I'll keep trying to manifest one extra show or meet and greet when they have these hogwarts events

I was first in line to try the new butterbeer waffle, they said it could take 15-30 mins to be ready...so just a heads up if you get in when they open depending on staffing it could take a minute to get this item

Anyway its good, the Butterbeer flavoring comes from the topping not on the Waffle. Its 12ish dollars and not a meal but still a solid size for a theme park. If you like Waffles go check it out

There was one other item...I think a creampuff but....thats it for this event so far. The TMs did not have the new Mug and one told me April would be when its in and I asked the people about merch and they said it had no come in yet

So yeah, I just don't get it. You put this up on signs around the park like its an event...but then have two new food items?

Also Universal runs these right? Someone (a normal person) was trying to tell me this is on WB for forcing Universal to do these events. So wanted to see if anyone knew if that was true or not

If I ever drag my butt up to the park, I definitely want the waffle & cream puff.. if those are the only 2 special offerings

As for the merch delay... yea, it was an issue for HHN as well. Thanks to the current shipping/Tariff situation unfortunately. It sucks.

Disappointing to hear the butterbeer flavor isn't in the waffle itself, but it might be overpowering if it was

That’s exactly why I prefer it this way. Butterbeer treats can be cloyingly sweet, so keeping the waffle neutral lets me control the sweetness with the syrup.

Its pretty solid, not mind blowing but the Waffle it self is good and the topping do mix well


Some will be confused when you eat it and don't taste it, because normally if you get an Oreo Waffle then its made of said product not just a topping. But so far I've only heard people enjoying it
