What Waffle Batter Does Disney Use? 

For years, I have been curious about what Walt Disney World uses to give their mickey waffles their sweet distinct flavor. Did Tinkerbell sprinkle pixie dust on them? Did the Evil Queen cast a spell that went awry?

The mix is also available on Carbon’s Golden Malted’s website, found here.
