Is there anything better in life than being at Disneyland, wearing Disney Ears, and eating Disney Snacks? We think NOT! One of the best things about a Disney trip is being able to eat as many snacks and treats as you want and they are all Disney-themed! And the choices are endless, at every turn you are greeted with yummy sights and smells tempting your tastebuds and enticing tummy rumbles. Snacks and theme parks go hand in hand and boy,
Disney delivers endless choices! And despite regularly needing a sugar rush just to get you to your next ride or attraction, unfortunately, there are only so many hours in a Disney day and so many snacks but so little time to eat them all! Here are our Top 10 Snacks and Treats at Disneyland California in 2023 (including Disney California Adventure). In our opinion, here are the treats and snacks you simply HAVE to try at your next Disneyland California visit.
10. Blue Milk
- Price: $7.99 plus tax
- Location: Milk Stand, Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge, Disneyland Park
- Quick Service bar/ Cart
- Mobile Order Available
- View Menu
This one is for Star Wars fans! Make like Luke Skywalker and cool off with a refreshing, iced concoction loved by the Batuu locals. Blue Milk (or Green Milk) is now available for Star Wars fans to try at the Milk Stand in Galaxy’s Edge. Both are plant-based blends of coconut and rice infused with fruity flavors of pineapple and watermelon. The Green Milk option has a more citrus flavor with orange, passionfruit, and grapefruit. If you are a big Star Wars fan, you are not going to want to miss this treat.
You can also get this in Oga’s Cantina, served with a Sugar Cookie that is simply to DIE for!
9. Choco Smash Candy Bar
- Price: $7.99 plus tax
- Location: PYM Test Kitchen, Avengers Campus, Disney California Adventure
- Quick Service Themed Dining
- Mobile Order Available
- View Menu
Avengers Assemble! Because this celestial-sized treat is big enough to feed way more than one person (unless the Hulk is in your party). This big slab of chocolate was made with the super-hungry superhero in mind. Classed on the menu as a Dessert, it is easily big enough for 3- 4 people to share (especially if you want to save room for the other 8 snacks on this list!) The Choco bar is almost as wide as it is long with layers of brownie, nougat, peanuts, caramel, and peanut butter all cased in a thick wrapping of chocolate. It’s enough for anyone to feel like Ant-Man while holding it!
8. Churros at Cozy Cone Motel
- $6.29 plus tax
- Location: Cone 1 at Cozy Cone Motel, Radiator Springs, Disney California Adventure
- Quick Service
- Mobile Order Available
- View Menu
Ok, so there are Churros available all over Disneyland and Disneyland California Adventure. There is a Churros Cart in every section of Disneyland and 6 Churro Carts in Disneyland California Adventure. Disney Resort Guests eat 4.4 million Churros every year so what is so special about Churros at Cozy Cone Motel to make our Top 10 Disneyland treats list?
You can get Churros at Cozy Cone 1 for BREAKFAST. That’s right, while most food outlets at Disney California Adventure don’t open until 11 am, Cozy Cone Churros are available much earlier. So after you have successfully ridden Radiator Springs Racers after Rope Drop, you can reward yourself with a sweet treat for breakfast (you are at Disney, it’s not like you need an excuse anyway!) These classic churros come with warm cinnamon-infused syrup, making it the classic sweet treat.
Special Churro mention needs to go to the Smores Churros available from the churro cart near the Redwood Creek Trail. This classic churro is elevated by being dipped in graham crackers, with chocolate chips and warm gooey chocolate sauce. Also located in Disney California Adventure, it’s a tough choice between these and the ones from Cozy Cone Motel.
And while you are at the Cozy Cone, make sure you try out the incredible Bacon Mac ‘n’ Cheese – $9,99 served in a bread cone.
7. Schmoozie Shakes
- $12.99 plus tax
- Location: Schmoozies, Hollywood Land, Disney California Adventure
- Quick Service
- Mobile Order Available
- View Menu
Schmoozie Restaurant in Hollywood Land offers shakes and smoothies but it’s their cookies and cream milkshake that deserves a spot on our Top 10 Disneyland treats and snacks list. This cookie and cream flavored milk with soft serve ice cream is topped with whipped cream and 2 chocolate cream-filled cookie Mickey Ears. This is a treat that is totally insta worthy and literally looks as good as it tastes! There is no seating in Schmoozies so you will be walking around with your treat and yes, you will get stopped and asked where it came from; it looks that good! Their classic version has many seasonal variations and currently, the cookies and cream delight (pictured) is part of the Disney 100 offerings to celebrate 100 years of Disney!
If Giant indulgent Shakes are your thing then make sure you check out the Black Tap Craft Burgers & Shakes restaurant in Downtown Dinsey for some seriously Epic Crazy Shakes…The Burgers are pretty EPIC too!
