A short post for today talking about another American theme park treat – funnel cake! And what is a funnel cake? It’s a fried, sweet batter snack, tastes like doughnuts (at least to me!) and is made by pouring the batter into hot cooking oil in a circular pattern and deep frying the overlapping mass until golden-brown. They can be served with various toppings – powdered sugar, cinnamon, chocolate, ice-cream, whipped cream…
We have only ever tried funnel cake the once at Walt Disney World, in Epcot World Showcase in the American Adventure. It was pouring with rain, and this snack was on our “must eat in Orlando” list, so we bought a funnel cake to share, topped with ice-cream and chocolate sauce. And then sheltered from the rain to eat our sweet treat. The boy actually had a fried ice-cream instead!!
I’m not sure where else you can buy funnel cakes around the World – I’m sure there must be more than the one location in Epcot!
Have you ever eaten a funnel cake? What is your favourite topping?
Day 72 of #100DaysOfDisney is done – 28 to go!

I’d heard of them but was never sure what they were. I now HAVE to find or make some of these! They look to die for and I know they won’t help my weight loss but it would totally be worth it! xx

OMG How is this creation not already in my life? I’ve been to Disney in Florida twice and never seen or heard of these. That definitely warrants another trip back right? xxx
