Fat Tested Travel Blog/Gluten-Free Snacks at Disney World: What You Can Eat in 2027

The good news first: many of the most famous Disney snacks are gluten-free. Nobody in your group has to skip the fun ones. Here is what to grab, where to find it, and which treats need a question before you buy.

Snacks you can count on

  • Dole Whip. At Aloha Isle in Magic Kingdom, Tamu Tamu in Animal Kingdom and other spots. Get it in a cup, not a cone.
  • Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bars. Individually wrapped and sold at carts in every park. Ask to see the wrapper.
  • Plain popcorn from the park carts. Flavored popcorn varies, so ask.
  • Frozen slushes and frozen lemonade. Ask to see the packaging.
  • Snacks With Character. Packaged allergy-friendly bars and sweets from Enjoy Life and OMG, sold in shops across the resort.
  • Erin McKenna's packaged treats at the Gardens Kiosk in Animal Kingdom, Everything POP at Pop Century and other resort markets.

The big one: gluten-free churros

The churros at Nomad Lounge in Animal Kingdom are the gluten-free snack people plan whole days around. They come from a dedicated fryer. You get five half-size churros with guava and vanilla sauces, for about $11.

Park by park

  • Magic Kingdom. Dole Whip at Aloha Isle, ice cream bars from the carts, plain popcorn, and ice cream in a cup at the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor. Main Street Confectionery popcorn flavors vary, so ask.
  • EPCOT. Maple popcorn from the Canada cart, kakigori shaved ice at Kabuki Cafe in Japan, and macarons at Les Halles Boulangerie in France. The macarons are made in a shared bakery, so celiac guests should ask first.
  • Hollywood Studios. Plain popcorn, ice cream in a cup at Hollywood Scoops, and fruit and packaged snacks at Anaheim Produce.
  • Animal Kingdom. Grilled corn on the cob at Harambe Fruit Market, Dole Whip at Tamu Tamu, and packaged Erin McKenna's cookies and brownie cupcakes at the Gardens Kiosk.

Disney Springs: the whole bakery is gluten-free

Erin McKenna's Bakery NYC at The Landing is a fully gluten-free kitchen. Everything in the case is gluten-free and vegan, so a celiac guest can point at anything: doughnuts, cupcakes, cookies, cinnamon rolls and cake pops. Stock up for the flight home.

Snacks to ask about first

  • Waffle cones and crunchy toppings. The ice cream is usually fine in a cup. The cone and toppings are not.
  • Carts and kiosks. Many do not have allergy menus. Stick to packaged items you can read.
  • Festival booths. Disney says EPCOT festival booths do not have separate allergy kitchens. Confirm at every booth and skip anything fried unless they can tell you how.

Bring your own

Disney lets you bring your own food into the parks. A few safe snacks in your bag mean a long line at an allergy counter never ruins a day.

At Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party, ask at the treat stations for the allergy-friendly treats.
