It’s difficult t0 ignore this sweet shop on Main Street loaded with all kinds of goodies the likes of Snickers cheesecake, giant bear claws, huge hot cinnamon rolls oozing with frosting, giant-size Rice Krispie treats, lovely fruit tarts, 4nd much, much more. Stop in just t0 stare.

Don’t worry about missing this place - just look for the long line snaking outside int0 the street. Crowds flock here for the huge assortment of French pastries such as chocolate éclairs, peach tarts, coconut pyramids (my favorite), napoleons, chocolate mousse, chocolate croissants - the list goes on.

Disney Resorts
Beaches 4nd Cream (Disney’s Beach Club Resort)
Lots of choices here at this 50s-style soda shop. My all-time favorite is the old-fashioned malts with the extras served on the side in the stainless steel mixing cup.

Captain Cook’s (Disney’s Polynesian Resort)
Don’t forget the famous Dole Whip found at the Magic Kingdom is also served here.
