I have had the pleasure this past year of trying out one of Disneyland’s iconic treats – their funnel cake – and let me tell you, it was an experience straight out of a fairy tale for my taste buds! As a seasoned theme park enthusiast, I’ve sampled my fair share of park snacks, but Disneyland’s funnel cakes truly stand out as a delightful and indulgent must-try.
Disneyland’s chefs have truly mastered the art of crafting the perfect funnel cake. The batter is expertly prepared, resulting in a crispy, golden exterior that gives way to a light and fluffy interior. It’s a delicate balance that they’ve mastered to perfection.
While you can opt for the classic powdered sugar, which never fails to satisfy, the park offers another decadent option that elevates the funnel cake experience to new heights. The strawberries and whipped cream selection is a personal favorite, with the vibrant red berries adding a burst of freshness that perfectly complements the warm, sugary goodness of the cake.
One of the aspects that impressed me the most was the portion size. Disneyland doesn’t skimp on their funnel cakes. The generous servings are perfect for sharing (if you’re feeling particularly generous) or for savoring on your own as you take in the enchanting surroundings. It’s a treat that not only satisfies your sweet tooth but leaves you feeling like you’ve truly experienced a piece of the magic that sets Disneyland apart.
The presentation is also worth noting. The funnel cakes are served piping hot and beautifully arranged, making them not just a delicious snack but also a feast for the eyes. It’s these little touches that showcase Disneyland’s commitment to creating a memorable and immersive experience for their guests.
Disneyland’s funnel cakes are not just a snack – they’re a culinary journey into the heart of the Happiest Place on Earth. From the first crispy bite to the last lingering taste of sweetness, each moment spent savoring a funnel cake is a reminder of the joy and magic that Disneyland effortlessly weaves into every aspect of the park. Now, onto Knott’s Berry Farms’ funnel cakes…

The funnel cakes at Knott’s Berry Farm are a work of culinary art. The batter is a perfect balance of crispiness on the outside and a pillowy softness on the inside, creating a textural symphony with every bite.
What truly makes Knott’s Berry Farm funnel cakes unique is the use of their berries. The boysenberry-infused toppings are a stroke of genius, adding a unique and flavorful twist that pays tribute to the park’s roots. The boysenberry drizzle is a tangy, sweet revelation that elevates the entire experience. It’s not just a topping; it’s a celebration of Knott’s Berry Farm’s rich history and commitment to delivering distinctive flavors.
The variety of topping options is another highlight. While the classic powdered sugar remains a timeless choice, the park offers an array of tempting alternatives.

Now, you’re probably wondering, which do I prefer the most. Well, as much as I love both, I have to give it to Disneyland’s funnel cakes. While the variety of toppings are delicious at Knott’s, the funnel cakes got a bit soggy more quickly from my experience. But even though that’s the case, I’m still getting a funnel cake at either park I go to!
