Celebrating National Caramel Day at The Walt Disney World Resort Just Got A lot Sweeter
In honor of National Caramel Day, what better way to celebrate than to head over to Germany in the World Showcase at EPCOT.
If you haven’t stopped by yet, you should definitely visit Karamell-Küche in EPCOT. Presented by Werther’s Original, this shop in the Germany pavilion is a fan-favorite destination that features buttery, hand-crafted caramel treats. While many are familiar with its delicacies such as the Werther’s Salted Pretzel Chocolate Chip Cookie and Werther’s Caramel S’mores, you may be surprised to know that when you stop at this location, you’re stepping into the only Werther’s store in the world! And when you take a bite of the sweet treats, you’re also biting into some (delicious!) history: the first caramel “butter candy” was invented in Werther, Germany in 1909. Since then, Werther’s has become a cherished caramel brand sold in more than 100 countries.
Aside from the delicious caramel popcorn, there are many other treats to try in the store, such as caramel apples to caramel squares covered with milk or dark chocolate. And also caramel cookies, marshmallows and flights!
In honor of National Caramel Day, Werther’s Original caramel is now being used in select treats at confectioneries across Walt Disney World Resort, including Big Top Treats at Magic Kingdom Park, Zuri’s Sweets Shop at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park, Candy Cauldron and Goofy’s Candy Company at Disney Springs, Bayview Gifts at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, and Screen Door General Store at Disney’s BoardWalk Resort. Here you can find items such as Werther’s Original Caramel Butter Bar (three cheers for shortbread and caramel!), Werther’s Original Caramel Pecan Cluster, and a variety of caramel apples – like peanut, milk chocolate, and one in honor of the Walt Disney World Resort 50th anniversary celebration.
But that’s not all! Guests can now find the beloved Werther’s Original Hand-Crafted Caramel Popcorn (previously only available at the Karamell-Küche) at Big Top Treats at Magic Kingdom Park. How sweet it is!
