If you’ve been dazzled by the dancing display of lights twinkling around the Boardwalk lately, or dreaming of when you’ll finally be able to taste one of those fluffy cake slices from Disney World’s upcoming restaurant, we just got one step closer!
The Cake Bake Shop sign
We’ve been tracking the progress of a highly anticipated addition to Disney World since before its construction began and this latest visual update may suggest an opening date announcement could be coming soon!
Since there’s been a little movement happening around Disney’s Boardwalk Inn lately, we decided to hop on by and see if there had been any further updates to some of the upcoming features. One place we’ve been particularly invested in for a while has been The Cake Bake Shop.
The Cake Bake Shop
We’ve been eagerly anticipating this latest addition to Disney World as its construction appears to be nearing its end. Most recently we’d gotten a peek at the menu, a few twinkling lights around its signs, and even seen more of the hedges surrounding it removed.
More hedges removed
However, on this latest visit out, we spotted a few things that may suggest an opening may be happening sooner than we thought! New seating has been placed outside with a few tables and chairs on the side of the restaurant…
Seating outside!
…as well as a few between the restaurant and bakery.
More towards the center
We also noticed there’s just a sliver of shrubbery surrounding the outside of the building which could suggest that work’s dwindling down to the final touches! As we approached the restaurant, we also noticed a sign that read a private event was in progress.Â
Closed for a private event
Due to this, it would stand to reason that the majority of the inside of the restaurant is presumably finished! While neither The Cake Bake Shop nor Disney World has officially made an announcement about the upcoming restaurant’s official opening date, you can bet we’ll be keeping a close eye out for it when it does happen!

Eagerly anticipated until you see the ludicrous prices…..
Not really interested. I would have to take out a loan for a slice of cake. It can’t be worth that high price. Nothing rarely is
I like the idea of the Boardwalk BUT how do you get there without a reservation for dining or hotel reservations. They don’t really want you there for just shopping. I have a hard time understanding how they expect people to shop and spend time and money there!!!
I won’t be going here. It’s too bad, because it’s obviously going to be a beautiful restaurant, and those little outdoor tables are adorable, but the prices are just too high.
Yes, of course I plan to go when we stay at Boardwalk in December. Happy to see new place to eat at Boardwalk. It seems positively empty with the bars/restaurants on either end of the Boardwalk closed.
Those prices are outrageous.
Even though some of the prices have changed it’s still too high. Her prices at her other restaurant and bakery are cheaper than Florida. Florida prices on cake slices $22 and over, glass of tea $8.99. Her restaurant back home cake slices $17-$18 glass of tea $4. Florida is being charged $6 more for a slice of cake why because it’s a tourist place. What a shame
