We talk a lot about the decadent desserts and savory snacks that you can eat at Disney World. Le Cellier has some juicy steaks and Via Napoli’s got those warm, cheesy pizza pies. But today, we’re not here for a fine-dining restaurant review. Now’s not the time to unfold your fancy napkins or sit down for an elegant meal. Today, we’re talking candy. The sugary, high-fructose corn syrup stuff you dreamed about as a kid.
Get ready to be transported back in time as we talk about a NOSTALGIC theme park treat you probably forgot about.
If you’ve ever walked through a Disney World gift shop, you may have seen (and tried to avoid, if you have kids) a Goofy’s Candy Co. Powdered Candy station. You know the drill — grab a big long tube, fill it with sugar, and probably spill a little.
Well, these things still exist believe it or not! They may or may not give you a cavity, but when has that stopped us before?
We spotted two powdered candy stations in EPCOT. One was located in the ImageWorks gift shop and the other was located in the Test Track gift shop.
There are a TON of flavors, including:
- Sour Green Apple
- Sour Lemonade
- Sour Peach
- Sweet Root Beer
- Sweet Strawberry
- Sweet Tropical Fruit
- Sour Watermelon
- Sour Wild Cherry
- Sweet Bubble Gum
- Sweet Birthday Cake
- Sour Blue Raspberry
- Sweet Cotton Candy
- Sour Fruit Punch
- Sour Grape
If you’re feeling adventurous, you could try ALL 14 flavors in one mega-tube.
Is anyone else intrigued by the Sweet Birthday cake flavor?
Well, there you have it. We hope that this warmed your nostalgic heart. Some things never change — even in Disney World! In the meantime, stick around for more Disney news and park updates.

I always love filling up a tube and eating it while waiting for the parade or fireworks to start

I’d pick that sweet birthday cake because there isn’t a lot of food coloring in that one. They called them Pixie Stix when I was a kid.
