food IS a theme park
It’s the holiday season, and that means there are sweet treats EVERYWHERE in Disney World!

But, if you can’t make it to Disney World for the holidays, no worries — you can bring the Disney to your home! We’ve gathered some of our favorite Disney cookie recipes for you to make this holiday season, so let’s take a look!
What’s the best part about Christmas and the holiday season at Disney World?
Christmas Tree at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Arguments can be made for the decorations or the entertainment, or even Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. Some others might even say the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. But one really strong contender? The gingerbread displays at Disney World’s Deluxe Resorts!
Listen, the amount of holiday sweets we’ve eaten as a company in the past few weeks is enough to keep half the dentists in America in business…
So many sweet treats!
…but we’re not stopping now! We’ve tried sweets all around the Disney World parks and resorts as Christmas, Hanukkah, and Thanksgiving treats arrived, and now it’s time to hit up ANOTHER gingerbread display to see what they’ve got in store. Ho ho ho, let’s go!
Disneyland Resort is READY for the holidays, y’all.

It’s officially the holiday season in Disney World, and there are all kinds of ways to celebrate.
The Gingerbread House is OPEN!
You can check out Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, see the decorations in the parks, take a look at the merchandise, and more. One of the fun things to see on your holiday trip to Disney World are the gingerbread displays. The giant gingerbread house just went up in Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, and we’re checking out the treats that are sold out of it!
There are so many ways to celebrate the holiday season in Disney World — and not all of them require a ticket.
Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party
If you have the budget, you can check out all the decorations inside each Disney Park, or even buy a ticket for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, but you can also enjoy some of the most iconic holiday displays inside Disney World hotels! One such display is now officially open and we’re taking you with us to check it out.
Pull out the Mariah Carey and dump out the pumpkin spice friends, the holiday season is basically HERE. And you know what comes with the holidays? GINGERBREAD!
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
You might be well aware of the holiday merchandise you can get online, and the holiday decor and snacks that pop up in the parks, but if you aren’t going to Disney World’s hotels to celebrate the season, you’re doing it WRONG.
The holidays are already in full swing in Disney World, with decorations, merchandise, and ride overlays in the parks. If you’re visiting for the holiday season, don’t forget to check out the Disney World HOTELS as well — some of the coolest decorations and most delicious snacks can be found there!

It may not feel like it yet wherever you’re from, but the holiday season is in full swing!
Magic Kingdom’s Christmas Tree!
Disney World already started putting up decorations (including the enormous Christmas tree in Magic Kingdom), holiday ride overlays are back, and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party starts soon.
