BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 The Disney Food Blog has posted a review of Writer's Stop at Disney's Hollywood Studios... the original home of THE carrot cake cookie! :)http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2013/09/02/review-writers-stop-at-disneys-hollywood-studios/ Excerpts...Writer's Stop -- Outside Be sure to take a slow look around Writer’s Stop. First off, they really do sell books! So be sure to peruse the selection in case there’s a volume you’ve been meaning to pick up. The shop also occasionally hosts book signings. Above, you can just glimpse the corner of a poster announcing the appearance of Ridley Pearson, who pens the Kingdom Keepers series.I love the collection of art glass and the old Carthay Theater print, too.Book Display Coffee Drinks Menu -- Click to Enlarge But Writer’s Stop has one major claim to my confection affection, and that’s the Carrot Cake Cookie. This addition to the park’s snack list made it an instant favorite several years ago, and now it’s a cult must- have!Carrot Cake Cookie -- On Display Carrot Cake Cookie -- Cross Section Peanut Butter Cookie -- On Display Peanut Butter Cookie -- Up Close Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LONE-STAR 370 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Have one on every trip Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 At least one. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 The PB cookie looks gross. Whatever is melted/smashed on it is not appealing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 So I read the review to try and figure out the mystery topping. The person thinks it was butter fingers, now if you were writing a review, wouldn't you take the time to ask?!?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LONE-STAR 370 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Disney should expand into Italian cream cake. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 I have a carrot cake cookie at least once every trip. But have never bought one at Writer's Stop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The person thinks it was butter fingers, now if you were writing a review, wouldn't you take the time to ask?!?!I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Don't tell anyone, but I actually prefer it over the carrot cake cookie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 I've never had a carrot cake cookie. Maybe I can talk David into getting one next trip so I can have a taste. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They are the BEST there. None other compare. Too big for me alone, so I share with FWGirl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've seen all the pictures and have to believe the ones at the shop next to Starring Rolls are the same. Have you had one from there? Has to be the same bakery.

LONE-STAR 370 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Had them from both places. I like the Writers Shop better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveInTN 3,247 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 Had them from both places. I like the Writers Shop better. Are they seriously different? It's the same park....I figured they came from the same place. I can't imagine anything being better than what I've had. I need proof. Someone needs to buy both and mail them overnight to me.

Starbuc71 162 Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 Well we finally found the writers stop and I will have to agree it's probably DHS best kept secret. It was a nice place to stop and enjoy a drink and especially a carrot cake cookie. This was our first time having one and it rocked. It will defiantly be on all our stops to DHS BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DramaMama .......... Janet 75 Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 Thrill Shakespeare loves the carrot cake cookie but it is too rich for me. I have tried different things there and enjoyed them all - but I will have to say some would be better served warm. I had a danish with dark chocolate filling a few weeks ago. It was good (and huge) but the leftovers were amazing the next day after 20 seconds in the camper's microwave! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
