumpkin, and dark chocolate flavors just don’t mesh well. It’s worth a try if you’re an adventurous eater, but we’d skip it if you aren’t.

Not so sure about all these flavors

Okay, let’s have a drink. We headed over to the Bar Cart on the West Side of Disney Springs to try the Hibiscus Mezcal Margarita for $18.50. If you like mezcal, this is YOUR drink. The mezcal packs a punch and offers a nice balance of peppery and smoky flavors that somehow pairs perfectly with the floral hibiscus syrup. The chile lime rim offers a bit of a kick, but also balances out all the flavors.

Over at eet by Maneet Chauhan, you can grab the Darkest Night Slushie for $7.95. It’s a frozen green apple non-alcoholic slushie dyed black with a ping pong eye ball. SPOOKY. The flavor is green apple, but it’s not that lip-puckering green apple, but something a little more like an earthy apple-flavored lemonade. We’re conflicted, though. Some sips were so tasty, while others were…well…not so tasty. Maybe it’s the eye staring at us while we’re drinking it? But it is a fun and refreshing drink to grab outside of the parks, and we bet there are some people out there who will love it. Plus it’s got that Halloween vibe.

Okay, let’s get back to the food. We made our way over to The Ganachery to try a few treats, including the Pumpkin Spice  S’more for $9. This is house-made graham crackers, spiced pumpkin ganache, dark chocolate, and vanilla marshmallow toasted to order. Hello, fall! This tastes like leaves of all colors falling in piles on the ground that we just want to jump into. First, we have to mention that the graham crackers also have their own spices, just to add to that fall feeling. Also, a warning: this thing falls apart easily, so you might want to grab a fork and napkins.

Pumpkin Spice S’more

The marshmallow is so light, melty, and creamy. The chocolate is UBER creamy and melts in with the pumpkin spice and marshmallow. The entire snack is infused with that pumpkin spice flavor, too, and makes for a very well-balanced treat. This is what every S’more should taste like. 

We LOVE this

Once we cleaned up after that messy treat, we tried the Ursula Dark Berry Ganache Pop, which is blackberry ganache with cassis and vanilla covered in dark chocolate for $8. This pop is SO creamy and rich, and dare we say…DECADENT. Ursula would certainly approve. It melts in your mouth with every bite, and the flavors are so balanced between the blackberry and chocolate. The berry flavor also tastes natural, which we appreciated.

We think this is one of those treats that EVERYONE will end up loving unless you don’t like berry flavors. We also think the size is perfect for a single person. BUT…it will melt in the Florida heat, so you’ll want to eat it right away or pack it on ice for later.

The flavors!

Now, we previously reviewed even MORE snacks in Disney World…and you can read those reviews here. Also, we’ll be trying even MORE treats in Disney World, so stay tuned to DFB for more.
