We have some sad caramel apple news to share with you…
Caramel apples have been DISAPPEARING off the shelves in Disney World! This deliciously chewy, crunchy, and sweet treat seems to be nowhere to be found and we did some digging to find out why.
One of our lovely readers messaged us asking about the lack of caramel apples in Disney World and we needed to find out for ourselves! Caramel apples are an iconic treat in the Disney parks and it would be a tragedy if they were being taken out of stores.
One of our reporters stopped by Bayview Gifts inside Disney’s Contemporary Resort, and, sure enough, there was not a single caramel apple to be seen! We were getting worried and needed to get to the bottom of this caramel apple fiasco.
We spoke with Cast Members and while they assured us that caramel apples aren’t disappearing for good, it will be a bit before we can enjoy one again. Apparently, due to quality issues, caramel apples needed to be pulled from the cases and it will be 10-15 days before they are back on display again. This is due to a recall of the caramel used when making the apples.
The Cast Member did mention that they weren’t sure if it was affecting all stores and we are curious if Karamell-Küche in EPCOT is also without caramel right now. We will continue to be on the lookout for any caramel apples and we will keep you updated on the great caramel apple disappearance.
While caramel apples are a favorite of guests, there are still plenty of delicious, sweet treats to get while you are in Disney World. Some of our favorites include the Warm Cinnamon Roll from Gaston’s Tavern in Magic Kingdom, the School Bread from Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe in EPCOT, churros from Nomad Lounge in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and the PB&J Milkshake at the Tune-In Lounge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

I was told no apples property wide from a cast member atGoofy’s candy kitchen Karamel Kutchen did not have them either.

Is it the caramel or the Apples that have a problem. Has Disney stopped selling Candy Apples too? I love candy apples but try to find one at Disney that is made with a Granny Smith Apple… the best.
Kristen McFarland says
We were told on August 8th at The Confectionery in MK that the caramel apples were gone because they were a seasonal item.
Mary-Margaret Adams says
I was in the parks Aug 1-7 and couldn’t find a Carmel apple in any of the parks , Disney springs or the resorts. I finally asked a cast member at the Confectionery and she was very vague and really didn’t want to answer me about why they weren’t available.
Lynda MacIntosh says
We were at Epcot yesterday 8/15 and bought 2 at Karamel Kutche in Germany!
Emily says
On the parks from 7/31-8/6. We were told two different things. No carmel, then no green apples due to supplier. They do have red apples though for the candy apples just not green apples. I don’t know what the truth is but I miss them.
