Now that we’ve taken a look at the menu, let’s dive into the food itself!

Eats

Get ready to indulge that sweet tooth with the Cotton Candy Funnel Cake topped with powdered sugar, vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, pink and purple sugar dusting, and cotton candy crunch! Okay, so here’s the thing, this snack is a whopping $12 and it’s a Disney Dining Plan snack credit, which means it’s a great use of a snack credit. BUT…

Cotton Candy Funnel Cake

We don’t think it’s worth $12. First, we didn’t get any cotton candy flavor from this funnel cake. However, that said, it was windy, and the actual cotton candy on top flew off the top of ours. WHOOPS. But there isn’t any cotton candy flavor in the funnel cake itself that we can taste.

It’s hard to eat

We also found it hard to eat and impossible to eat with our hands — there’s a lot going on with the ice cream, powdered sugar, and sugar crystals. We also think this is smaller than other funnel cakes we’ve seen in Disney World. Was it awful? No. Was it great? Also no.

OVERALL

If you’ve got the Disney Dining Plan, this funnel cake makes for a great use of a snack credit, but we wouldn’t pay for this snack again. There are far better things to eat at the festival, so we’d say save your $$$ for those other items.

That’s it for this booth, but there’s a LOT more where that came from!
