Disney fanatics, now is the time to freak. Mickey Mouse ice cream bars are rumored to be coming to grocery stores. According to Instagram user @lovethemousetravel, to celebrate Mickey Mouse’s 90th birthday, Nestle will take their famous ice cream bars out of the Walt Disney Parks and into fans’ homes.
“You heard it here first,” the Instagram user wrote in a January 8th post. “If you love Mickey ice cream, well you’re in luck. In honor of Mickey Mouse‘s 90th birthday Nestlé will be bringing your park-favorite Mickey premium bars to a grocery store near you. Starting in February 2019, check out the freezer section for your little taste of the magic.”
Are we dreaming?
As pictured in the post, each pack of Mickey bars will come with 6 separate frozen treats. Like those found in the park, the bars are made with vanilla ice cream and then dunked in milk chocolate.
But we don’t want to get our hopes up just yet. According to The Daily Meal, Nestle has yet to confirm that all this is going down. This could be a big Mickey birthday hoax — but we’re praying to Walt that it’s not.
Just imagine… every day could feel like a Disney day…
Needless to say, people in the comments are freaking out.
And on Twitter.

Others are demanding answers from their grocery chains.
@AskTarget I’m super curious. Will your Mississippi stores be carrying the Mickey Mouse ice cream bars when they become available?

Kroger is pleading the fifth.

Our kind of ice cream:
Until we know for sure that these Mickey Mouse ice cream bars are real and headed to stores near us, we’ll just have to stick to the OG park versions.
