Our latest trip to Disney’s Magic Kingdom was filled with lots of specialty merchandise (and cupcakes) that are only around for a short amount of time. From the Dumbo Sipper and Popcorn Bucket to Main Street Bakery’s NEWEST cupcake plus those adorable Dumbo cupcakes — we’re covering it all for YOU!
Dumbo Cupcake
These limited-time treats are hard to get your hands on, but don’t worry — we’ve got the lowdown on how and where to find them!
Limited-Time Goodies
debuted their LATEST cupcake — the Mickey Mouse Club Mousketeer Cupcake!
Mouseketeer Cupcake
This JUMBO treat (seriously, it’s a really big cupcake!) features the classic Mickey Mouse colors and a double dose of buttercream frosting. You can read the full review over here!
Mouseketeer Cupake
It’s a cupcake crawl kind of week! Over in Storybook Circus at Big Top Treats we were lucky enough to try BOTH of the limited-time Dumbo Cupcakes!
Dumbo Cupcakes
Dumbo and Peanut Butter cupcakes, sell out quickly and both may not always be available. On this trip we got the LAST Dumbo cupcake and got word that some days they may only sell one of the two options.
Vanilla Dumbo Cupcake
You really can’t go wrong with either cupcake, but if you want to be sure you get to try them head to Big Top Treats soon — they’re only around through the month of April. (Read our full review here!)
Chocolate Dumbo Cupcake
If you’re looking to get your hands on one of those Casey Jr. Popcorn Buckets you better head to the Storybook Circus Popcorn Cart; this is the ONLY location in the Magic Kingdom currently selling this adorable bucket!

Dumbo Sippers can be purchased at both Friar’s Nook and Pinocchio Village Haus.
Dumbo Sipper Cup
If you purchase both, they actually link up and become a train — how cute is that?! If you want to add these to your collection you’ll want to get them soon, as they’re only available while supplies last.
