Happy Friday Everyone! I am so close to having this trip report complete! Let's see how far I get today!
Day Nine: The Desserts!
So, I left us off with heading to the dessert party. We waded our way across the walkway and re-checked in at the podum. They checked our name off and escorted us to a table. We were one of the first in, and let the girls choose the table that they wanted. They choose one against the wall. They also gave a quick run down of what was available to eat as we walked by.
We put our stuff down and headed for the food!

I did not take buffet pics. I feel weird taking pictures at buffets. Plus I still have to help Gwen get food sometimes, so it's a bit of a juggling act.
Untitled
But I "think" Andy might have taken some for me! These were little cheesecakes, I think.
Untitled
Some happily Ever After Cupcakes. They look like they are funfetti cake.
Untitled
Or maybe I came back up and took pictures later? These were one of my favorites. Gwen liked them as well. But Morgan hated it.
It was fresh pineapple sweetened somehow on the bottom with a mouse type topping. It was dole whip like... It didn't taste like dole whip but reminded me of it. If that makes sense.

Gwen loved these, they were super cute. Although a little weird to eat.

Here is Gwen giving a thumbs up to the desserts. I believe this was her first plate. She loaded up on macaroons.
Untitled
This was my first plate. I LOVE chocolate Covered Strawberries. They are one of my favorites! These were just that, chocolate covered strawberries.
The push pop on my plate was different than the mickey one. This one was smaller and had some crunchies in the middle. Kind of like the crunchies in a Carvel Cake but bigger. It was good but as an adult, it was weird to eat.
Untitled
The cupcake was a cupcake, but the chocolate on top was super cute!
Untitled
This was Morgan's first plate. I was suprised that she went for cheese on her first round.
This was Andy's first plate:
Untitled
Needless to say, he is more of a savory than sweet guy. He went straight for the egg rolls. He loved them, they were the cheeseburger egg rolls.
He also got an iced coffee. Which we really liked that there was already cold coffee there.
I don't have a picture of the drink selection, but there was hot coffee and tea, water, iced coffee and some juices. I do wish they had some soda as well. But I appricated the iced coffee.
Untitled
Andy had a SECOND plate that looked very much like the last plate... (Same iced coffee) Andy texted his sister this picture. And they text were texting back and forth a bit. During this, they discovered that we were going in August to Disney at the same time!
Untitled
My second plate I went more savory, and got a few egg rolls (which I also really liked) I also got some spinach dip. I liked the dip. It's nothing amazing but it was good. I totally appricate that there are some savory options and not just sweets.
Clearly I got another of the Pineapple Delight. And then they had a table with a CM "roasting" marshmellows on a small fire and then rolling them in graham crackers/chocolate bits. This was really good, as it was freshly "roasted"
Untitled
Gwen's second plate... she was all about the macrooons.
Untitled
Morgan went sweeter her second time around. The item on the right is some sort of strawberry cake item. I don't remember if she liked it or not.
When we had walked in, the CM had mentioned a make your own cookie. And I remembered after 2 plates of goodies in. Ooops. But so I walked the girls back up to find where they were doing that.
Untitled
Morgan went back for a 3rd plate!!! That blue icing cookie was Morgan's Make your own Cookie.
And apparently there was some fresh fruit, which is also nice, even if Morgan was the only one who took advantage of that.
Untitled
This was Gwen's make you own cookie. Your Welcome! Doesn't it look delish?!? no?
At some point they started the 2nd show that they do on the castle. First off, I didn't even know this was a thing!!!! I tried to see some of it but from the upper seating area, which is where we were, you couldn't really see it.
We really loved the dessert party. It was a VERY low attended party. But at that point, I don't think it matters.
I mentioned to the girls that there were to-go cups for coffee and drinks to take with you. (Which I also really liked). And said they should fill them up with desserts to take to go. THEY LOVED THIS!!!
And got last plates and filled them up at the table. We were one of the last families to leave the area. We were just relaxing and enjoying our time. I was really suprised at how many people ate and left so fast. The park was still open, so I guess they wanted to ride some more rides. But we wanted to enjoy what we paid for.
Overall, I would recommend doing the dessert party at least once!
We finally headed out to do some rides before the park closed!
Up Next the end of our night!
