Top 6 Ice Cream Treats at Walt Disney World

If there is one thing I have learned in my life as a foodie, it would be this: there is never a bad time for ice cream. This statement especially rings true in Walt Disney World, where delectable ice cream treats are found almost everywhere food is sold. Here are my favorite ways to enjoy ice cream at Walt Disney World Parks and Resorts!

6. The Plaza Ice Cream Parlor

Main Street USA is known for its entertainment, parades, and general magical atmosphere. What a lot of people don’t know, is how good the ice cream is. The Plaza Ice Cream Parlor is home to various flavors of ice cream, which can all be styled into a cone, cup, sundae, or float. The close proximity to all of the Magic Kingdom Parades and Wishes, make this location a must-try!

5. Italy and France

For desserts around the world, head over to Epcot’s World Showcase where you’ll find Italian gelato and French ice cream treats at L’Artisan des Glaces. In Italy, make sure to stop at the Gelati Cart, where your mouth will water at the gelato, gelato sandwiches, and even cannolis. L’Artisan des Glaces is home to 16 flavors of ice cream and sorbet, macaroons, and even ice cream cocktails!

4. Ghiradelli

If you’re looking for a sundae worth sharing, head over to the Ghiradelli Ice Cream and Soda Shoppe in Disney Springs. Gobs of hot fudge, peanut butter, and endless amounts of toppings combine to create your dream sundae. Milkshakes, plain scoops of ice cream, and floats are also available for those looking for smaller portions.

3. Cronut and Ice Cream

For a different kind of treat, try the cronut and ice cream dessert at The Refreshment Port in Epcot’s World Showcase. Pastry dough is fried like a donut, and then smothered with cinnamon-sugar before getting topped off with a scoop of creamy ice cream. This snack sure to satisfy your sweet tooth!

2. Kitchen Sink Sundae

For my food daredevils, this sundae is for you. Eight scoops of ice cream topped with more toppings than you could ever imagine is served up to your party in a kitchen sink. Literally. So grab some friends, (or don’t- I won’t judge), and head over to Beaches & Cream Soda Shop at Disney’s Beach Club Resort, where you can personalize the ice cream of your dreams.

1. Mickey Ice Cream

You cannot go wrong with this classic ice cream treat. This creamy vanilla ice cream is wrapped in a milk chocolate shell. You can be sure it is a hit a hot Orlando day… Or any day really- you are in DISNEY after all! And the best part? You can find this treat in each of the four parks.
