Over in Epic Universe’s Celestial Park, Santa has clearly sprinkled some extra stardust, because Celestial Snacks is serving a Holiday Churro that is pure gingerbread joy. It comes topped with peppermint marshmallow fluff, holiday sprinkles, and a white chocolate Santa that is almost too cute to eat. Almost. If you want an ice-cold partner to your warm churro, hop over to Frosty Moon for the holiday-exclusive Chocolate Peppermint Soft Serve, which makes the perfect churro chaser.

Universal Studios Florida is cranking the festive vibes to eleven with the Snickerdoodle Crêpe from Central Park Crêpes. This bundle of holiday happiness layers cinnamon mascarpone, snickerdoodle crumbles, whipped cream, and glittery sugar dust for a treat that tastes like Christmas morning. TODAY Cafe is also decorating dessert trays with The Elegant Ornament, a glossy chocolate crème brûlée sphere filled with a white chocolate peppermint center.
