food IS a theme park
Happy Pride Month, DFB friends!
Rainbow CAKE?!
We’ve been celebrating the first of June with plenty of rainbow treats, from colorful cakes to cocktails. And now, we’re here to tell ya about ANOTHER boozy sip you can grab.
June has officially arrived, which means it’s time to get started on our summer reading list! If you need a few more ideas on what to add to your list, Salt & Straw at Downtown Disney may be able to help!
Salt & Straw
Every month, we look forward to finding out what new seasonal flavors will be added to the menu. In the past we’ve seen very unique scoops of ice cream inspired by bowls of cereal, holiday flavors, and yes, even Thanksgiving turkey. Just in time for summer, we now have several new BOOK-inspired flavors.
ICYMI: the Jungle Cruise is undergoing a pretty big reimagining!
Jungle Cruise
We’re seeing a hefty retheme — including a new storyline! — debut on both coasts for this classic attraction, and we’ve been closely following the progress. In Magic Kingdom, that means hoppin’ aboard the ride (which is remaining open throughout the project) to see what’s new. And today, we spotted somethin’ a little different!
Summer is upon us!! And since it’s June (Can you believe it???), that also means that it’s Pride Month.
How cute are these?
And Disney World is celebrating with merchandise and new sips and treats. Polite Pig has added a rainbow concoction to their menu with a brand new cocktail!
If you love cupcakes, then you may have heard of (and visited) Sprinkles at Disney Springs in Disney World or Downtown Disney in Disneyland!
Sprinkles Cupcakes
Each month, Sprinkles typically has a number of limited time flavors that become available. Today, we’re giving you ALL the information you need to know about the flavors that will be available in June!
We hope you’re in the mood for some shopping!
Mickey and Minnie Runaway Railway Loungefly
It’s a new month, which means we’ve got some NEW Loungefly releases to show ya! But settle down with a snack, friends, because we’ve got a LOT of ’em this month. And they’re all available for pre-order now!
Oh, Gideon’s, you’ve done it again. 🌈
Gideon’s Bakehouse
Once we think that we’ve found our new favorite item at the bakery, Gideon’s Bakehouse rolls out something else that makes us do a hard pivot towards the next best thing on the menu. Our freezers can barely handle the amount of Triple Chocolate Coffee Cake and Peanut Butter Espresso Cookies, Hand Pies, Cake Dips, and more that we’ve got stacked up. Buuuut, we’d be happy to try and find some room if it means we get to take home TWO more themed sweets from Gideon’s!
Certain parts of Disney World remain closed as the resort operates at a limited capacity.
Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
While some hotels and restaurants are reopening soon, others remain closed. Still others are closed temporarily for planned refurbishments! Of course, you’ll want to note about all of these changes if you’re planning on visiting, so we like to keep you updated. Now, we’re bringing you all the hotels and attractions that will be closed in Disney World in June 2021!
Good news for Festival of the Lion King fans!
Festival of the Lion King
This classic show reopened in Disney’s Animal Kingdom last month — and although there are some differences to the performances nowadays, we’re happy to see it back! Even though social distancing in the theater has been reduced, it remains a popular show, and you could have trouble snagging a seat. Luckily, that just got a bit easier!
Buckle up — we’re about to show ya something REALLY cool.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Over at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa, you may spot some chocolate sculptures popping up every now and then. And guys — they’re seriously impressive. We’ve seen designs inspired by Mickey and Minnie, holidays, characters, and more. But now, the talented Cast Members at the Grand Floridian Bakery have done it again!
