The more creative it is, the better. So when I heard that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/walt-disney-world\/dining\/menus\/backlot-express-menu\/\">Backlot Express<\/a> was serving up a special cake in the form of a paint can, I knew I had to see what this way all about.<\/p>\n<p>Lately Disney has been knocking it out of the park with these cute dessert options. And they&#8217;ve really been hitting it heavy with specialty mini cakes, which are frequently found at Amorette&#8217;s Patisserie at Disney Springs.<\/p>\n<p>This dessert, however, is only available at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/walt-disney-world\/parks\/disneys-hollywood-studios\/\">Disney&#8217;s Hollywood Studios<\/a> at this specific quick service location and it fits the theme perfectly. Since Backlot Express is themed after the backstage area\/workshop of a movie set, a paint can dessert is 100% on point. Guests who wish to pick up this treat right now will have to mobile order it, which is exactly what we did. Learn more about how mobile order works <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/walt-disney-world\/dining\/mobile-ordering\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Since I was able to mobile order this treat, I decided to split my time&#8230;.I had my husband wait in line for Baseline Tap House while I went and picked up this dessert. We decided we&#8217;d have our lunch at Baseline and this Paint Can Cake would be the dessert!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-81107\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/1-500x375.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>So, once we were responsible adults and ate our lunch (I mean, we weren&#8217;t that responsible, as our lunch consisted of a charcuterie board and a giant pretzel and beer cheese), we dove into the paint can cake.<\/p>\n<p>This is actually a pretty good size mini cake for the money. I would definitely suggest splitting this among your party. We were a party of 3 and it was just the right amount of dessert for all of us at the time.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-81108\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-e1624047374416.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-e1624047374416.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2-e1624047374416-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As you can see, the cake itself is a double layer rainbow confetti vanilla. It features a vanilla buttercream icing. Now, the most interesting was the Mango-Chocolate drip. Then there is a White Chocolate Paintbrush on top. As I mentioned, the mango-chocolate drip, which resembles &#8220;paint splatter&#8221; is a really cute touch&#8230;.not my favorite flavor, but it&#8217;s really cute.<\/p>\n<p>The cake overall actually isn&#8217;t overly sweet. I have a pretty good sweet tooth and this wasn&#8217;t even close to one of the richest things I&#8217;ve eaten. It was a great way to end the meal though.<\/p>\n<p>So, my big takeaways&#8230;.it&#8217;s really cute&#8230;.it&#8217;s not overly sweet&#8230;.it&#8217;s not that expensive&#8230;.and I would totally suggest sharing it.<\/p>\n<p><em>Have you tried the paint can cake yet?
