The Walt Disney Company is expanding Mickey's on-going 90th Birthday celebration beyond the berms of their parks.
A Nestle Spokesperson recently announced the following regarding a out-of-park offering of Disney's Mickey Ice Cream Bars:
Nestle via Delish wrote: We are excited to confirm that the Mickey Ice Cream bars will be available in stores for a limited time.
A release date nor pricing have been confirmed; however, it has been reported that the iconic ice cream will be sold by Nestle in 6 bar boxes. The offering will reportedly be a "limited edition" and feature special packaging celebrating Mickey's 90th birthday.

Has anyone found these yet? I searched Walmart yesterday without any luck.
I'll meet you at the Rainbow Bridge.
At walmart, probably were left in the shoe aisle.

It seems a few cities may have received an early shipment.
None at my local national chains, yet.

Thanks. I'll keep waiting then.

I wonder if they have less carbs if you get them in the store vs. Disney.... jk;)

Since the bars in the store are physically smaller, I guess they would have less carbs....LOL Just means you have to eat two rather than one!! ("Take two, they're small[er]!!")

Found them today at my local Kroger's priced at $7.49 for the box of 6 bars.
Should be at any semi-national or national chain that carries the Nestle brand, look where the other Nestle brand ice cream novelties are.

Everyone else is too busy eating them to be bothered to respond.

So thoughts on the Mickey 90th Ice Cream Bars vs the Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bars.
Taste wise, I'd say the 90th version is more overpowered by the Chocolate flavor while the Premium version is more balanced.
Size wise, the 90th version is smaller than the Premium version.
Ingredient wise, the 90th version is made with Skim Milk ice cream and a Cocoa & Chocolate based Coating while the Premium version is made with a MilkFat/Non-Fat Milk blend ice cream and Bitter Chocolate & Cocoa Butter based coating.
Overall, the 90th version isn't bad and it adds a bit of a Disney touch to your dessert, but I would personally say there is a reason why they dropped the word 'premium' from the name.
