This month, guests can enjoy the Sea Turtle Cookie. Gideon’s Bakehouse is bringing back this fan-favorite flavor in March 2026. Don’t miss out on the crunch. Additionally, Gideon’s Bakehouse has put out a charity SOS!

If you are heading to Disney Springs this month, make sure your sweet tooth is prepared. The Gideon’s Bakehouse March menu has officially dropped, and it is a massive celebration for fans.

The Cookie of the Month: Sea Turtle Cookie

The arrival of March brings more than just a change in season at Disney Springs and East End Market—it marks the highly anticipated return of a true fan favorite. The Sea Turtle Cookie has officially claimed its spot on the menu at Gideon’s Bakehouse for March 2026, offering a decadent tribute to the classic “turtle” candies of 1918. This isn’t just a snack; it’s a nearly half-pound experience that masterfully balances textures and tastes, making it a staple for anyone documenting their Orlando food journey. Whether you are a local regular or a vacationer braving the virtual queue, this month’s limited-edition offering is one you cannot afford to miss.

Make sure to plan your visit to snag the Sea Turtle Cookie before it retreats back into the Gideon’s archives. Once you’ve had that first salty-sweet bite, you’ll understand exactly why the world is so obsessed with the dark, delicious magic. We have a full review here.

Slices of Heaven: March Cake Slices and Schedule

If you prefer your sugar in cake form, Gideon’s Bakehouse has several options daily. In addition to the Sea Turtle Cookie this month, guests can visit to purchase the Sea Turtle Cake. This cake at Gideon’s Bakehouse is a colossal, three-layer tribute to the classic 1918 turtle candy. This decadent dessert starts with deep, soft chocolate cake layers that provide a rich foundation for the star of the show: the Butter Pecan Buttercream. To elevate the “turtle” profile, each slice is laced with thick, homemade caramel and topped with a generous portion of whole candied pecans.

True to the Gideon’s brand, the cake strikes a masterful balance between sweet and salty, finished with their signature sprinkle of coarse sea salt. While the flavors are indulgent, the cake often carries a deeper mission; in previous releases, a portion of the proceeds has supported the Sea Turtle Conservancy, helping protect Florida’s local wildlife.

Since Gideon’s rotates its menu monthly, this specific cake is available on Wednesdays and Saturdays in March at the Disney Springs and East End Market locations. Whether you’re a fan of the crunch of the pecans or the gooey caramel centers, this cake is designed to be shared—though its legendary status makes it hard to give up even a single bite.

The Magic of Gideon’s Bakehouse

Gideon’s Bakehouse is far more than your average bakery; it is an immersive, Victorian-inspired haunt that has taken the culinary world by storm. Founded by Steve Lewis, the bakery’s name pays homage to a young boy named Gideon whose 19th-century cookbook notes inspired Steve to bring a century-old dream to life. This bakery concept allows for the creation of treats like the Sea Turtle Cookie

The shop feels like a cross between a gothic library and a Tim Burton film, filled with eerie portraits, flickering “candles,” and shelves of ancient books. Known for its “sophisticated and addictive” cookies that take more than 24 hours to prepare, Gideon’s has earned international acclaim for its commitment to quality and refusal to cut corners, ensuring every bite is as emotional and personal as the history behind the brand.
