Sink Your Teeth Into These Gourmet Candy Apples at Universal Orlando Resort
One of my favorite fruits to snack on is a crisp apple. So naturally, candy apples rank pretty high on my all-time favorite sweet treats list.
I set out one beautiful, fall day to hunt down the best gourmet candy apples throughout Universal Orlando Resort. Here are my top picks and where to find them:
Hello Kitty and Friends
These guys are almost too cute to eat! There are seven different apples you can choose from, including Keroppi and Chococat. The other five differ from chocolate coating, sprinkles, chocolate chips or cookie crumbles. But they all sport the iconic Hello Kitty bow.
You can find these apples in the Hello Kitty Shop located outside the streets of Hollywood Boulevard in Universal Studios Florida.
Despicable Me Minion
I went bananas for this Minion apple when I saw him. He’s our featured character apple with a delicious chocolate coating. You can find this little guy in either the Universal Studios Store or in the San Francisco Candy Shop in Universal Studios.
Flavors Galore
From unique flavors like Apple Pie to the classics, you can find a variety of flavors that every member of the family will enjoy. Featured above from left to right are the Rocky Road, Apple Pie and Heath apples. I have a deep love for all things marshmallow and chocolate, so the Rocky Road was the perfect one for me.
Like your apple covered with different toppings? Then you got to try one of below. From left to right you have Cookies and Cream, Milk Chocolate with M&M’s and the classic Caramel with Peanuts.
You can find all these different flavors and more at the sweet shops in both Universal’s Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios.
The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen
Yes, these do exist and aren’t a figment of your imagination. The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium in Universal CityWalk has created the most decadent gourmet apples – perfect for the chocolate lover at heart. You’ve got four to choose from, or if you’re like me, you can indulge in all of them.
Here’s the breakdown for each one (from left to right):
- The Ultimate Sundae: Chocolate on chocolate on chocolate topped with cherries
- The Cookies R’ Us: Taking cookies and cream to the next level
- Ooey Gooey Apple: A cookies and peanut butter party for your mouth
- The Decadent Apple: Keep it classy with a beautiful mix of chocolate and caramel
