You can also enjoy a Mimosa Flight and even a Fromosa! And, if you need something to nosh on while you’re sipping your Mimosas you’ll find some pastries including Croissants, Muffins, and a Cheese Danish.

Speaking of sweet eats, let’s check out Taste Track, which is new to the Festival this year!

Taste Track

Taste Track is usually a snack kiosk open seasonally in Epcot’s Future World near the Test Track attraction, but this year it’s a 2018 Food and Wine Festival Food Booth serving specialty Croissant Doughnuts! And everything here is kid-approved (KA)!

Taste Track is part of the Food and Wine Festival for 2018!

Food:

Croissant Doughnut Tossed in Cinnamon Sugar (KA)
Croissant Doughnut with Chocolate and Marshmallows (KA)
Croissant Doughnut with Chocolate Hazelnut Cream (KA)
Croissant Doughnut with Sprinkles (KA)
Add Chocolate, Hazelnut, White Chocolate Raspberry or Vanilla Bean Gelato for an additional charge

Beverages:

Pancake Milkshake (KA)

We’re huge fans of Croissant Doughnuts here at DFB and we can’t wait to try ALL the specialty versions at Taste Track this year! And of course, we’ll be adding the gelato!

Croissant Doughnut

The kiddos will love the Pancake Milkshake at Taste Track — but parents, you might want to take a taste of the kids’ milkshake before you get your own. Based on my sips of it at a recent media event, I think the flavors here will appeal more to the kiddos. But you never know!

We’re excited to check out these three NEW booths – and all the other booths at this year’s Epcot Food and Wine Festival.
