Do Mickey Waffles have Dairy?
Disney World offers plant based Mickey Waffles at most locations, and these are Dairy Free Mickey Waffles! If you don’t ask, it’s likely that dairy is being used in the regular mix or ingredients needed to make the mix.
Are Mickey Waffles Peanut Free?
None of the current Disney Waffle Mixes contain Peanut (making them free from peanut). There may be issues with cross contact depending on the location and how the waffle mix was made, so you will need to check with a Chef, Coordinator or Manager to confirm.

Do you have to request Allergy Waffle Mix ahead of time?
This is a question that is common on forums and other groups… because in many locations you have to request modifications early.
But at Disney World, if they have the mix, if does not need to be requested ahead of time. 90% of the locations at Disney World (that are owned by Disney) have the gluten free mix in the kitchen. There are other locations that are not owned by Disney World (the third party operating vendors) and those locations may or may not have the Gluten Free Waffle Mix.
What Brands are used for the Allergy Friendly Mickey Waffles at Disney World?
There’s a few brands on property that we’re seeing right now.
Disney uses a variety of mixes, and it’s important to note that you won’t find the same mix at all locations. If you need a specific mix, you will need to ask if they have it. I’d love to give you a list of all the places that have each mix, but this changes weekly based on supply and the lotto system Disney has in place for food service items.

The first brand that’s becoming more common is Bloomfield Farms Brand. This is a mix that was created by Disney Chefs for mass production… but they are no longer carrying this product.
It is produced by a Third-Party Company (Bloomfield Farms owned by Blend Pak). This Mix contains: Rice Flour, Sorghum Flour, Sugar, Tapioca Starch, Baking Powder (Sodium Acid pyrophosphate, sodium bicarbonate, corn starch, monocalcium phosphate), xanthan gum, baking soda, kosher salt.

Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free
The next mix they use that’s common at the resorts especially, is the Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pancake Mix. Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pancake Mix. This is made in a Gluten Free Facility. The ingredients for the Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pancake Mix are: Gluten Free Flour Blend (Sweet White Rice Flour, Whole Grain Brown Rice Flour, Potato Starch, Whole Grain Sorghum Flour, Tapioca Flour, Xanthan Gum) Sugar, Baking Powder (MonoCalcium Phosphate, Cornstarch,Sodium Bicarbonate) Sea Salt.
Namaste Mix
I am no longer seeing Namaste Mix at Disney World (it wasn’t a favorite as the chef’s really struggled with it). Namaste was very popular 2019 and before. This means that it will be hard to find a true all forms corn free option for Mickey Waffles.
It may be possible to contact Disney Special Diets to see if Namaste Mix is used anywhere on property for those folks that need this blend.
Let’s talk about where you can find these Allergy Friendly Mickey Waffles
Below you’ll find a combination of Quick Serve (like fast food), Table Service (sit down) and Character Meals.
Friendly reminder, you do not need to be staying on property or have a park ticket to visit the resort locations (but you will need a reservation for many of them if you are driving)
I’d suggest getting a reservation for one of the Table Service Locations, or heading to a nearby Resort when you are at the parks for the day. Not familiar with the concept? Here’s a post with info about how to go to Disney Dining outside of the parks (including without a ticket!)
