Okay, imagine this…close your eyes and think about walking by the Germany Pavilion in EPCOT. Now, if you’ve actually done this before, we bet you’re imagining that SMELL…that lovely smell of caramel wafting from Karamell-Küche. Yep, there’s a reason this caramel shop is ICONIC.
So, you’ll probably end up popping inside the shop for a snack, maybe something like that wonderful Werthers popcorn or some caramel squares. But right now, you can actually get a treat there that isn’t…well…it doesn’t have ANY caramel in it! Say what? Yeah, you can bet we had to stop by to check out that anomaly.
You can now get your choice of two Mamba Cakes at Karamell-Küche. Okay, so maybe you’re wondering why there’s a non-caramel treat here. Well, Mamba is a candy made in Germany (and you might have spotted the candy inside the shop, too). So Karamell-Küche decided to pay tribute to this candy by making a cake (can’t argue with that logic). You can get two flavors: orange and strawberry lemon. We opted for the Mamba Strawberry Lemon Cake for $6.49. (Note that we don’t currently see these cakes on the official menu or on Mobile Order in the My Disney Experience app.)
The cake itself is very dense and a little dry, but it’s filled with a creamy, fluffy frosting. The fruit flavors taste like candy, and by that, we mean they taste artificial, but we think that’s intentional. It’s like a cake flavored with candy. So it’s like eating a strawberry-lemon piece of candy as cake.
We’ll be honest, though, we are not fans of that fake flavor. If we wanted something that tastes like a Starburst, we’d just grab some Starburst. However, if you like that kind of flavor and want to try it in a cake, this could be for you. But there’s so much other yummy stuff at Karamell-Küche we’d prefer over this.
