There is nothing quite like a Salt & Straw stop to reset your day at the Disney Parks, especially when the weather is warm and your feet are begging for a break. Whether you are strolling through Downtown Disney at the Disneyland Resort or soaking up the energy of Disney Springs at the Walt Disney World Resort, Salt & Straw’s new ice cream flavors are the perfect excuse to pause, cool down, and treat yourself. These limited-time scoops are cold, refreshing, and packed with creative flavor combinations that feel just as fun as they are indulgent. If you are looking for a snack stop that truly hits the spot and leaves you already planning your next visit, this new lineup is absolutely worth a taste. Let’s take a look:
Raspberry White Chocolate Cheesecake
Stick With Me’s Susanna Yoon’s chocolate bonbons are tiny miracles of precision and artistry so deliciously detailed they could only come from the mind of a pastry chef. Our tribute to her indulgent ‘cheesecake bonbon’ begins with bright, creamy raspberry and strawberry ice cream. Waves of white chocolate cream cheese ganache – made with lemon, vanilla, and rich cream – mingle with golden graham cracker crumbs, while swirls of tart raspberry jam tie it all together in a scoop of expertly-layered, mouthwatering flavors worthy of any pastry case.
Cocoa Nib Root Beer Float (v)
For over 10 years, San Francisco’s Dandelion Chocolate has made it their mission to showcase single-origin cacao, experimenting with every step from bean-to-bar. It was this spirit of experimentation that first inspired their recipe for cocoa nib root beer – a twist that perfectly blends cacao’s earthy bitterness and root beer’s bright, spicy sweetness. Sassafras, mint, and clove meet bittersweet Ugandan cacao nibs in a botanical, cocoa-kissed tonic that we spin into a velvety sorbet. And because more chocolate is always better, we fold in a ribbon of their Ecuadorian single-origin 70% dark chocolate fudge for an extra-rich finish.
Chocolate Almond Gold Bar
This Seattle-born delicacy comes from one of the country’s most renowned chocolatiers, Fran Bigelow. Known for her hand-crafted creations, Fran’s Chocolates lovingly hand-trims every chocolate-coated, caramel-filled Almond Gold bar – a uniquely personal touch that sets her craft apart. In our homage, we fold delicate hunks of Fran’s iconic confection into silky salted vanilla ice cream along with ribbons of burnt caramel and dark chocolate stracciatella. Every swirl, chunk, and ribbon crafted with as much care as Fran’s own chocolates.
Cake Batter Chocolate Fudge
Created with the multi-talented Jonathan Grahm of Compartés, this flavor revels in his signature playful approach to chocolate – luxurious textures and flavors, all wrapped up in technicolor whimsy. Sumptuous cake batter ice cream is dotted with celebratory rainbow sprinkles and ‘frosted’ with a thick swirl of toasty brown butter chocolate fudge. Every indulgent spoonful is a joyful mash-up of the handcrafted decadence and delightful imagination that makes Compartés chocolate completely unforgettable.
Chocolate Toasted Buttermilk Torte
For Sebastian Cisneros of Portland’s Cloudforest, chocolate is personal – his single-origin cacao (sourced from his native Ecuador) often marries ingredients sourced from his home in the Pacific Northwest. Inspired by Cloudforest’s Nest bar, this scoop blends our one-of-a-kind honey milk chocolate frozen yogurt – sweetened with local Oregon honey – with ribbons of caramelized, toasted-buttermilk fudge. Spiced graham cracker crumbles add a cozy, malty swirl, while hunks of dense, ganache-y chocolate cake make it a decadent celebration that’s definitely worth writing home about.
I don’t even need time to think about it. Raspberry White Chocolate Cheesecake, for the win. I’ll break my own low-sugar daily routine for this one, no questions asked.