6. Mickey Cookie
- $4.99 plus tax
- Location: Various at both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure including Pooh’s Corner, Trolley Treats, and Candy Palace
- Quick Service
- Mobile Order Unavailable*
Everything tastes better Mickey-shaped, right? Whether you go for the classic chocolate chip or the black-and-white version, these giant Mickey cookies are soft, sweet, and waaay too easy to eat (we planned to share the giant cookie but one of us ate it way too quickly!) This treat may seem a bit basic to be on a Top 10 list but really, have you even been to Disneyland if you don’t eat something Mickey-shaped? The Mickey-shaped crispy treats are also worth a mention, especially the Reeces Pieces peanut Butter version. Pair one of these with your Disney Starbucks for the ultimate sugar pick-me-up.
*There’s no Mobile Order or Menu at these locations as the treats are available from the candy counter so you can just pick them up and takeaway.
5. Raspberry Rose Macaron
- $6.49 plus tax
- Location: Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe, Disneyland
- Quick Service Bakery
- Mobile Order Available
- View Menu
Whether you call them Macaron or Macaroon, either way, these Raspberry Rose flavored Mickey-shaped treats taste amazing. They are big enough to share, which might be the way to go as the macarons are very sweet! The Raspberry rose cream filling is pure sugar yet at the same time, the Macaron casing is so light they are somehow moreish! The flavors of fruity raspberry and aromatic rose melt in your mouth making them the perfect Disney sweet indulgence. They are also beautifully created, another insta worthy treat!
4. Grey Stuff Cupcake
- $6.49 plus tax
- Location: Red Rose Taverne, Fantasyland, Disneyland
- Quick Service
- Mobile Order Available
- View Menu
Try the Grey Stuff, it’s delicious! And Disney’s real-life creation from this much-loved Beauty and the Beast treat is as good as Lumiere sings. Don’t believe me, ask the dishes (or at least my empty plate!) The cupcake has multiple classic American layers starting off with a cookie base, red velvet cake topped with an Oreos cookie and cream frosting and sprinkles. Just narrowly missing out on our top 3 spot, Be our Guest to miss this ultimate Disney treat but you will regret it, we promise!
3. Tigger Tail
- $4.99 plus tax
- Location: Poohs Corner, Critter County, Disneyland
- Take-away, Quick Service
- Mobile Order Unavailable*
The most wonderful thing about Tiggers is… Tigger Tails! These yummy Tigger treats are only available from Pooh’s Corner in Critter County. After your ride in your honey pot, bounce over to Pooh’s Corner opposite The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. Here you will find Pooh merchandise and a candy corner with many Disney treats including the Tigger tails. This gooey marshmallow treat is covered with soft caramel and coated in orange-flavored and orange-colored chocolate. We LOVE chocolate orange and marshmallows which is why this treat has made the top 3 of our Disneyland treats list!
*There’s no Mobile Order or Menu at these locations as the treats are available from the candy counter so you can just pick them up and takeaway.
2. Mickey Beignets
- $4.99- 3 pack, $8.49- 6 pack (plus tax)
- Location: French Market and Mint Julep Bar, New Orleans Square, Disneyland*
- Dine-In, Quick Service
- Mobile Service Available
- View Menu
Just missing out on the Top Spot in our Disneyland Treats Top 10 list is the iconic Mickey Beignets. These soft, pillowy Mickey-shaped dough goodness are served with a warm, rich caramel dipping sauce. Known for their generous sugar coating, eating these is guaranteed to be messy! You can see the beignet sugar trail on the floor just by the bar, it is almost a magical sight as fairy dust!
Mickey Beignets just HAVE to be washed down with a tangy, refreshing cup of Mint Julep, also available at the Mint Julep Bar. Mint Julep and Beignets go hand in hand so the Mint Julep doesn’t get its own spot on our Dusbeland Top 10 treats list but wholeheartedly deserves to share the Number 2 spot with the Mickey Beignets. The citrus taste of this drink is the perfect accompanist to the sugar-sweet beignets.
*From February 17th, 2023 the French Market and Mint Julep Bar will be closed for Reservations. While the restaurants are transformed into Tiana’s Palace, Mickey Beignets and Mint Julep will be available next door at the Royal Street Veranda
1. Dole Whip
And the Number 1 Snack and Treat available at Disneyland in 2023 is…
The Dole Whip!
- $6.49 plus tax
- Location: Tiki Juice Bar, Adventure Land, Disneyland
- Take-away, Quick Service
- Mobile Order Available

Why have we chosen the Dole Whip as the Number 1 Snack at Treat available at Disneyland? Well, this DOLE frozen treat is legendary. Made only with DOLE pineapples and vanilla ice cream it is like tasting sunshine in soft-serve form. It’s like Hawaii in a cup! Incredibly refreshing and rich and creamy, it is the right balance of citrus and sweet.
It’s the perfect cooling treat for a hot day at Disneyland Park. Chill down in the leafy surroundings of the Tiki Room with this ultimate tropical treat before braving a trip inside the Tiki Room, if you dare!
