Love a sweet, pillowy beignet? You’re in the right place because right now there are so many different beignets at Disney World to try. Here are seven kinds of beignets across three locations so that you can plan your own beignet excursion on your next trip.

1. A Bounty of Beignets at Port Orleans French Quarter

Danielle, ready to taste test beignets for our dear readers.

The first leg of our beignet adventure started on a trip on the water, courtesy of the complimentary Sassagoula River Cruise leaving port at Disney Springs.

That’s right, at Disney World, you can get beignets with a side of bayou-adjacent sightseeing. Start at Disney Springs (if driving, park at the Lime Garage for the closest location) and head to the Marketplace dock to board your complimentary boat to Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter Resort.

After catching waterfront views of Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort and the adorable Treehouse Villas on the way, head to Scat Cat’s Club – Cafe, where guests can enjoy classic Mickey-shaped beignets, frosted beignets for kids, even beignets just for adults.

Classic Mickey-Shaped Beignets

Of course, Walt Disney World has Mickey-shaped beignets!

These iconic beignets are available in packs of three or six, and priced at $7.79 and $11.29 respectively at the time of publication. If you want to find yourself by a romantic atrium fountain snacking on a Mickey-shaped treat, these are your beignets. So picturesque. Especially the powdered sugar all over your hands and face.

Light, airy, and covered in alllll the powdered sugar (and then some) these beignets also come with one of three dipping sauces: strawberry, chocolate, or caramel.

Bonus: Guests can also get one of these classic beignets with their choice of ice cream and sauce for $9.29.

Specialty Beignets

A different look than your traditional powdered beignets, the Mickey-shaped Specialty Beignets are a larger and festively colorful confection available for $4.29 each at Scat Cat’s Club – Café.

Pipettes at the ready!

These next beignets were the most unique our group had ever seen. The Baton-Rouge Beignets ($12.49 at time of publication) come with an interactive pipette element for the filling which ensured the fluffy beignet dough remained fresh until the last bite.

When ready, you can squeeze the pipette and fill your beignet with your choice of Baileys Irish Cream, Kahlúa Coffee Liqueur, or RumChata Cream Liqueur.

2. Gluten-Friendly Beignets at Scat Cat’s Club – Café

Gluten-free beignets
The gluten-friendly beignets welcome everyone more guests to enjoy a fluffy treat.

Worth their own place on our list: the famously gluten-friendly beignets available at Scat Cat’s Club – Café. If you have a gluten sensitivity, or love someone who does, chances are you already know that Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter has long been home to these beignets of a more traditional pillow shape, hold the gluten (and for the same prices as the standard batches).

A bit thicker consistency than their Mickey-shaped counterparts, the gluten-friendly option offers a crisped outer layer and soft, chewy dough that makes these oh-so-fun to pull apart.

3. A Stuffed Beignet in the France Pavilion

Did you know that beignet translates loosely to “fritter” in English? 

Beignets were brought to New Orleans in the 1800s by the French Acadians, so next, our group toured World Showcase all the way to the France pavilion at EPCOT to experience a beignet from the homeland.

At Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie, there are so many beautiful treats on display, it can be hard to decide on just one – but here at Disney Parks Blog we make tough decisions for our readers and ordered the Beignet with chocolate and hazelnut filling ($5.95 at time of publication).

Hmmm … Suddenly you’ve got lots of decisions to make in the France Pavilion.

This round beignet may appear to be a humble treat next to the Créme Brûlée and Parfait aux Fruits – but the delicious beauty is on the inside.

4. Tiana’s Famous Beignets at Magic Kingdom Park

Tiana's Famous Beignets
The limited-time beignets just outside Tiana’s Bayou Adventure were the special spice of an idea that grew into this beautiful beignet roundup blog. Who better to get us thinking about an all-day beignet adventure than Tiana herself? 

Head to Magic Kingdom Park to taste these sweet additions to the Golden Oak Outpost menu, available for $6.99 until they dance away on Aug. 8.

A generous helping of powdered sugar every time.

One of the best parts of this stop is that we could watch cast members sprinkle the powdered sugar all over a fresh batch of beignets, then drizzle them with a golden stream of honey.
