food IS a theme park
Not all Disney souvenirs are created equal.

If you’ve been to Walt Disney World, you know that the resort offers a litany of souvenir options. You’ve probably brought home a pin, plushie, popcorn bucket, or spirit jersey from one point or another. However, have you ever been tempted by a four-figure piece of jewelry?
It is Hispanic Heritage Month, and locations around Disney World are celebrating with several new food offerings!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
You’ll find new snacks around Disney Springs celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month. Eet by Maneet Chauhan, The Polite Pig, Sunshine Churros, the Cilantro Food Truck, and Amorette’s Patisserie are all serving up new and tasty foods. There’s also another baked goods shop that has recently announced its Hispanic Heritage Month specialty treat, and boy, does it sound tasty!

It may be Halloween season, but Disney World is also celebrating another extra special holiday!
Spaceship Earth
It’s Hispanic & Latin American Heritage Month, and that means there are dozens of delicious treats to try around Disney World, as well as some special entertainment and offerings. We stopped by EPCOT recently to check out one of those limited-time celebrations!
Epic Universe is well under construction and looking great!
Construction of Epic Universe @bioreconstruct
The new Universal theme park is set to open in 2025 with five new lands — Celestial Park, Dark Universe, The Wizarding World of Harry Potter — Ministry of Magic, Super Nintendo World, and How To Train Your Dragon — Isle of Berk. We’ve been keeping tabs on the construction and noticing when rides have been constructed, and other details show up. Recently, we noticed something black, toothless, and winged pop up that is quite adorable!
The only constant is change — and that’s especially true at Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
Walt Disney believed that the parks would never truly be finished, and we’ve seen that firsthand lately with new rides, restaurants, and even massive transformations like we saw at EPCOT. But, Disney isn’t showing any signs of slowing down at all and we’re predicting three huge changes for Disney World in 2025. Let’s get into it.
The EPCOT Food & Wine Festival is underway, and we’ve been enjoying everything the festival offers.
2024 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival
There’s obviously a LOT of food to try at all the various food booths, and we spent the first weekend of the festival tasting EVERYTHING. Then there’s some fun entertainment, including the Eat to the Beat concert series where you can catch some live music from some pretty notable artists during the festival. However, there are also a lot of festival drinks, and we’ve told you about some of our favorites, but now we’ve got to tell you which ones you need to avoid.
Is there any place where a foodie feels more at home than at EPCOT??
Japan Pavilion
Now when it comes to your dining experience, Disney usually leads the way to accommodate for all types of food allergies, which makes it incredibly easy to recommend just about any restaurant for people dealing with a particular allergy. That being said, there is this one EPCOT restaurant that absolutely CANNOT accommodate this one specific food allergy, so let’s talk about it!
Lougefly Mania is real. How do we know? Cause we totally have it!
We love Loungefly bags!
Yup, a lot of us here on the DFB team LOVE Loungefly bags, so we are always on the lookout for the latest ones. During our search, we discovered some NEW bags that are exclusive to Amazon, and we are OBSESSED. So if you’re a fan of Loungeflys too, you’ll definitely want to check these out!
