REVIEW: Here We Have an EPCOT Festival of the Arts Booth That’s Simple Perfection

Deco Delights at the 2026 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is serving Jazz Age glam you can eat.

It’s so pretty!

We’re live at the 2026 EPCOT Festival of the Arts, checking out the food studios, artistic performances, merchandise, and more. There’s a LOT going on, but don’t let it overwhelm you. We’re here to tell you everything you need to know before your visit. Let’s go to Deco Delights. Here’s everything you need to know about this festival booth!

Menu

Over at the  Deco Delights, the chefs have merged Art Deco style with food. Regarding food, Deco Delights has only one snack offering and some cocktails, but it is a showstopper. As for drinks, it offers a flight of new beers and one epic cocktail. This is also the spot you’ll need to visit if you plan on participating in the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine to get your completer prize.

Now that we’ve taken a look at the menu, let’s dive into the food itself!

Eats

We grabbed the Sparkling Spectacle Gâteau made with Vanilla bean mousse with a golden caramel center and apricot jam on a hazelnut cookie for $5.99. This treat is part of the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, so make sure you have your passport ready to get a stamp! This is one of those “pastry case magicians” where every layer has a job, and none of them are freeloading. But also, look at how this beautiful thing just SHIMMERS.

You bite in, and it starts very soft and fragrant: that vanilla bean mousse reads creamy, floral, and custardy, like melted vanilla ice cream crossed with crème anglaise. Then the golden caramel center shows up with warm toffee notes and a little browned sugar depth, so it goes from “sweet” to “rich” fast. It sort of reminds us of butterbeer when it mixes with the vanilla flavor of the mousse.

It’s a REAL treat

The apricot jam cuts through like a bright little sunbeam, bringing tangy stone-fruit pop and keeping the caramel from turning the whole thing into a sugar blanket. Under it all, the hazelnut cookie adds roasted, nutty crunch with a hint of praline, plus that slightly buttery, toasty finish. It’s almost like coffee in a dessert. This is the best way to end your eating journey at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts, y’all. It’s…well…perfect.

Drinks

In terms of drinks on this menu, we got the new Crooked Can Brewing Company Buttercream Fresco. You can also buy each one as an individual pour for $12.50.

Crooked Can Brewing Company Buttercream Fresco

Here’s the vibe you should expect from something called Buttercream Fresco:

It’s a dessert-leaning beer with a sweet, creamy vanilla-frosting note up front (think birthday-cake icing rather than straight sugar). “Fresco” suggests it won’t be only heavy frosting energy, so look for a brighter lift in the finish, like a light fruit zip or a clean, crisp edge that keeps it from drinking like a melted cupcake. The overall impression: creamy-sweet first sip, lighter “refresh” finish, with a smooth, rounded mouthfeel.

Who might love it:

  • If you like pastry stouts, cream ales, “dessert beers,” or anything that tastes like it should come with a tiny spoon… this is in your neighborhood. Also great for people who say, “I don’t really like beer,” but mysteriously appear the moment vanilla enters the chat.

Who might want to avoid it:

  • If you prefer dry, bitter, hop-forward beers (IPA people who want pine, grapefruit, and emotional damage), or you’re very sensitive to sweet/vanilla notes, this could read cloying. Same if you hate anything that feels “flavored” or “dessert-adjacent” and you want your beer to taste like… beer.

 You can also get the returning Boyd & Blair Espresso Martini for $12.50. This cocktail has become a staple at Deco Delights. It’s literally just espresso and vodka, so both flavors are VERY strong. A Boyd & Blair Espresso Martini is essentially a “coffee bar dessert” in cocktail form, but made to be easy. The first thing you notice is a bold, roasty espresso aroma and flavor, then it rounds out into dark chocolate and vanilla territory, like a mocha that grew up and started paying taxes. It’s smooth and velvety, with sweetness present (more “vanilla latte” than “black coffee”), and the coffee finish lingers pleasantly.

Also available to drink here is the Keel Farms Strawberry Shortcake Hard Cider for $12.50.

OVERALL

The word “delights” is in the name of this booth for a reason. The dessert here is a true delight, the perfect ending to all those savory dishes you’ve already tried at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts. However, there are some solid beer choices here, too, as well as an espresso martini for when you get that urge for a coffee-laced cocktail.

That’s it for this booth, but there’s a LOT more where that came from!
