Review: The Spider-Topped Whoopie Pie in Disney World is Scary…But Not In the Way You Might Think!

We’re back on the Halloween Treat Trail with another seasonal snack from Disney World! 

Halloween Treats at Saratoga Springs Resort

After tasting (and falling in love with) the Pumpkin Whoopie Pie available at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts, we wondered what other delectable Whoopie Pies we could fill our bellies with. Our search has brought us to Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort! But does this pie measure up?

We set course for The Artist’s Palette, which is Saratoga Springs’ go-to counter service dining location when you’re in need of a quick bite to eat!

Artist’s Palette

There, we found none other than the Pumpkin Spiced Whoopie Pie!

This dessert is a chocolate whoopie pie filled with pumpkin-spiced marshmallow, and decorated with a Chocolate Spider complete with an icing web. EEK!!

EEK!

It certainly SOUNDS delicious, and it looks scary cute, but does it match the divine experience that was the Pumpkin Whoopie Pie from the Yacht and Beach Club? It’s a battle of the Whoopie Pies, y’all… and we have a winner! Unfortunately, though…

It’s not this one. 

While the Pumpkin Spiced Whoopie Pie here at The Artist’s Palette certainly is a treat to look at, the cake portion was dry, and — perhaps more surprisingly — it lacked flavor. And then there’s the matter of the pumpkin marshmallow filling

The filling had a rather odd texture — almost as though there was a gelatin mixed in with the marshmallow. Like, it actually jiggles. The pumpkin-spiced flavor was nicely present, but that was… well, pretty much the only highlight (aside from that cute spider and web topping, of course).

But don’t you fret… we tried a couple more treats at Saratoga Springs Resort today, and one of them is as tasty as it is Instagram-worthy (AND that one’s available at Old Key West Resort, too). We’ll have our review for you right here soon!

While we’d recommend passing on the Pumpkin Spiced Whoopie Pie in favor of the other treats we tried here today, if you’re looking to work your way through ALL of Disney World’s spooky treats this Halloween season, you can gallop on over to The Artist’s Palette and try a Pumpkin Spiced Whoopie Pie for yourself for $4.99!
