Favorite Caramel Treats at Walt Disney World Resort

I have something to admit: I think I might love caramel more than I love chocolate. There's something about that ooey gooey sweet goodness that comes from a caramel treat and I just can't get enough. Of course, if that caramel treat is coated in chocolate it's even better.

Making The Most Of A Disney Trip When Your Plans Suddenly Change

In all of my years as a Disney fan participating in the community, I've come to realize that in a way Disney has trained its regular guests to be 'Type A' travelers.
