Happily Ever After Dessert Party – January 5, 2018

Luke and I love HEA, and we had never done a dessert party at Magic Kingdom so we worked this into our schedule. We showed up at Tomorrowland Terrace, where we checked in at 7:49pm. They verified we were on the list, and sent us up the ramp to begin enjoying the snacks. It was not sold out on this night, so it was easy to find a table.

I took pictures of the entire dessert buffet spread – enjoy! 

We were both excited to see POG juice as an option. Not pictured were the bottles of water you could also grab. 

Luke ended up getting a tea (it was another chilly night and he wanted something to warm up with), a glass of POG juice and a bottle of water. I went for a bottle of water and a glass of POG juice. Here’s pictures of our first plates – 

It was Frederick the AT-AT’s first dessert party! He was eying up our food – but once again, he’s an inanimate object so he doesn’t eat…

I have this picture of another plate – I think we shared? Typically at a buffet like this, Luke will finish before me and then ask if I want anything picked up when he goes back up, then I’ll ask him the same when I go back for my second pass. We definitely both went back a few times haha.

The cheesecake brownie bites were my favourite thing, I really enjoyed those a lot. It was also nice to have some fruit!

A bunch of people had rushed out the viewing area as soon as they were able to so they could get the front of the viewing area. This wasn’t our first time seeing HEA (this week), so we weren’t in a hurry. We filled our bellies until we felt like we had got our money’s worth, then made our way over to the viewing area. 

We ended up standing at the very back of the fenced off viewing area, but there was about 10 feet in front of us without people. It was actually fantastic, we didn’t feel we were looking over anyone’s head, we had room to breathe without being crammed in like sardines and there was a fence directly behind us to lean against. It was a really great place to watch the show! 

Overall, we really enjoyed this dessert party, and it was a wonderful way to end a day that had started so terrible. *Spoiler alert* – I ended up back at this dessert party the next week unplanned. Luke and I haven’t been back together on any subsequent trips, but I’m sure we will do a Magic Kingdom dessert party again one day!
