Written Travel, Trek & Tour Contributor, April 09, 2018

We all know that fun rides, stunning shows, and early arrivals are the keys to having fun at Disneyland.

However, there is much more the Disneyland than meets the eye. In fact, many people buy Disneyland tickets for one sole reason – to enjoy the yummy food!

Okay, maybe that’s not the only reason people buy increasingly expensive tickets to Disneyland. But one thing is for sure, Disneyland has plenty of delicious treats to fill your tummy as you explore what is meant to be a walk through your childhood, even as a grown up.

Today we are going to take a look at 6 must-have treats when visiting Disneyland so you can experience everything that is the happiest place on earth.

1. Dole Whip

Nothing says delicious like the pineapple flavored frozen treat that is Dole Whip at Disneyland. Served by itself or as a float in pineapple juice, you can grab yourself one of the most popular treats at Disneyland right at the entrance of the Enchanted Tiki Room.

Just get in line while you wait for the next show, enjoy your treat, and then proceed to watching dancing and singing birds in their jungle habitat. And the best part? Not only is the Dole Whip a feast for your belly, the show is a feast for eyes.

2. Crunchy Pickle

They’re huge, they’re juicy, and whaddya know, the famous crunchy dill pickle at Disneyland is one of the healthiest treats you can get while at Disneyland. That’s not to say however, that they are any less delicious than anything else you can get while on your vacation. In fact, this treat is a fan favorite.

3. Churros

For those that love churros, you know there are churros and then there are churros. The great thing about Disneyland is that their churros are not the knock off wannabes. They are always warm, fresh, and full of sugar, which is what all churro lovers love!

Easily find these sweet treats in stands located throughout the park, and if you’re there with your kiddos, make sure to stop off in Tomorrowland where they sometimes come in light saber colors like blue and red.

4. Mickey Pretzels

If salty is more your thing and you’re craving something doughy, soft, and delicious, get in line for a Mickey shaped pretzel. They come with or without cheese, are super yummy, and are easy to eat, especially as you wait in the long lines for your favorite rides.

5. Mickey Bar

Everyone loves a good ice cream. Even better, everyone loves a good ice cream that’s shaped like Mickey and covered with a chocolately coating.

As a side note, there are plenty of other places to grab your favorite cold treat – in a cone, as a scoop, or even piled high as a sundae – all around the Disneyland park. From traditional flavors to secret ones during holidays and special occasions, you can find ice cream in stands, in Downtown Disney, and at any of the restaurants serving up some of the best meals you’ve ever had.

6. Beignets – Mickey Style

Fried doughnuts, shaped like Mickey, and covered in powdered sugar, are just the kind of treat to tie you over until your next meal. Plus, the sugar rush you get from them is enough to make even the most tired of legs wake up a little.

And there you have it! Some of the very best treats you can indulge in while vacationing to a place that is designed to make all your dreams come true!
