The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers is a splurge-worthy restaurant in Disney World. That place is capital “F” FANCY. We’ll be the first to admit that for that high price, you do get some pretty spectacular menu items and a fantastic experience.

The Cake Bake Shop

We keep an eye on the menu to see when any new items debut, and our mouths immediately started watering when we learned that there was a new ice cream sundae available ONLY at the restaurant. Do you know what we did? That’s right, we immediately booked a reservation to tell you if this sundae is really worth the visit, and you may be surprised by what we found!

The new Millionaire Sundae is actually two prices. You can spend $74.99 if you want the fancy porcelain Swan Boat souvenir. But don’t worry — the $75 swan is optional. If you’re just in it for the sweets, you can get the sundae for $16.99 sans swan. Do we think that’s a cute idea? For sure, but to us, we can’t spend that kind of money for ice cream in a fancy bowl. But a $17 sundae at this fancy of a restaurant? We can get behind that!

Millionaire Sundae

Behold! The Millionaire Sundae! It’s made with a gluten-free brownie, chocolate sauce, caramel drizzle, homemade ice cream of your choice, whipped cream, and shortbread cookie pieces. Sounds amazing, right? Well, good news: this sundae was DELICIOUS! It’s practically swimming in Ghirardelli chocolate drizzle, and you’ve got the choice of vanilla or chocolate ice cream, as well as a choice between a gluten-free or walnut brownie. We chose vanilla ice cream and the walnut brownie, and with the caramel sauce and the shortbread cookie pieces crumbled in, it really does taste just like the Millionaire Cake or Millionaire Bar in the best way. HEAVEN!

Look at that brownie!

It’s incredibly rich and decadent, which works very well for this treat. The vanilla ice cream tasted like true, genuine vanilla (not that bland stuff) and gave us a sweet note on the backend of a rich, chocolate-forward treat.

We LOVED this ice cream

We think this is a great alternative for people not looking to spend $22 on a cake slice because this serving is indeed shareable, and we feel it’s a better deal. If you’re looking to save some money but want to try one of the desserts at this location, we think this is a great choice, however it’s important to note that at this time it’s NOT available at the bakery, only in the restaurant!

SO good!
