Disneyland Resort has cut one of its most popular Easter offerings for 2025, reportedly citing “budget cuts.”
Easter isn’t as big a celebration at the Disney parks as Christmas, but it’s still a popular time for visitors. Locals and out-of-state guests flock to Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park as public schools and many employers give families time off. Guests celebrating the Christian holiday can participate in Easter egg hunts, try limited-time food offerings, and even meet the Easter Bunny on Disneyland Park’s Main Street, U.S.A.
Unfortunately, one popular Easter offering isn’t returning to Disneyland Resort this year: the chocolate Easter eggs at Candy Palace. Over the past few years, the treats have become increasingly popular, with guests lining up each morning to try one. Each egg was filled with flavored fudge, including peanut butter and chocolate cream fudge. Check out this picture from @guyselga on X (formerly Twitter):
If you’ve never had a Disneyland Easter egg you need to try one. It’s an intense dessert experience. Like you got socked by a fudge fist

Candy Palace made each Easter egg in-house, so quantities were limited. They were only available on select days and for a short window before Easter. But even Disney Park guests who couldn’t try a chocolate Easter egg could watch from a window as Disney cast members hand-crafted them inside the Main Street, U.S.A., store.
Disney Parks Blog released the Easter Foodie Guide for Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort last week, and the iconic chocolate fudge eggs were notably absent. Returning Disneyland Resort offerings include the Bunny Cereal Treat, festive caramel apples, and Easter cake pops.
Disneyland Resort didn’t publicize the reason behind the removal of the chocolate Easter eggs. However, WDWNT reported that the Southern California Disney Park pulled the offering due to “budget cuts.” Disney cast members hand-crafted the fudge eggs, so it’s possible that Disney didn’t want to pay them for a time-intensive process with lower returns than the sale of mass-produced treats.
Disney hasn’t confirmed this report but has cut multiple offerings in recent months. Last year, several entertainment options disappeared from Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park.
