Several of Disney Springs newest spots are also getting into the spirit of the Season:
… In Town Center at Amorette’s Patisserie, a beautiful dome cake would make a stunning centerpiece for your holiday table, or a thoughtful host/hostess gift. Or maybe pick up a box of macarons as a perfect stocking stuffer. There are even special offerings, just for the holidays:
“Snowball,” a red velvet cake with cream cheese brûlée, a chocolate center and white chocolate
Bouche de Noel, a dark chocolate mousse with a black forest cake featuring flourless chocolate cake, cherry mousse, and Chantilly
Wintertime Petite Cake, with layers of holiday spice chiffon cake, marzipan, apricot pâté de fruit, amaretto mousse

At The Ganachery, Milk Chocolate and Almond Holiday Trees and classic German Stollen bread enrobed in chocolate are delicious holiday treats. Hot cocoa spoons make great gifts for teachers, your postal worker or anyone else on your list; simply stir the rich ganache into 6 ounces of warm milk to create a creamy hot chocolate. Or put together a box of ganache squares tailored to your recipient—be sure to include the two new holiday flavors – Pear Ginger and Amoretto! …
… the seasonal Peppermint Milkshake at D-Luxe Burger. Over in the Marketplace, be sure to check out the Gingerbread Cheesecake Crêpe at AristoCrêpes .
