If you are looking to end your day with a sweet treat at the Walt Disney World Resort, look no further than the dessert parties. Each of the four theme parks offers a variety of dessert parties that each include exclusive viewings of their park’s nighttime shows and spectaculars. While some of the parties are regular, year-round parties, others are special, seasonal parties. Let’s take a look at each of them!
