Besides the Smores and the Frozen cokes at DHS, what other yummy treats do they have? I know how I want to spend my snack credits at MK, EP, and AK but coming up blank on DHS.

Starring Rolls Cafe, I just looked it up on the map using your directions. Thanks!

And I just noticed you were the person who posted about Strawberry Whips at Enchanted Grove. Thank you so much for telling us!!! My DS5 loves everything strawberry and he'll be very excited to know he can get Strawberry Whips there.

Starring Rolls is a good one, but that's not what I had in mind. It's right after Strarring Rolls, if memory serves me right, it has a villians theme to it!

They make a round ball type but it's just not the same. My son was disappointed as he learned at an early age ( taught by his older cousin) to eat his way around the park. It's a little hard to take home a Dole Whip or ice cream Mickey on a Stick!!!!
Are you sure on this one? When we were there in May (at the Confectioners Store on Main Street) they were making them right in front of us and slapping that wonderful sticker saying FRESH on the ginormous Mickey heads. I hope this hasn't changed.

I was looking for the rectangular rice crispys that you were able to buy in the bakery on Main St.in the Magic Kingdom. They had 3 versions --plain, chocolate and chocolate with peanut butter. I asked one of the cast members and he said that those were being made off property and that the chocolate and peanut butter ones were no longer available. They, of course, were my son's favorite. They do still have the larger one in the shape of mickey and they now make a small rice crispy ball that they drizzle chocolate over. It's just not the same!!! We were there in Jan. and I was able to get them then so this has changed since then. My son is a chef and can make anything he wants but this was something special that he always loved and it was the ONLY thing he had asked me to get!!!! He did say that the new ones just don't taste the same. Oh well......

I always get the candied almonds located in Adventure Land beside Pirates or in EPCOT at the entrance to the World Show Case. These stay fresh for a while so I can carry them in my back pack around the parks.
They also used to have orange Tigger Bars like the strawberry "Mickey Bars", but I haven't seen those recently.

The Mickey Rice Crispy Bars are still made on site. The chocolate dipped Rice Crispy Treats are made off site and shipped in. You can tell the difference. Get the non-dipped ones, they taste much better.

Here's another one I think I'm going to really like: Freshly cut potato chips.

Friar's Nook in Fantasyland will (is already?) sell them with or without the options of cheese, bacon and ranch, cheese and chili.
We are all a little weird
And life's a little weird,
And when we find someone whose
Weirdness is compatible with ours,
We join up with them and fall in
Mutual weirdness and call it Love.”
― Dr. Seuss
