With so many creative and interesting snacks available at Disneyland Resort, it might seem like there’s no place for the simplest of treats: good ol’ fashioned Jell-o.
But that’s where White Water Snacks steps in — in the most magical way possible. Because White Water Snacks has Mickey-shaped Jello!
Woo! Back it up! Our Disneyland correspondent Heather (follow her @DiningInDisney!) stopped in for a snack recently, and discovered these jiggly mouse-shaped treats in a cooler in the grab-and-go section.
Also in this cooler are cream for coffee and packets of butter for other dishes — right next to a whipped cream canister.
Heather being the intrepid Disneyland snacker that she is spotted an opportunity immediately. The thick strawberry Jello was a decent portion and honestly as cute as one might reasonably expect Jello to be.
And now she had the perfect Jello food hack: cover that sweet treat in delicious whipped cream!
From every angle this has childhood favorite written all over it — only it’s not just a bowl of hastily spooned Jello. It’s Mickey!
Okay, so technically this is called Mickey Strawberry Gelatin, but we like to keep simple things simple: it’s Jell-o. And it’s delightful!
And that’s how Mickey Jello with Whipped Cream was born! And we love it in every way!
We’re so happy that the simplest food pleasures persist, even in the face of the incredible creativity and skill that brings pastries and desserts to life at the Disney Parks. And a food hack involving Whipped Cream? Always a win!

Would live to see mickey jello come to disneyworld. If it is available in disneyworld, where can it be found?
Thanks

I am so surprised that we haven’t seen this classic dessert in a Mickey shape years ago, Heather! Is it thin like regular jello or is it thickened like the kind kids can pick up and eat with their hands? You know, what they call jello- blocks.

Essie, this is definitely on the thicker side!
