REVIEW: Is Disney's New Candy Bar Sundae BOTH Delicious and Disappointing?

Okay, so sometimes Disney comes up with some unique snack ideas. For example, we’re always up for trying new DOLE Whip combos (and we haven’t seen a DOLE Whip yet that we don’t love).

The Golden Horseshoe

In Disneyland, we sometimes get some unique churro flavors (although, let’s face it, the Fluffernutter Churro is GOALS). There’s also the Churro Toffee that combines churro flavors with toffee and somehow makes both even better. Of course, we also love when Disney takes its classic Mickey beignet and creates some new flavors. Well, Disney has done it again — mixing some ideas to create a new snack, but this time, it’s just not really imaginative.

So in Disneyland, you’ll find The Golden Horseshoe in Frontierland. Right now, a special treat called the “So M&M’S® and TWIX® walk into a Candy Bar” Sundae, which is Chocolate Chip Ice Cream topped with a Hot Fudge Drizzle, Chocolate Chip Cookies, Chocolate Bar Pieces, M&M’S Milk Chocolate candies, TWIX cookie bar pieces, Whipped Cream and a Cherry for $9.79. WHEW, that is a LOT of candy.

“So M&Ms and Twix walk into a Candy Bar” Sundae

So OF COURSE, we had to order it. So it’s basically ice cream with candy thrown on top of it. But if you love chocolate, there’s a LOT of it represented in this treat. SO MUCH CHOCOLATE. We will say we were disappointed that they seemed to have skimped on the M&M’s on our sundae. Also, as you can see, our sundae didn’t come with the cherry it was supposed to have.

Loaded with cookies and candy

So, yeah, this was actually pretty tasty because yes, we love chocolate. But it wasn’t anything special. It just felt like Disney ran out of ideas and just thought it would throw all its extra candy left over from last year’s Oogie Boogie Bash on top of ice cream and call it a new snack. Maybe we would’ve liked it better if they’d given it the Dairy Queen Blizzard treatment and had the candy and cookie pieces IN the ice cream.
