New Chocolate Covered Teddy Bear Treat Debut in EPCOT at the France Pavilion

A “Beary” Sweet Surprise: Testing Out EPCOT’s Newest Treat

There’s a new face in the France pavilion, and it’s almost too cute to eat! EPCOT has introduced a brand-new treat called L’Ourson—which is French for “teddy bear”—and it’s already turning heads at the ever-popular Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie.

But with the lines at Les Halles often stretching out the door, is this little marshmallow bear worth the wait? Here is the full breakdown.

The Details: Price and Ingredients

The L’Ourson is priced at $5.95, making it one of the more affordable treats in the bakery.

The snack itself is a dark chocolate-covered vanilla marshmallow bear served on a stick. While it might look like a simple kid’s snack at first glance, the quality of the ingredients tells a different story.

Traditionally, marshmallow treats at theme parks can be overly sugary or melt into a sticky mess the moment they hit the Florida sun. However, we were pleasantly surprised by how well this one held up.

• The Chocolate: The dark chocolate coating is creamy and rich. Most impressively, the shell actually stays attached to the marshmallow as you bite into it, rather than shattering or sliding off.
• The Marshmallow: This isn’t your average grocery store marshmallow. The vanilla flavor is distinct but not cloying, offering a sophisticated balance that feels like a “high-end” version of a childhood classic.
• The Texture: It’s firm enough to withstand the heat but soft enough to be delectable.

Because the bear is coated in dark chocolate, it has a slightly bitter, sophisticated edge. If you’re a fan of milk chocolate or prefer extreme sweetness, this might not be the treat for you. However, for those with a more refined palette who appreciate a balanced dessert, it’s a winner.

Pro Tip: Les Halles is famously crowded. If you’re just stopping in for the L’Ourson, try to visit during Early Entry (which now starts at 8:30 AM!) or later in the evening during the fireworks to avoid the heaviest midday rush.

Whether you’re a dark chocolate devotee or just looking for the most photogenic snack in World Showcase, this “high-end” marshmallow bear is a charming and delicious reason to make a stop in France.
