Why You Need To Know “Steve Hates Sprinkles” Before You Visit Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney World

We just heard a super delicious SECRET!

The Gideon’s store in Disney Springs

Gideon’s Bakehouse is a fan-favorite bakery located in Disney Springs. It’s famous for nearly-half-pound cookies, GIGANTIC cake slices, and unique cold brew flavors. Today ONLY, you can get a NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN treat, but only if you know the secret code!

Gideon’s announced on Instagram that there’s a secret cake slice available at both the Disney Springs and East End Market locations!

The secret slice won’t be on display (cause it’s a SECRET, of course), so to get it, you need to tell an employee “Steve Hates Sprinkles.” That might seem like an odd secret passcode, but it’s actually true. The owner of Gideon’s Bakehouse — Steve Lewis — does hate sprinkles on his desserts.

Although Steve is not a fan of sprinkles on treats, he said that the amazing team at Gideon’s created the Banana Split Cake (which DOES have sprinkles on it), and it was so delicious that he let the sprinkles thing slide.

This secret Banana Split slice is made of layers of strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate cake, smothered in banana buttercream, filled with housemade candied peanuts, and topped with a chocolate-covered cherry. WOW.

Here’s the catch: you need to get this cake TODAY, because it won’t be available after the shops close tonight!⁣ Depending on what time of day you visit, you may need to join a virtual queue to go inside, and the wait could be multiple hours long. You’ll need to visit the bakehouse and talk to the employees outside to join the queue.

Usually there’s just a standby line in the morning and later at night, but keep in mind that if you go at night, you run the risk of the secret cake slices being sold out.
