In an effort to take advantage of the fall season's most popular flavor in North America, Disneyland will now be offering pumpkin churros at the Disney California Adventure park in Anaheim.
The churros function as the perfect addition to the park's autumn and Halloween themes this season, offering an item that is both flavorful and Instagram-friendly, and that both children and adults can enjoy. The churros feature their standard shape, are flavored with pumpkin, and are dipped in both sugar and edible glitter for a unique, sparkling effect. The park also offers a 'Halloween' churro, which has a mystery flavor and features purple and black glitter and sugar crystals.
The Halloween and pumpkin churros can be found at Disneyland's Cozy Cone Motel.
