DIY Haunted Mansion Inspired Garland

If you’ve been around here for a while then you know that the Haunted Mansion is one of my absolute favorite rides at Disney and many of last years spooky season tutorials were centered around this iconic ride. So naturally, most of my Halloween decorations center around this theme like my Haunted Mansion inspired candlestick, my Haunted Mansion wreath, and my “Welcome Foolish Mortals” sign. So of course I had to take it a step further and create this Haunted Mansion inspired garland, and I’m going to show you how to make it as well, so let’s get started!

I could sit for hours and watch the candy artists make these delicious treats and would gladly try one of everything they’ve got! Some of my personal favorites are their caramel apples, Mickey s’mores, and churro toffee.

But today I wanted to recreate some iconic Disney treats and one not so known treat.

These cute treats are marshmallows dipped in caramel and then coated in chocolate and sugar. But another treat you can find at the Candy Palace on Main Street are the Caramel Sticks. These are not always available and are only made on certain days but they’re definitely worth hunting for them.

One of my absolute favorite restaurants at Disneyland is Jolly Holiday. Their meals are delicious but even better than that are all the treats they have! They’ve got something for everyone from eclairs to cookies to muffins. But the best treat they have here is the Raspberry Rose Mickey Macaron!

Grey Stuff GΓ’teau Cupcakes


Thanks to Beauty and the Beast, The Grey Stuff has become one of the most well known Disney treats but for a long time, you could only find it at the Be Our Guest restaurant in Walt Disney World.

But in 2017, Disneyland opened the Red Rose Tavern in Fantasyland and with it came the west coasts own version of the grey stuff. And just like Lumiere says, it really is delicious!

Disneyland’s version has the shortbread cookie and the grey stuff just like Disney World but what makes it different is the red velvet cake and raspberry center. It is so good and has rightfully claimed a spot on my Disney Top 10 Treats list!

So loving this treat, I decided to put my own spin on it. These Grey Stuff GΓ’teau cupcakes are a red velvet cupcake with a raspberry filling and grey stuff frosting. So let’s get started making this delicious Disney treat in your own home!
