Disneyland does Halloween right, especially in the treats department. This year, there's an exciting mix of new creations (hi, Coco-themed dessert!) and returning favorites that you won't want to miss. While the Halloween food at Disney World includes an awesome poison-apple cupcake and candy-corn milkshake, the Anaheim parks' creative offerings are just as noteworthy.
Between the food and the new Disneyland Halloween merchandise, you've got a lot of things to add to your must-see (and must-eat) list. Take a look ahead to see some of what's available at Disneyland and California Adventure starting this Halloween season, then check out even more on Disney's blog.

Halloween high tea is not new to Disneyland, but this year's villain theme is. At Steakhouse 55, guests can enjoy a whimsical take on a popular activity for tea-lovers. The creators of the menu put a lot of thought into each item, and it's a seriously fun experience.
If you want to add this to your schedule, plan ahead! The Halloween high-tea service is only available from noon until 3 p.m., Friday through Sunday, beginning Sept. 7.
Each snack on each tier is themed after a Disney villain. Say hello to Oogie Boogie and Queen of Hearts chocolate-covered strawberries.
Deciphering the villain-inspired food is especially fun. The roasted red pepper hummus sandwich with serrano ham? That's Scar from The Lion King, naturally. And the mini prime rib sandwich on toasted sourdough with cream of horseradish and Peppadew peppers is . . . good ol' Gaston.
There's obviously a Maleficent-inspired snack on the villain-centric menu. It's the green one with "horns": toasted pumpernickel bread with an edamame-avocado smash, sweet chili, bacon, and fried ruby red, a type of microgreen.
Perhaps the coolest one of all is the Ursula-themed deviled egg. The egg gets its color from squid ink (!) and blueberry purée, and it's filled with beet purée mixed with the yolk. Topping it off is tobiko caviar and dried seaweed.
To round it all out with something sweet, the tea service offers a plate of maple-pecan and chocolate scones.
