When it comes to beating the heat at EPCOT, Walt Disney World’s most scorching park, indulging in cold sweet treats becomes less of a luxury and more of a necessity.
Fortunately, amidst the bustling pavilions and attractions, EPCOT offers a delightful array of frosty delights that not only refresh but also tantalize the taste buds.
La Gelateria Toscana
At the gelato stand in Italy, guests are transported to the cobblestone streets of an Italian piazza, where the tantalizing aroma of freshly churned gelato fills the air.
With flavors ranging from traditional classics like creamy pistachio and indulgent chocolate to innovative combinations like tangy amarena cherry, there’s a scoop to satisfy every palate. Each spoonful offers a burst of refreshment, making it the perfect way to cool down while immersing oneself in the rich culinary heritage of Italy.
Kabuki Cafe
In Japan, the shaved ice cart, Kabuki Cafe, beckons visitors with its colorful array of frosty delights. Nestled near a serene garden setting, guests can escape the heat and indulge in a Japanese tradition dating back centuries. The delicate, feather-light ice shavings are infused with an assortment of flavors, from the floral notes of cherry blossom to the tangy zest of yuzu. With each spoonful, guests are treated to a refreshing taste of Japan’s vibrant culinary culture.
For a unique (to us, it’s actually pretty common around the world) twist: Try your shaved ice with a drizzle of sweetened condensed milk! It sounds wild, but trust us, it’s delicious!
L’Artisan de Glaces
L’Artisan des Glaces, nestled within the picturesque streets of the France pavilion, invites guests to savor the artistry of frozen desserts. Here, traditional French techniques meet innovative flavor combinations, resulting in a menu that delights the senses.
Whether indulging in a scoop of velvety sorbet or savoring an ice cream sandwich crafted with freshly baked macarons, guests are transported to the quaint cafes of Paris, where every bite is a celebration of sweet sophistication.
The Ice Cream Martini
Funnel Cake Stand
Finally, at the Funnel Cake Stand in the America pavilion, guests are greeted with the nostalgic scent of fried dough and powdered sugar, signaling a quintessential American indulgence. Go the extra mile and get your funnel cake topped with some nice cold ice cream. There is always the option of classic vanilla, but this stand also offers favorites like cookies n’ cream, and occasionally seasonal flavors.
Flavors we have seen in the past include red velvet and lemon blueberry.
Conclusion
If you visit EPCOT any time during the summer months, be sure to seek out one of the refreshing, frozen treats on this list. You won’t be disappointed!
