    Banana DK Crush Float
    Lizzie Y.

    If you find yourself at Epic Universe's Super Nintendo World, please do yourself a favor & walk on over to Donkey Kong Country, to try the Bubbly Barrel! Their Donkey Kong Crush Float is the perfect dessert float to end the night after a long day at the park or even as a quick snack during the day. We ordered three of the signature crush floats, with the DK-themed barrel mugs! I would say, it's definitely not for everyone but I really enjoyed the banana pineapple ice cream. It comes with caramel popcorn and toffee pieces, for toppings... all in a waffle bowl. Note: there is pineapple soda underneath, I believe Fanta? But it's not very good, imo. It is ~$18-19 for the float with the souvenir barrel mug, & ~$10 w/o the mug. I think the mug is worth it, as it ended up being the most reasonably priced souvenir you can get at the parks haha.

    DK crush drink with souvenir DK barrel cup holder mug. (It's plastic and not insulated). For the money i wish they had filled it with MORE Dole Pineapple into the Fanta pineapple soda at the bottom. Probably would have been 10x more tasty if so. The pineapple soda at the bottom was not cold nor was it tasty haha. Worst part of the drink = the Fanta pineapple soda, the best part = the dole pineapple whip. The waffle cones are nice either way with the icecream. I think the cost was like $19 with DK cup. Cheaper without!.

    This is actually such an amazing dessert to get at the park! The banana pineapple soft serve is just like Dole Whip, but even more delicious! I loved the caramel popcorn toppings and star sprinkles! The aesthetics and presentation for this specialty beverage definitely paid attention to all of the details. I will say that the pineapple soda at the bottom did not have enough syrup in the machine when they dispensed it, so it basically tasted like soda water. But the souvenir mug is just so cool and the ice cream is awesome that I would definitely get it again and again! Hopefully, they get the soda right! The service was a quick, grab, and go situation, and there are some standing tables on the side of the hut to enjoy your tropical treat!

    DK float! Banana dole whip with crunchy toppings inside a waffle bowl on top of pineapple soda? It's a unique combo that kinda works! We ordered our drink here and got it immediately. Seating in the area is sparse so we ended up walking a bit and eating it on the go.

    We ended our Epic Universe night with this Epic dessert. The great presentation and the DK barrel mug to take home. The popcorn and little star sprinkles made this amazing dessert that you should get when you are here.

    DK Crush Float with Mug

    Ok if there is one thing in Epic that you are definitely going to it is the DK Crush Float with Mug. Well, you can get it without the mug, but why? I was at first throw off by banana with pineapple flavors and then it landed in my mouth and I went... mmmmm....lets try it again and still yummmm... then the caramel popcorn, crunches and mixes with the sprinkles and toffee, nothing beats this. Tropical Banana Flavor banana pineapple soft serve float with pineapple soda, waffle bowl, sprinkles, toffee pieces and caramel popcorn served in a souvenir DK mug. This is a float that will float you to the tropical isle's to look for DK & Thank Him !

    Time for a review update because I think I'm even more obsessed with Sampaguita now than I was when…read morethey first opened 3 years ago. This has become a regular weekend stop for me and my fam. Especially now that my son has discovered his love for ice cream as well. They're still serving up some of the best ice cream in Orlando with unique Filipino inspired flavors. Now, they also have specialty pastries and desserts. Most recently, we tried their ube cruffin and ube crookie and they were so good -- especially the cruffin. We also just tried their seasonal sweet corn specials this month and OMG... I'm still dreaming about sweet corn sundae. Layers of vanilla soft serve, Biscoff crumble, condensed milk, and toasted sweet corn, topped with honey toast and corn whipped cream. All the flavors mesh perfectly together. It's legit my new favorite dessert, and I wish it was not going away at the end of the month. But I'm sure I'll love their next seasonal special as well because they DO NOT MISS!

I absolutely love the set up the wallpaper. Everything was adorable. Of course I had to get the Ube soft serve, and my boyfriend got the Ube vanilla swirl Soft serve. It was so good. The texture the flavor I was obsessed and of course it's so picture perfect and my favorite color. I also got an Ube croissant pastry to bring home for my mom. I wish we had something like this near me and I will definitely be back when I'm in Orlando!

    I've gone here a total of two times now. The first time was when they first opened. It was so…read morecrowded and the prices were expensive for an ice cream crispy cone. This second time was a much better experience! Walking in, we were greeted by a worker there. There are tablets that take your order when you walk in. It's pretty self explanatory for ordering. I noticed the prices had gone down since the last time I went there and they were about $8 and some change per cone which I felt was fair. We waited a few minutes and our cones were ready. There were two tables inside but seating outside too, which we decided to hang. The cone is a donut like pastry that had Nutella on the inside. The cone was filled and then a lot more overflowing. Now the caramel was dripping down making such a mess but I didn't mind it, it added to the experience of such an elaborate desert. Make sure you have plenty of napkins on hand! I'm glad we sat outside because my cone was just dripping all over the place. I was trying to keep up with eating it so it wouldn't be so messy. I think it was a me problem because my friend that I was with wasn't nearly as messy as mine! There were trash cans outside so I can to go back inside to throw out the napkins and my cup. The lady who worked there thanked us again for coming in and said bye Overall a great experience. Again, I think it was a me problem with being so messy eating it so I won't take away a star for that!

It was a sweet treat and I'd probably go back to try another combination!

The matcha cream-filled waffle is always made fresh in-house for you. It is served warm and is just happiness in a little handheld pastry. Now, upon my most recent return, I learned they have a few rotational items on their menu as well as soft-serve ice cream options. While I did not get to try any of their newer items, I made a mental note to indulge in their pistachio soft-serve ice cream on my next visit. It truly made me happy to see how much bigger their menu has grown - which is always a GREAT sign. Since the shop itself is more of a order and go set-up, seating is located directly outside of the shop. Service has always been good for me, and the wait times are never more than 10-15 minutes pending the size of your order and how busy they happen to be. The staff is ALWAYS, and I mean, ALWAYS, so sweet. I have never had a bad experience here, and I am always very satisfied with my order(s). Pricing is good as well. Beyond that, it is in East End Market, so may the odds be ever in your favor when it comes to parking.

    I wish the ice cream was served on the warm waffle too! It would be amazing!…read moreGirls were super helpful and patient They pandan ice cream was delicious and refreshing I added Nutella ($1) and it was the perfect match for something sweeter I don't recommend the cotton candy topping, there is no taste
