The Best of Disney Springs: The Goofy Company

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at FIU chapter.

Walt Disney World is the perfect place to make memories and eat delicious food. If you have a sweet tooth and love tasting new candy flavors, you should stop by The Goofy Company, located at the outdoor shopping, dining, and entertainment complex of beautiful Disney Springs. You can smell the delicious sugary scent from a mile away, and when you enter the store, you will be impressed by the amount of sweets, chocolates, and candies they have to choose from.

It’s Candy Time!

If you love candy, this store was made for you! The Goofy Company have all types of candies, from Mike & Ikes, jelly beans, and sour gummy bears all the way to M&Ms and licorice.  Plus, they have an entire section of lollipops, ranging from small lollipops all the way to huge ones. Their lollipops also come in different shapes and styles based on the colors of a Disney character.  

They also have an impressive Jelly Belly wall. They have jelly beans in all the colors that you could ever image! Here, you are able to make your own bagged combination of jelly beans to take home. How fun!

Create your own treat!

In the middle of the store, you can create your own treat at the mini treat-making factory. You choose your treat, such as Caramel Apple, Marshmallow, Gingerbread Mickey Cookie, and Mickey Crisped Rice Cereal Treats. Then, you can cover your treat in sprinkles, mini-M&Ms, peanut butter chips, chopped peanuts, sliced almonds, cinnamon and sugar, dark and white chocolate chips, crushed Oreo cookie crumbs, crushed Butterfingers, coconut, and Graham cracker crumbs. 

On the 4th of July weekend, they had rice crispy treats in the shape of Mickey ears with red, white and blue sugar crystals. Also, since Toy Story 4 is almost coming out, they also had Toy Story inspired cupcakes, such as Wood and Buzz Lightyear cupcakes.

Goofy’s Glacier

Aside from candies and pastries, the Goofy’s Company also have sweet slushes, which they call Goofy’s Glacier. The different flavors they have are Coca Cola Cooler, Orange You Happy Orange, Goofy Glacier Apple, Brrrrr-Banana, Gwarshly Berry Blue, Hi-C Lime, Pucker Purple, Powerade Mountain Blast, and Powerade Fruit Punch.  You are also given the option of mixing and matching flavors to create your own personalized Goofy Glacier. The Goofy’s Glaciers are a big hit during the summer time to help the shopper’s refresh and cool down on hot days.

Packaged goods to take home!

The Goofy’s Company sells all kinds of cookies, cakes, cupcakes, cotton candy, popcorns, and pretzels that are freshly baked in the store or that are pre-bagged. They have diary-free, vegan, and even Kosher options throughout the entire store. 

I was impressed by their unique flavors of popcorn. They have Blueberry Almond popcorn, Churro popcorn, Sriracha Kettle popcorn, Parmesan Garlic popcorn, and Truffle popcorn

They have also recently introduced a new range of Gourmet Cotton Candy flavors, such as Key Lime, Root Beer, and the Sour Apple Cotton Candies. The Goofy’s Company frequently comes up with new flavors, and each order of cotton candy is made by hand.
