Ciao to the Cannoli Cupcake at Epcot’s Italy Gelato Kiosk. This sweet treat offers a multitude of flavors in a cup. If you are looking for something new and fun to try while strolling around the World Showcase at Epcot, the Cannoli Cupcake is a great choice.
Let’s start from the top. The Cannoli Cupcake consists of 4 layers. The very top is a mini cannoli filled with sweet ricotta and chocolate chips, drizzled with chocolate and sprinkled with powdered sugar. Beneath the mini cannoli is the swirled ricotta icing topped with candied cherries and pineapples, then drizzled with chocolate. The icing tops the vanilla bean cupcake. I must note here that I am not typcially a fan of cupcakes. However, this cupcake was not too sweet and the cupcake itself was rather dense as opposed to your typical crumbly cupcake. I found it to be a bit dry until I realized that underneath the cupcake, the bottom layer was a sweet ricotta with chocolate chips. When I combined the dryness of the cupcake, with the ricotta and chocolate chips, it was quite pleasing to the palette.
The Cannoli Cupcake can be found at the Gelato Kiosk, on the right, as you are walking past the Italy Pavillion towards Germany. This non-descript location blends into the background and you can easily walk right by without realizing you have passed it. While the Tiramisu and the Cannoli do count as a snack credit on the Disney Dining Plan, the Cannoli Cupcake, unfortunately, does not. If you are not on the Dining Plan, or are just looking for a more substantial snack, then the Cannoli Cupcake will certainly satisfy. The Cannoli Cupcake comes in a clear cup, thus making it easy to continue on your way around the World Showcase while enjoying your sweet treat. Just remember to grab a spoon.
