Going to Knots Berry Farm for a boysenberry funnel cake has become one of our Disney vacation traditions. We ride the Anaheim Resort Transportation to Knotts, shop a while and then stop and eat the funnel cake.This funnel cake is not your regular size funnel cake. It is very big with a huge amount of boysenberries and a huge swirl of ice cream. In the past we have gotten one each but learned that is way too much so we buy one and share. It is a perfect amount of delightfulness!This year was no different. We spent the day at Disneyland, then in the afternoon decided to head over to get our boysenberry funnel cake. We shopped some then went into the little restaurant that sells the funnel cakes. Sadly I cannot remember the name of it. I just know it is after the shops closer to the park enttance
The wait to get your funnel cake is usually long but it is well worth it. You also get to watch them make your funnel cake.
As I watched the guy make our funnel cake this year I notice that one of them came out a bit over done. Then the next one was too. I told my mom they looked a bit burnt but she said it was probably ok, it just looked that way. I agreed and did not want to wait anymore so didn't say anything to the guy working. In years past the people cooking them would have thrown those out and started over. This guy did not. I figured it would be ok.
They put our berries on and our ice cream. We took it over and sat down to eat. The berries were delicious and the ice cream was great too but the funnel cake portion was very crispy. It felt like we were chewing rocks. I kept thinking I should go ask for another one since we paid quite a bit for it but decided I just did not want to wait on them to cook another one.
We ate our crispy cake and totally enjoyed the boysenberries and ice cream but the funnel cake was not at all good.
A couple of days later we got one at Disneyland and it was delicious even though we had strawberries instead of boysenberries.
We will go back for our funnel cake next time, however we will ask them to give us another one if they burn ours.
