These Are The Two Best Disney World Christmas Foods in Magic Kingdom We Tried

Walt Disney World has a large number of holiday items which we cover in our Christmas food guide. There are many different options this year along with a few repeat favorites.

Some of the most popular items this year have been the Gingerbread House Mickey popcorn bucket which we've seen popping up in the parks! We love a good Disney popcorn bucket and the holiday season brings the best ones to the theme parks.

Out of all the treats we tried at Magic Kingdom this week, including at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, we found two of the best ones you have to get during your holiday visit!

This Gingerbread Cake is Best Disney World Dessert

The Gingerbead Cake from Columbia Harbour House was a great treat at Magic Kingdom and is available the entire day. This cake was soft, moist, and had really good frosting.

This Gingerbread Cake felt really high-quality which lines up with what we come to expect from Columbia Harbour House which tends to be a great quick service option.

We Were Surprised With This Good Party Treat

We also tried the Holiday Turkey Burger at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe and it was a surprisingly good turkey burger! It wasn't dry at all and we really liked the Thanksgiving garnishes. The Turkey burger is topped with traditional stuffing, provolone, and cranberry chutney on a brioche bun.

Normally we don't take the time to eat during a ticketed event to focus more on the limited time offerings and freebies (like all the Christmas cookies!) but this was actually a very good treat! There are so many great food items at Walt Disney World for the holidays, make sure to look through our Disney World Christmas Food Guide and download our free printable.
