REVIEW: This Disney Restaurant Has a New Menu, but Can We Recommend It?
We’re not lying when we say that Disneyland snacks just go HARD. Some of our favorite snacks can be found at Disney’s West Coast resort. From churro toffee to those fabulous churros to an amazing corn dog, when we get a chance to snack around Disneyland, we’re going to take it.
Well, one of our FAVORITE quick-service spots in Disneyland, Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe, has been closed for a little while. But Jolly Holiday just reopened with three NEW snacks, so we RAN to this spot on Main Street, U.S.A., to check them out — and what can we say? These snacks are #1!
So we often visit Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe for the infamous Matterhorn Macaroon, as well as that Toasted Cheese Sandwich (SO GOOD, y’all). But these three new treats are getting added to our “must eat” list for that location, too. Let’s start with the Donald Macaron, a macaron (as opposed to a macarOON) filled with Cherry Buttercream and Vanilla Bean Crème for $8.29. Much like the duck himself, this macaron is #1 (NOW, you get all our #1 references, right?). It’s SO cute, done up in Donald’s outfit colors, complete with his little hat and bowtie.
This macaron, which is served chilled, has a lovely flaky and crunchy texture. The shell is vanilla, although the blue part was white chocolate or maybe fondant. The cherry buttercream, though, is the star of this snack — it offers a tart dark cherry flavor. The flavors are fresh and the snack is fun — this one is a must for anyone who loves sweet treats and Donald!
We also got the new Pineapple Bundt Cake with Brown Sugar Crunch, topped with Pineapple Mousse, and finished with a Cherry for $6.79. This is a new favorite dessert here. It’s got a nice tart flavor, but it’s balanced out by the sugary glaze on top. The cake is moist and has little chunks of pineapple in it.
There wasn’t a lot of the mousse, but it offered a denser texture. This one is a must for those who love pineapple flavors — it’s fresh and tastes like REAL pineapple rather than something with artificial fruit flavoring.
Finally, we grabbed the Strawberry-stuffed Croissant with Strawberries, Pastry Cream, Strawberry Coulis and Powdered Sugar for $8.29. Y’all. This one is ALSO a winner. You get a lovely buttery croissant that’s extra sugary, thanks to the powdered sugar on top. Inside are some sweet strawberries with a creamy vanilla flavor from the pastry cream.
The coulis also has a nice light strawberry flavor. This tastes like spring. It’s sweet and fresh and a MUST if you like strawberries.
Overall, Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe has delivered on the snacks AGAIN, so you can guarantee we’ll be back to indulge our sweet tooth.
