food IS a theme park
It’s no secret that we get excited about Disney World food, especially NEW Disney World food.

We’ve had a TON of that already, too, what with Women’s History Month bringing us all kinds of female-forward snacks, while the green dye has come out for loads of St. Patrick’s Day treats. We’ve also got bunny butt snacks and other treats to look forward to for Easter. Now, though, one of our FAVORITE Disney World restaurants has revealed some brand new desserts!
I travel to Disney World SO many times a year that I can’t even keep count. No, seriously!
Cinderella Castle
I’m lucky in the sense that I have a very strange, very cool job working here at DFB. This job just so happens to result in me sitting on an airplane somewhere between Texas and Orlando A LOT. If I had to guess, I’d say I visit Disney World maybe 20 times a year? But I’d have to do some serious math to figure it out! Anyway, today I’m spilling a major secret with you. You’ve maybe heard the words “boyfriend air” floating ominously somewhere online, but I’m here to scare you with two new phenomena — theme park air and airplane air. Traveling can be SO harsh on your skin, but don’t panic –I’m here to save the day with a few recommendations!
It’s a new month in Disney World — and you know what that means!
Salt & Straw
Well, the month of March is Women’s History Month, so we’re already trying out some new women-inspired treats in Disney World. Plus St. Patrick’s Day snacks have arrived. PLUS Easter snacks are everywhere, too. Best month ever? Well, there’s also something else to look forward to this month: new cupcake and ice cream flavors in Disney Springs.
You may think you have your go-to spot for a quick bite in Magic Kingdom, but we’re here to challenge that idea a bit.
Caramel Apple-Pecan Hand Pie
Deciding on just where to eat on a day out at the park can be tough, especially if you just want something that’s pretty basic, quick, and won’t sit too heavy on your stomach. While we’ve had some great light bites and sweet treats to try out here recently, sometimes you just want a full meal to keep you satisfied, and we may have found the perfect option for you!

Changes are inevitable, but are they always good?
Are you ready for the changes?
Sure, Disney World has always had to change and grow over the years, and that’s true about any industry really. But we wanted to find out what your thoughts were about the changes that haven’t had the most positive impact on your Disney World vacations. We asked and boy, did you deliver!
Magic Kingdom is filled with fun secrets and surprises for guests to participate in throughout the day.
The Partner’s Statue
You may be selected to throw the first pitch over at Casey’s Corner, or you may be the chosen one who can lift the sword out of the stone in Fantasyland! Well, one of our reporters got picked to do something special over at the Main Street Cinema, and some of you might not have known about this experience.
We have some amazing team members on the DFB crew, and some of them used to work at Disney World!
Spooktacular Dancers
Specifically, a few of our coworkers worked in Magic Kingdom, but for some of them, it’s been a few years. We asked all our former Cast Members if they could tell us some juicy secrets they learned as Magic Kingdom Cast Members, and BOY did they deliver! The following secrets are top-notch, so grab your popcorn and get ready for the tea!
A LOT of big changes are in store for The Walt Disney Company as CEO Bob Iger wraps up 15 months of his second stint as chief of the company.

On Tuesday, March 5th, Iger met with analysts at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media, and Telecom Conference to discuss highlights from the past 15 months as well as the next direction for the Company. While much of what he said were things we already knew based on his discussion of the four key building opportunities that Disney has for 2024, we did get some extra confirmation that Disney had some BIG plans in the future. Let’s talk about it!
St. Patrick’s Day is right around the corner (right before Easter this year!), and you know that means Disney is celebrating!

We’ve been excited about these snacks since they were first announced, and we’ve already tried a few of them, but there were still three more we needed to grab! We snagged all three over the weekend and are here to tell you if they’re worth your money, or if they’re cuter on the poster.
Stars — they’re just like us!

Okay, maybe not entirely, but from what we’ve seen they certainly love going to Disney World just as much as we do. From NFL champs and movie stars to Disney executives and more, we’ve spotted quite a few famous faces in the parks lately. And, it looks like a former Disney star herself took a recent trip!
