EPCOT

Funnel Cake kiosks are typically found in the American Adventure Pavilion at EPCOT and other spots across Disney World.

Options for Guests with Food Allergies:
Funnel cakes are typically made from a batter containing wheat, milk, and eggs, which are common allergens. Unfortunately, this makes finding a funnel cake suitable for certain food allergies challenging. However, Disney World is known for its excellent accommodation of guests with dietary restrictions. Here are some tips:

1. Gluten-Free: Currently, there are no gluten-free funnel cakes available at the standard kiosks. However, guests can inquire at various dining locations about gluten-free dessert options.
2. Dairy-Free: Funnel cakes contain dairy in the batter and toppings. Guests can ask about dairy-free dessert options available at nearby eateries.
3. Egg-Free: Similar to dairy-free options, guests with egg allergies should inquire about alternative desserts at nearby locations.
4. Nut Allergies: While funnel cakes themselves typically do not contain nuts, cross-contamination is possible. Always inform the staff about nut allergies to ensure safety.

Tips for Guests with Food Allergies:

• Speak to a Cast Member: Always inform a cast member about your allergies. They can guide you to the best options available and may offer alternatives.
• Visit Special Dietary Request Locations: Some restaurants and kiosks have more experience handling food allergies and can provide safer alternatives.
• Check Mobile App: The My Disney Experience app often lists allergen-friendly options at various locations.

Overall Experience:
Funnel cakes at Disney World are a delightful treat, offering a nostalgic taste with various fun toppings. While those with food allergies might face limitations, Disney’s commitment to guest satisfaction means there are still plenty of delicious alternatives to explore.
