So much so that they are already offering special Halloween-themed sweet treats throughout the park.\u00a0On my recent visit, I stopped inside the Main Street Bakery (that would be where Starbucks is, for those who don&#8217;t know) to pick up one of the great choices.\u00a0The Amuck Cupcake, which is themed around the classic Hocus Pocus film can be found here.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-73912\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_4988-e1568305566365.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_4988-e1568305566365.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_4988-e1568305566365-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Just what is the Amuck Cupcake? It&#8217;s a Trick or Treat Candy Cupcake with Peanut Butter Chips, Chocolate Candy Bits, and Toffee filled with Caramel Sauce, iced with Chocolate Buttercream, and topped with a Cake Cauldron and Sanderson Sisters Chocolate Decoration. At $7.99&#8230;..this is one pricey cupcake&#8230;.but let me tell you&#8230;.this sucker is HUGE!!!! (PS: For those on the Disney Dining Plan, this is a snack option&#8230;.and a good use of one too!)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-73580\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_5009-e1567105288728.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_5009-e1567105288728.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_5009-e1567105288728-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-73910\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_5009-e1568305511993.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_5009-e1568305511993.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/IMG_5009-e1568305511993-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Taking this pic wasn&#8217;t easy! The cupcake was seriously the size of my hand.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>They handed me the cupcake in a bowl&#8230;.that&#8217;s how big it was. And it was hefty. There was weight to this cupcake. My problem&#8230;.I wasn&#8217;t going to be eating the cupcake here. I wanted to take it back with me&#8230;and due to the immense size&#8230;.well&#8230;.they don&#8217;t have containers big enough to hold it! That is going to make this more difficult. (Carrying a cupcake on the monorail was definitely not easy.)<\/p>\n<p>So, once I got to a place where I could enjoy the cupcake, I dug in and if you get this cupcake, I hope you like icing! The top half is almost completely icing. I thought the cauldron would be cake, but I didn&#8217;t see or taste cake at all&#8230;.it just looked and tasted like a mound of delicious frosting. Do not get this cupcake if you don&#8217;t like buttercream icing. The Sanderson Sisters decoration was a good solid piece of white chocolate.<\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s move onto the cake. It was a vanilla cake with delicious pieces of chocolate candies, peanut butter chips, and toffee&#8230;.but the best part was the LAYER OF CARAMEL on the bottom! Most of the time, Guests will want to take the wrapper off their cupcakes before eating them&#8230;.but you don&#8217;t want to do that with this one. This most certainly is a fork-eating cupcake! (Matter of fact, I would call this more of a &#8220;personal cake&#8221; that&#8217;s designed to look like a cupcake than a cupcake.) The flavors here were so yummy, but it&#8217;s certainly a lot of sweet! If you are so inclined, I might share it. (Might.)<\/p>\n<p><em>Have you tried the Amuck Cupcake yet?
