From a presentation standpoint, this Peppermint Éclair looks fun.

It has a light blue and white mousse topping with chocolate snowflake pieces on top. To us, it looks more like a “Frozen”-themed treat. When you cut into it, there’s a bright blue peppermint filling inside.

Our Éclair was light, moist, and fresh. We are sorry to say, however, that even if you are a peppermint lover, the taste here is more akin to mint-flavored toothpaste. The flavor is extremely strong.

This was our least favorite of all the daytime treats we tried today at Magic Kingdom. But if you’re a fan of an overwhelming mint flavor, you might enjoy it.
