If there’s a new dessert, you can bet your Disney buttons that we’re ALL over it. Lately, we’ve been sipping on sweet drinks like the Chipotle Pineapple Margarita and the two new fruity drinks at Starbucks, but now we’re shifting gears to talk cake.
The Wave
Since Disney World hasn’t reopened all of its restaurants or resorts just yet, we’ve been keeping up with each of the spots opening again around the area. Although many quick-service and table-service places have reduced their menus during the initial stages of Disney’s reopening, we spotted a returning item… just not where we expected to find it!
The Bay Lake Tower is an exclusive Disney Vacation Club Member spot with a beautiful view of the lake and some great restaurants (with even better food). Although the Top of the World Lounge has a great Vegas-theme as you enjoy some serious views at the top level of the resort, we get WAY too focused on a sweet slice of the Seven Layer Cake on the menu.
Seven Layer Cake for Two
The tall slice of cake is layered with chocolate cake, yellow cake, SO MUCH mousse, and ganache with a salted caramel sauce (brb drooling) that ties the whole thing together. Although the Seven Layer Cake has been exclusive to the Top of the World, the lounge is currently closed at the moment.
Seven Layer Cake — Side View
However, we were surprised (and more than happy) to find that the Seven Layer Cake has resort-hopped on over to The Wave at Disney’s Contemporary Resort! When we checked the official menu at the restaurant, the cake wasn’t listed as one of the offerings during this time. BUT, that just means that The Wave is serving up a secret item for everyone who decides to visit.
Seven Layer Cake
Although the Seven Layer Cake might be in a new place right now, it still tastes just as good as we remember. All that chocolate and caramel should be savored, so we recommend maybe grabbing an extra slice (just for good measure).
While we make our way around the parks and resorts, we’ll keep an eye out for even MORE food news and other goodies to share with you. And, we’ll be here to answer any questions you might have about your upcoming Disney World vacation!
