You already know that Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom is, well, magical. From sunrise to sunset and beyond, it’s beautiful from almost any angle.
And now our icing wishes have come true (naturally!) at Gaston’s Tavern.
Because when you ask for extra icing, they no longer scoop a little somethin’ somethin’ on top — they hand you a cup full of love — er, icing.
Pardon me while I just daydream about pouring that icing directly into my mouth… Although, unless one wishes to be called a Beast, one must use a spoon, yes? Or put it on the cinnamon roll, as it’s intended. 😉 See it in action on an instagram video here!
No one icings like Gaston, obviously. But if you want to try your hand at his cinnamon rolls, we’ve got the recipe for ya!

Wash it down with some LeFou’s brew and what a breakfast start to your day you have!

From the very first time we ate on of these, we couldn’t finish it and wound up throwing at least half of it way. The dough just seems so dry, like it’s missing a lot of shortening in the dough. Even lots of icing didn’t help with the taste to me; that just makes it way too sweet. It must be something in the making of the dough because I’ve noticed it a lot in different rolls and breads. They look wonderful, smell great, but just don’t have a good taste to me.

Okay, but, like… can I get JUST a cup of icing? 😀 😀 😀
DFB Sarah says
Jenn, definitely ask and let us know! 😉

We love to get a cinnamon roll and a chocolate crossiant from Gaston’s as an afternoon snack. Ask for a to go box and take it to eat in Liberty square as you watch a Great Moments in history with the muppets

….why don’t any of my comments get posted?
John says
….must have been a transmission error that day
….anyway
…..we wanted to agree with DebC
……we were so disappointed in the cinnamon roll
….it does look great….it smells great
….but every time we have tried it, it has been dry, kind of tasteless, almost stale tasting
We use to think it was just a bad day or a bad batch….but we have tried them now on more than six different occasions and each time they have been so disappointing
….always kind of dry and tasteless

Good to know. Now I might be willing to try it again. My first and only experience with Gaston’s cinnamon roll was that it was huge, dry and room temp. I ate the top and tossed the rest. Extra icing would help a lot. Just wish the Tavern served some decent lunch options. Right now it is basically a rather uninspired bakery aka a half hearted attempt to make up for turning Main Street Bakery into a Starbucks. Stock it with BOG cupcakes, french onion soup, some sandwiches and you’d have a winner.
DFB Sarah says
Melissa, we’d be all for getting French Onion Soup at Gaston’s!

When I asked for extra icing to go with our cinnamon roll, we were told they didn’t have any. Very disappointing as it’s dry and not very tasty with just what comes on it. Apparently they don’t always have the extra.
