You get delicious chaos. After the success of last year’s Savory 16, we’re doing it again. But this time we’re diving into the sweetest side of EPCOT’s most beautiful festival. From nostalgic cereal milk shakes to fruit sushi, funnel cakes, frozen cobblers, and unexpected surprises, 16 desserts go head-to-head across World Showcase to determine one champion. I am joined by two fellow foodies (who joined me for our Savory 16 tournament last year) , as we walk the promenade, taste every contender, debate favorites, and crown the Best Sweet Treat of the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival . Along the way we talk festival strategy, surprising standouts, value picks, and the dishes you absolutely should not miss. If you love EPCOT festivals, Disney food, or just playing along with your own bracket in the parks, this one is for you.
