When it comes to the Harry Potter universe, fans have a lot to draw from. All seven of the Harry Potter books are filled with delightful references to food, starting with Dudley Dursley’s Knickerbocker Glory and ending with Cauldron Cakes. Dining at Hogwarts, as it turns out, isn’t a pleasure reserved only for wizards.
It’s no secret that one of the most magical experiences in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios is the food. Any muggle with a ticket can visit Hogsmeade or Diagon Alley—and treat themselves to Chocolate Frogs and Bertie Bott’s Every Flavor Beans (but watch out!).
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter even has a fan dedicated Instagram account, where you can scroll through its many treats. We’ve assembled here some of our favorites + a recipe for Butterbeer to make at home.
