Get ready for DONUUUUUUUUUTTTTS!!!!
And thanks to our intrepid Dining in Disneyland guru, Heather Sievers, we have a FIRST LOOK at these gourmet beauties…that happen to be selling out in Disneyland pretty regularly, we hear.
As you know, we are big fans of this particular pastry here at DFB. Witness our post about the Big Ol’ Donut at Joffrey’s Carts throughout Walt Disney World, or check out the killer mini donuts at Disney Water Parks — again, a Joffrey’s thing. Heck, we’ve even talked about donuts near Disneyland. See? It’s clear that the donut love runs deep.
But now, we’re actually seeing them IN Disneyland. You can find these confections at the Coffee Cart on Main Street. And the price tag may seem a little steep. But these aren’t garden variety donuts, by any stretch.
The day we investigated, we found 3 different varieties. To begin, check out the Fruity Pebble Donut. The plain Long John Glazed Donut is topped with Yellow-tinted Vanilla Frosting and a generous blanket of Fruity Pebbles.
The next version was also a Long John (that’s donut-ese for oblong and rectangular), but this one features Chocolate Icing, Peanut Butter Cup Triangles, and Chocolate Pearls in the season’s signature color. Preeeeeeettttyyyyyyy.
I’m calling the last one the Waffle Cone Donut, because it’s topped with Vanilla Icing and all manner of Sprinkles — both Jimmies/Sprinkles and Mini M&Ms. But the pièce de résistance are the shards of Waffle Cone embedded in the icing.
It would be a mess to eat. But seriously. Who cares.
We hear that there are three more varieties, but we haven’t caught ’em yet. When we do, you’ll be the first to know!
If you’re looking for these over-the-top treats, be sure to stop by either right after the Park opens, or again at 6:00PM, when the day’s second batch arrives.
I’m totally heading there now to grab a Disneyland Donut or THREE.
OH, and while Heather didn’t try them yet, our Instagram friend Grudiowerx says the Fruity Pebble one is his favorite. What’s yours?!?
But now, I can’t wait to hear from all 0f you! What do you think of the new Disneyland Donuts? Leave a comment and tell us which one looks the best to you!

The chocolate looks very good, but unless it was going to be my breakfast, I don’t think I’d spend over $5.00 for a donut.

In upstate NY “Long Johns” are called:”Fingers”
“Long Johns” are what you wear under your clothes during the winter!

Today’s is a Matterhorn, a vanilla donut with white chocolate and coconut icing, and a macaroon peak. Directions to the stand had us wandering; the stand is on the NW side of the hub.
