National Cupcake Day is today, and there are plenty of opportunities to celebrate here at Walt Disney World Resort! You’ll find all of these cupcakes and more throughout our theme parks and Disney Springs.
Epcot has several wonderful cupcakes for you to enjoy this holiday season. At Sunshine Seasons, you can find two fun cupcakes. The first is a new holiday cinnamon vanilla swirl cupcake with vanilla buttercream icicles. The second cupcake celebrates Epcot’s 35th anniversary and is a vanilla cupcake with peanut butter and jelly filling topped with edible flowers from The Land pavilion.
You can find another 35th Anniversary cupcake at Fountain View – the Spaceship Earth Cupcake consists of yellow cake with strawberry pastry cream filling, silver fondant and sprinkles! In addition, there is a festive Santa Mickey chocolate cupcake with chocolate mousse filling, red buttercream, chocolate cream cookie ears and holiday-colored crispy pearls.
