Candy Cauldron closed for its refurbishment in August 2024.

Inside a theme park bakery with medieval decor, four staff members work behind a counter. Shelves with goods are in the background, and a woman waits in line in the foreground.

While we didn’t notice much change inside, we did see that the cash wraps have been updated.

A restaurant counter with a heart and sword mural, cash registers, and napkin dispensers. Red and yellow checkered floor tiles in front. Employees stand behind the counter.

The front of the cash wraps are now mostly brown instead of fully emulating the Evil Queen’s heart box from “Snow White.” The heart and dagger are still present but are now flanked on the left and right with brown wood and gold accents with three-pointed crowns.

A person wearing a mask and chef's jacket stands in front of a wall painted to resemble a medieval dungeon or kitchen with archways, shelves, and a cauldron.

The mural along the back wall appears the same as before, depicting the Evil Queen’s secret lair.

A group of people stand in line inside a store with a decorated ceiling and colorful flooring. A person is on top of a display on the left side of the image.

Guests queue around the center of the store. Temporary stanchions have been set up to keep lines organized.
