food IS a theme park
We’ve been pretty busy running around Disney World trying out all the 50th anniversary celebration snacks.

But just in case you forgot, it’s still Halloween, too, meaning that there are still TONS of Halloween treats to try. So far, we’ve had an amazing Halloween margarita flight, Halloween donuts, and a Halloween cupcake or two (or three…)! But today we’re singing the praises of two of our favorite returning spooky snacks!
PLEASE NOTE:
If you’re coming to this article from another website that linked to it, be aware that Candy Corn soft serve is still available at the Magic Kingdom (get it at Auntie Gravity’s all day, not just during the party), but it is primarily vanilla flavored. The orange is slightly candy corn flavored, but gets overpowered by the vanilla. If you’d like to see what goodies are available at the Halloween Party this year, please take a look at this Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party Treats post and this video. Thanks!

The Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has returned to the Magic Kingdom. On select nights through November 1, 2013, this fall event at Walt Disney World offers exclusive fun to ticketed guests. DFB Author Wendy takes us on a tour of this year’s party treats…
Trick or Treat?! As fellow Disney Food Fans, I’m guessing you are definitely after the TREATS! And guests at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party have an extra assortment to choose from, exclusive to the Party!
Welcome sign!
Upon entering the Magic Kingdom, Party guests are presented with a Trick-or-Treat bag and a park map detailing special events of the evening, including designated Treat spots to put those bags to use.

This park map is your key to finding the exclusive goodies! You’ll find the list of stops on the back.

Let’s have a taste!
First stop: Storybook Treats in Fantasyland!
This little spot specializes in soft serve ice cream concoctions, so it makes sense that this is the home of Candy Corn Soft Serve.
Candy Corn Cone Sign
Your choice of cup or cone of blended orange and vanilla soft serve comes sprinkled with crushed pieces of (what else?) Candy Corn!

The sign says “Vanilla Soft Serve,” but the orange ice cream definitely lends a subtle creamsicle taste that was really enjoyable!
People typically fall into one of two camps: there are Candy Corn People, and there are Non-Candy Corn people. I am a Non-Candy Corn person (just not a fan of the texture), so I wasn’t especially excited by this offering. However, the ice cream itself was so yummy, and the candy corn lent it such festivity that I gave this one a thumbs-up!
Next stop: Gaston’s Tavern in New Fantasyland!

A word of caution: you may want to hold off before scrolling down your screen and brace yourself, because what you’re about to see is VERY. SCARY.
Ghosts on display
Okay, not really… it’s just cute! Gaston’s is serving up Ghost Cupcakes!
