Hi there Kimberly. I've traveled to Walt Disney World with dietary
restrictions in my family and have always been amazed by our overwhelming positive
experiences!
While there aren't many specific gluten-free menu items at this time, rest
assured that Disney works diligently to accommodate the special dietary
needs of their guests. For table-service meals, simply call (407) WDW-DINE or (407) 939-3463
and have the cast member note your granddaughter's gluten allergy on your dining
reservations. If
booking online, select "I have special requests or a food allergy" and then, Wheat (Gluten). Also, be sure to check out this
list of quick-service locations at the theme parks that, upon request, may accommodate guests' common food
allergy or intolerance requirements.
During your vacation, you may wish to check out
Babycakes in Downtown Disney
for
some delicious gluten-free dessert items, many of which now qualify as
snack items on the 2012 Disney Dining Plans! The Babycake Bakery
recently started offering special dietary cakes that serve 8-10 people
and can be ordered to coincide with your already
booked Advance Dining Reservation at a Walt Disney World restaurant.
Just call the bakery at 407-938-9044 with at least a week’s notice and
have your restaurant confirmation number, date, and reservation time
handy. What a wonderful surprise for your special princess to have a cake that the
entire family can enjoy together delivered to your table at the end of a meal!
May your Disney vacation be
practically perfect in every way! Feel free to send more questions my way in the days leading up to your trip!
