Other blog sites have made this information out to be confusing due to the array of menu items this year. Aside from the staple items at year-round locations such as a sweet beverage from Joffrey's Coffee & Tea Company, festival offerings like funnel cake, rainbow cake, popcorn bucket, puff pastry, and savory dishes are intricately placed throughout EPCOT.

The Wonderful Walk Experience
The creative mastermind that is Disney World doesn't stop at performances. There's culinary art to be explored, too! As believed, eating art is the way to the heart, and a way to receive a complimentary Artist Palette Cookie. To participate in The Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine, the first step is to purchase a Festival Passport from Guest Relations or a nearby merchandise location. You can then track your way around the world by collecting stamps from purchased menu items notated on the passport. Once you get to 5 dishes and 5 stamps, jump for joy, and dessert! You can then head over to Deco Delights Food Studio to enjoy that free cookie mentioned earlier.
