We headed over to Disney’s BoardWalk to see what kind of changes we could spot and to catch up on all the fun Halloween activities that the resort would be offering today. Check out what we found in this edition of What’s New at Disney’s BoardWalk!

Food Updates at Disney’s BoardWalk

Ample Hills Creamery

The BoardWalk has a lot of great dining options and since we happen to have a sweet tooth, we love to head over to Ample Hills Creamery. SO, imagine how excited we were when we spotted this messy and delicious-looking Ice Cream Taco!

Ample Hills Ice Cream Tacos

This ice cream stuffed taco is $8.99 and comes with unlimited toppings! Yes… UNLIMITED! The Cast Members really load these treats up with ice cream so you’ll want to be hungry if you stop in for one.

Of course, there’s one MASSIVE sweet at Ample Hills that isn’t for eating… This super cool Sleepy Hollow display! The chefs handcrafted this awesome Halloween confection and it’s made entirely from chocolate.

BoardWalk Bakery

Next, we stopped at the BoardWalk Bakery to see what kind of fun treats (or tricks!) we could find! First off was this yummy-looking Pumpkin Cheese Danish for $3.99 or a snack credit if you’re on the Disney Dining Plan. It came complete with chocolate cobweb. Spooky!

We also noted that some limited time treats were still in the case at the Bakery like the Bat Caramel Cream Puff for $4.29. The Caramel Cream Puff is usually in the case, but you can likely expect those bat wings and the edible purple sugar to vanish after today.

The tricky Mickey Halloween Topper is still sitting on the Banana Pudding as well. If you want to get this treat in its spookiest version, you may wanna stop in today and nab it for $4.79.

For guests with dietary constrictions, we also found these Erin McKenna’s Bakery Brownie Bites that are gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free, refined sugar-free, and egg-free.

BoardWalk Joe’s

Next, we monster-mashed our way over to BoardWalk Joe’s to check-in on any new eats. Boy, were we excited to find that they now have a jalapeño cheese sauce for their Mickey Pretzels AND it’s made fresh every day!

They also had new Jalapeño Stuffed Pretzels so if you like a little heat, BoardWalk Joe’s has you covered! You can get either jalapeño offering for $6.79.

BoardWalk Merchandise Updates

Lobby

There are a couple new merchandise items around Disney’s BoardWalk as well, but we’re definitely still seeing a strong Halloween theme.

In the lobby, we did notice that the FuelRod kiosk had been updated to announce the $3 swapping fee that goes into effect tomorrow.
