Disney4me Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago Let’s see how these purple Disney World snacks stack up! Ube Yum Yum Coconut Cookie We’re constantly checking in with our favorite snacks around Disney World, from our top picks by park to Dole Whip power rankings. If you’re on the hunt for a purple treat to beautify your Instagram feed, today’s snack round-up is for you! Let’s take a look at six purple snacks we recently tried in Disney World — including our FAVORITE of the bunch, which also happens to be the cheapest! Tweedledee Egg Salad Sandwich We recently headed to the newly reopened Garden View Lounge — Tea Experience at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort to check out everything this swanky experience has to offer. The tea experience is pretty pricey at $79 per adult or $49 per child, and it comes with a selection of small bites all themed to Alice in Wonderland. There are some seriously eye-catching eats included, like the Tweedledee Egg Salad Sandwich, which is a traditional egg salad on beet bread with a vibrant magenta color! Tweedledee Egg Salad Sandwich Even though we enjoyed lots of the other small bites, the Tweedledee Egg Salad Sandwich honestly wasn’t our favorite. It had a hint of sweetness from the beet bread and was served with crumbled bacon, which added a nice saltiness, but we weren’t wowed by the flavor overall and thought the cute presentation was the best part. Afternoon Tea Tower Basically, if you’re already interested in checking out the Garden View Lounge Tea Experience, the Tweedledee Egg Salad Sandwich is worth sampling along with the other selection of foods, but we wouldn’t call this purple snack destination-worthy in itself, especially considering the cost! Blueberry Lemonade Cake Slice If you’ve been following us for awhile, you’ve probably heard about our love of Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney Springs for their incredible (and MASSIVE) cookies and cake slices! On top of their regular menu, Gideon’s also releases limited-time flavors that rotate monthly, one of which was the Blueberry Lemonade Cake Slice. Blueberry Lemonade Cake This beauty is a lemon curd swirl cake with fresh blueberry jam, graham cracker crust crumble, and a vibrant blueberry buttercream — and there’s no food coloring in it, so that gorgeous purple color is all-natural! We absolutely loved the flavor combination here and the texture was perfectly moist and fresh. Look at the fluffiness! Plus, at $11, it was actually a pretty reasonable price for such a HUGE slice of cake! Unfortunately, since this was a seasonal flavor, it was only available on Wednesdays and Saturdays in May this year. But Gideon’s regularly brings back their limited-time flavors in following years, so we’re keeping our fingers crossed that this one will return again! Star Command Popcorn This year, we’ve seen lots of Toy Story 5-inspired treats around the Disney parks in celebration of the movie’s release! There were a few purple snacks included in the list, like the Star Command Popcorn that we grabbed at Market and Popcorn & Snacks at Disney’s Hollywood Studios for $9.49. Star Command Popcorn It’s a pre-packaged kettle corn mix with green apple and grape flavors. The purple popcorn had a mild artificial grape flavor that reminded us of sweet candy. The green pieces were more sweet than sour, with some tartness showing up in the aftertaste. Overall, the general sweet kettle corn flavor was more powerful than the fruity flavors, though. Star Command Popcorn This was a solid on-the-go snack for fans of kettle corn, and even though it might not have been at the very top of our list of favorite purple treats, we definitely weren’t mad about it! Zurg Overlord Shake Speaking of Toy Story 5 treats, we also snagged the Zurg Overlord Shake from Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies in Magic Kingdom for $9.29. It’s a vanilla shake with cherry coating, purple marshmallow-flavored whipped cream, sprinkles, and a Zurg-themed chocolate piece. Zurg Overload Shake The vanilla shake was exactly the classic flavor you’d expect. The coating didn’t crack enough to combine with the shake, and when we had a bite, it was mostly flavorless. But that purple marshmallow whipped cream was actually the star of the show – it was both flavorful and gave the shake a fun appearance! Motonnui Ube Sundae Another recent movie release that got its own selection of celebratory snacks is the live-action Moana. We tried the Motonnui Ube Sundae from Anandapur Ice Cream Truck in Animal Kingdom for $7.29, and it was definitely one of our favorite purple snacks of the year! Motonui Ube Sundae It’s made with ube soft-serve topped with tropical fruits, coconut, raspberry crumbs, and macadamia, and we loved how unique the flavor and texture combo was! The ice cream was super smooth and had an incredibly deep flavor, and both the firm fruit and slightly crunchy coconut added a lovely mix of textures. Gorgeous and delicious If you’re looking for a purple treat that’s gorgeous, tasty, AND unique, this one checks all the boxes! Ube Yum Yum Coconut Cookie We’ve been impressed with most of the cookies we’ve tried at Earl of Sandwich in Disney Springs, and the Ube Yum Yum Coconut Cookie was no exception! It’s a vibrant take on the classic sweet treat that’s just as delicious as it is eye-catching! Ube Yum Yum Coconut Cookie This is certainly no ordinary cookie — it’s packed with bright purple hues that hint at the tropical flavors inside, and its soft, chewy texture makes it feel a little extra special for an on-the-go indulgence. The subtle, earthy sweetness of ube pairs beautifully with the rich, toasty notes of coconut. It’s not overly sweet, and the coconut adds a bit of tropical crunch that gives the cookie a nice balance of texture and flavor. Ube Yum Yum Coconut Cookie And to make it even better, at $5.79, it’s actually the cheapest purple snack on our list! Talk about a win-win!
