In all of my times traveling to Disney World, I have NEVER done a dessert party! For one, my husband does not really like dessert, and two, it’s pricey! When I saw that a new AFTER Fireworks Dessert Party was introduced, it intrigued me. I DREAD when fireworks are over and there’s a stampede to exit…crowds, pushing, etc. What better way to avoid all of that than eating some dessert!
I booked us online and the cost was $69 for an adult and $41 for a child.
Upon arrival, we headed to Tomorrowland Terrace area. There were two different check-in stands as there are multiple dessert parties that you can do. They issued us wristbands and then we had an escort to our reserved seating area in the Plaza Garden. (You can check in up to an hour prior to the fireworks!). Once inside the Plaza Garden area, it’s free seating/standing anywhere you can find space. It was not crowded at all when we got there. We ended up here:
View straight ahead.
To our left.
To our right.
Most people at this point were just sitting on the lawn waiting. We didn’t feel crowded or squished at all!
Behind us:
It’s starting!!
Our view was spectacular! On very crowded, hot days, this experience may be worth it just for the lack of stress with the fireworks viewing!
Once the Happily Ever After fireworks were over, we headed directly back to Tomorrowland Terrace for the dessert party (while everyone else was bum-rushing the exit!). We checked in again at the podium and showed our wristbands.
There were so many amazing options!
Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake!
POG Juice!
The seating area. You can see it wasn’t full at all!
Overall, WE LOVED IT! I would absolutely do it again (and skip dinner prior). With the egg rolls and spinach dip, that was a meal itself! I loved that everything was a small serving allowing us to sample multiple things. I especially loved the Ooey Gooey Toffee Cake with ice cream, the macaroons, and the chocolate covered strawberries.
I would love to hear if you have ever done a dessert party? Let me know in the comments!
