DFB Reader Finds

If you find a fun new food — or other edible awesomeness — in or around Disney, share a photo with us on facebook or twitter so we can add it to our DFB Reader Finds each Sunday.

Last weekend we told you about the new Rose Gold Ears Cupcake at Epcot’s Sunshine Seasons. DFB reader Tammy Korczyk told us they enjoyed TWO of the cupcakes at her daughter’s bachelorette party! Congrats to your daughter, Tammy! ;-D

The bride-to-be and her cupcake!

The Croques Glaces at L’Artisans des Glaces in Epcot’s France Pavilion is a favorite snack here at DFB! And recently one of our readers, @sleanders, let us know that he tried one based on our recommendation and loved it!
