When you see those orange Mickey wreaths at the Magic Kingdom, you know fall has arrived at Walt Disney World Resort. One of the best things about fall at Walt Disney World is the snacks! Here are some of the best and worst snacks at Disney World in 2021!
Best Walt Disney World Fall Snacks
Whenever I give my opinions on Disney snacks, take it with a grain of salt (or sugar). My taste buds are not your taste buds. Also sometimes, snacks vary on time of day and who made it. Sometimes I can love a snack, get it another time, and it’s just meh. But I’ll so my best to steer you right, because fall snacks at Disney are my favorite!
Candy Corn Milkshake
It’s rare when my whole family can agree on something, and this Candy Corn Milkshake was declared a winner by everyone. Did it taste super candy corny? No, it was sweet but not overly sweet like the candy. The donut on top had a vanilla flavor. It was ok to me, but again, my kids love vanilla, so they liked it a lot. Find this at Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Hollywood Scoops. At $10, it’s pricey, but worth the splurge.
Sally’s Whoopie Pie
This fall snack is adorable. You can’t deny it, but it was flavorless to me. However, my kids loved it! They live vanilla and the whoopie pie and frosting inside tasted very plain and vanilla-y. So if that’s your jam, try it. But it wasn’t my thing. You can find it at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa at Gasparilla Island Grill.
Pumpkin Cannoli PizzeRizzo
The Pumpkin Cannoli at PizzeRizzo in Disney’s Hollywood Studios is delicious! The texture of the crunchy cannoli paired with the creamy pumpkin filling is just right. If the cannoli was ever soggy, then it would be gross.
Eat it upstairs in the wedding room to really get the full party effect!
Frozen Apple Cider
It’s the boba that does it for me. This is basically frozen apple juice, but somehow the boba gives it a little extra something. It’s really refreshing on a hot day. Last year I wasn’t sold on it, but this year it grew on me.
You can find the Frozen Apple Cider at different quick-service locations at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Best Fall Snacks at Magic Kingdom
Halloween is my favorite season, and being a local, I love trying new fall foods at Walt Disney World. It seems like the Magic Kingdom fall snacks in 2021 are Boo Bash exclusive. Last year they had several fun items in the parks like the ones below.
I hope some of my favorite fall snacks at Magic Kingdom make it back this year! But a lot of the places that would serve my favorite fall Magic Kingdom snacks are closed like Big Top Snacks.
Foolish Mortal Funnel Cake
This one is Boo Bash Exclusive. Funnel cake topped with chocolate cookie crumbles, purple vanilla ice cream (though I’ve seen it with chocolate, too) caramel drizzle, and M&M’s milk chocolate Ghoul’s Mix (Available 8/10-10/31).
Mickey Pumpkin Spiced Waffle Sundae at Sleepy Hollow
This was my favorite Magic Kingdom Snack last year. Nothing fancy, it’s just good flavors mixed together. The pumpkin spice waffles have vanilla ice cream on top, caramel sauce, and whipped cream with sprinkles.
This was at Sleepy Hollow which is on the way to Liberty Square from Cinderella Castle.
Pumpkin Spice Milkshake at Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies
This was also last year’s snack, but it was replaced by the Candy Corn Milkshake now at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The Studios version is better.
Constance’s For Better or For Worse Wedding Wedding Cake
How can you not serve this? It was a staple for years! This citrus cake with raspberry Bavarian cream, whipped cream flowers, and a chocolate axe was available to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party two years ago and then in Magic Kingdom last year for the fall.

Worst Halloween Snacks Magic Kingdom 2020
When providing opinions about snacks, it’s all subjective. My taste buds may not be the same as yours, and honestly, sometimes Disney is having a bad day and the food isn’t up to par. Some people may enjoy the next snacks, but they weren’t my jam.
Headless Horseman Rides Again Float at Sunshine Tree Terrace
So I did not hate this, but it was very sweet and strawberry. Normally I love a Pineapple-Vanilla Swirl Dole Whip Float and use the vanilla to balance out the tart. I could have used the same buffer here.
Once I got to the Strawberry Fanta mixed with the Strawberry Dole Whip, I enjoyed it more. And the light-up Headless Horseman key chain is adorable! If you’re a strawberry fan, go for it. If you’re not, I would skip it.
Poor Unfortunate Souls Float at Storybook Treats
The Poor Unfortunate Souls float was a Villains After Hours treat that changed for fall 2020 in Magic Kingdom. Inspired by Ursula, it is Cream Cheese Soft-Serve with Raspberry Syrup and Coca-Cola. The thought was there, but the execution was too much.
The flavor is the soft serve wasn’t bad, but there was way too much syrup. It over-powered the base and just tasted like a lot of raspberry syrup. This is another example where less is more. The syrup changed the color way too purple, so it wasn’t a nice subtle raspberry.
The crown is edible and cute, but it lacked taste and is too hard. There were supposed to be other candies on top, but I don’t know if they ran out that day or what?
I’ll keep adding to this list as I try more of the fall snacks at Walt Disney World! Here’s hoping they continue to add more!
