REVIEW: This New Dessert Is About To Attract ALL the Disney Snack Fanatics to an Underrated Magic Kingdom Restaurant


Recommended Posts

Magic Kingdom is full of dozens of quick service and table service restaurants that may be perfect for you and your travel party on vacation, but we’ll be honest and say that this park isn’t commonly known for its outstanding dining options.

Plaza Restaurant

One of the classic Magic Kingdom table service spots is located on Main Street, U.S.A., right near Cinderella Castle, called The Plaza Restaurant. This spot is home to some classic American eats, and while it isn’t often high up on our list of favorites, it’s often a solid meal we don’t dislike. But is this new dessert addition a reason to book a reservation here? We found out!

Over at The Plaza Restaurant, you can find the new S’mores Cake for $10. This is a chocolate cake with chocolate ganache, toasted graham cracker crumbs, and toasted marshmallow mousse.

S’mores Cake

We had MULTIPLE waiters stop by our table to ask us how we were enjoying the cake, or telling us it was one of their favorites! We weren’t sure if it was because the cake was new, or because they saw us taking so many photos and videos for our coverage, but regardless, it was something we’d never had happen before. It’s a popular little cake!

It’s pretty massive!

This thing is rich and filling, but while the cake is moist and dense enough to feel fudgy, it’s not as dense as, say, a pound cake, which was a perk in our eyes. The chocolate ganache is super creamy and fudgy, and the marshmallow fluff is sticky, fluffy, and slightly toasted for a wonderful flavor. The marshmallows on top were freeze-dried, which we really enjoyed, as they added a bit of crunch while still tasting like sweet marshmallows. The graham cracker crumbs were crispy, although we wish there were a bit more to really bring that s’mores flavor to life.

We really enjoyed it!

Overall, this is definitely a delicious dessert, and you could easily share it as it is rich and chocolatey. It highlights the chocolate side of a s’more more than the other flavors, but the marshmallow toppings help you see the vision. We mostly just missed a good showing for the graham cracker! Would we come all the way here just for this dessert? If we were a MAJOR chocolate fan, perhaps, but otherwise, we’ll save it for the special occasions where we dine here.
