Disney has already given us plenty of Halloween merchandise to tempt us this year, but apparently our closets weren’t enough. Now they’re coming for the snack cabinets, too. A new assortment of Disney Halloween candy, cocoa, popcorn, pretzels, and other treats is headed to Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort, and some of these are almost too cute to open.
Disney shared a first look at the seasonal collection, which ranges from a Mickey pumpkin bucket stuffed with candy corn to a Dr. Facilier chocolate bar filled with pistachio cream. There are also quite a few Disney Villains involved this time around – just right for Halloween.
Mickey & Minnie Pumpkin Buckets
Let’s start with these because LOOK AT THEM. The bright orange Mickey and Minnie pumpkin buckets have those adorable retro-looking faces that you’ll look forward to pulling out year after year. I can tell you right now that if my kids were still little, they’d have these for trick-or-treating this year.
The Pumpkin Mickey Mouse with Candy Corn comes filled with candy corn, while the Minnie version is paired with sour worms. Minnie even gets an orange bow on one ear because, of course, she does. And would you look at those eyelashes! So completely adorable.
I would absolutely buy one of these for the container and consider the candy a bonus.
Disney Villains Are Taking Over the Candy Aisle
Several treats lean heavily into the Disney Villains, including the Queen of Sour Hearts Gummies, featuring the Queen of Hearts and appropriately shaped sour candies. There’s also the hilariously named Extract of Pink Llamanade Candy Bits, packaged in a little potion-style bottle with Yzma artwork.
The upcoming Cursed Cocoa may be my favorite of the Villains offerings. It’s a milk chocolate cauldron filled with color-changing cocoa mix and mini marshmallows, and each package comes with a collectible mystery Villain potion card. Disney’s photos show cards featuring characters including the Evil Queen, Ursula, Maleficent, Jafar, Hades, and Dr. Facilier.
And speaking of the good doctor, the Dr. Facilier Bayou Bar is milk chocolate filled with pistachio cream. I’m not sure Dr. Facilier and pistachio were a combination I knew I needed, but here we are.
Halloween Hot Cocoa Is Happening
For something a little more traditional, Disney is also releasing a Salted Caramel Hot Cocoa Mix in a tall canister covered in vintage-style Mickey Halloween artwork. Mickey is even pictured as a pumpkin mug on the label, and the entire package has that old-school Halloween look Disney has been doing SO well lately.
Between that and the Cursed Cocoa cauldron, Disney is clearly expecting us to pretend it’s chilly outside while we’re at Walt Disney World in September. Crank up the air conditioning. We’ll make it work.
Pumpkin Spice, Caramel Apple & a Magic Mirror
The rest of the collection includes plenty of familiar fall flavors. Pumpkin Spice Frosted Pretzels come in another adorable retro Disney Halloween package, while Caramel Apple Popcorn combines two theme park snack staples into one very green bag of popcorn.
There’s also a Magic Mirror Crisped Rice Cereal Treat inspired by the Evil Queen’s Magic Mirror. It looks like Disney took the classic Parks cereal treat and gave it a Halloween makeover, complete with the Magic Mirror staring back at you from the top.
Disney hasn’t provided pricing or exact release dates for all of these goodies yet, but be sure to keep an eye out for them at Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. Some of these feel destined to sell out quickly, especially the Mickey and Minnie pumpkin buckets.
And yes, I know we’re supposed to be discussing what’s inside the containers. But have you SEEN Minnie with that little orange bow? I’m standing by my priorities.
