When vacationing at Disney World you can look forward to experiencing excellent attractions, intricate theming, entertaining live shows, and seeing your favorite Disney characters. You can also expect to experience excellent dining, classic snacks, sweet treats, and savory delights. Throughout all four Disney parks, guests will love the various dining options that are available to them. If you have a sweet tooth you can find yummy desserts everywhere you go at Disney. Whether you sit down at a restaurant, enjoy a quick-service option, or get in line at a food stand, here are some great options for the ultimate Disney dessert crawl.

Dole Whip at Magic Kingdom

One of the most famous Disney desserts is located at Magic Kingdom. In Adventureland you’ll find Sunshine Tree Terrace. Here you’ll find the famous Dole Whip. This pineapple soft-serve ice cream comes in several different varieties. Guests can find Dole Whip Orange, Dole Whip Strawberry, classic Dole Whip, and different types of Dole Whip floats.

Plaza Ice Cream Parlor at Magic Kingdom

Located right at the end of Main Street USA in Magic Kingdom, Plaza Ice Cream Parlor serves nostalgic ice cream treats. The creamy texture of this homemade ice cream is something that every guest needs to try at least once. Our favorites here include the All-American Sundae featuring chocolate and vanilla ice cream, peanut butter sauce, and hot fudge, as well as the brownie sundae featuring a warm brownie, your choice of ice cream, whipped cream, and a cherry on top.

Lunch Box Tarts at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Another nostalgic treat can be found at Hollywood Studios at Woody’s Lunch Box. Over in Toy Story Land, Woody’s Lunch Box serves Totchos, BBQ brisket, and grilled cheese. But the shining star for this dessert crawl is the Lunch Box Tart. This pastry filled with fruit jam and topped with frosting is the perfect way to connect with your inner child. Guests can always get a Raspberry Lunch Box Tart but seasonal Lunch Box Tarts are available throughout the year as well with special flavors like Chocolate-Covered Strawberry.

Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake at Magic Kingdom

If you find yourself looking for a restaurant to sit down for a meal then consider Liberty Tree Tavern within Magic Kingdom’s Liberty Square. Serving a classic American meal of turkey, mac n cheese, stuffing, and mashed potatoes, the real star of the show is the Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake for dessert. This vanilla toffee cake is topped with chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream. Make certain that you save room for dessert, though it might be difficult when the meal is so delicious.
