This week my 16-year-old son was disappointed not to find Disney Mickey Mouse ice cream sandwiches in our freezer. We can’t go to a Disney Park every day, but we can bring Disney home.
Our freezer before…
According to a Delish article, the icon Disney Mickey Mouse ice cream sandwich was first introduced to park guests in 1991. Then almost 30 years later in 2020, this ice cream treat made its way into the freezer section of our neighborhood stores.
Even though Nestle makes both ice cream sandwiches, to compare the two would be unfair. They are not exactly the same in flavor, size or price.
The current park sandwiches:
· Size – 5 ounces
· Cost – $6.25 (includes tax but not park admission)
The store-bought sandwiches:
· Size – 3.5 ounces
· Cost – $1.25 (approximately)
The biggest difference is atmosphere – my son enjoying one while playing on his phone is our kitchen is very different than sitting on a bench at Disneyland Carsland in the California sun (playing on his phone). One is far more superior.
With that said, our family loves the store-bought Disney Mickey Mouse ice cream sandwiches. The smooth, flavorful cookies and cream ice cream is sandwiched between a firm chocolate cookie. Perfect on a summer day or truly any day.
Personally, I find these Disney Mickey Mouse ice cream sandwiches most regularly at Target. This month (June 2022) I purchased a box for $7.39. For those that have a Target Red Card, you can save 5% for a box price of $7.02

Our family loves having these Disney Mickey Mouse ice cream sandwiches in our freezer. It make us reminisce of our Disney days and brings Disney home.
