food IS a theme park
There are so many souvenirs to grab at Disney World, but some of our favorites to snag are the cute popcorn buckets, which can be both stylish and functional (as they’ll hold your popcorn and get you some discounted refills)!
Holiday Merchandise
We’ve seen quite a few popcorn buckets released over the last few months, including some special ones for the holidays, but today we found an extra special bucket in EPCOT!
The 2021 Taste of EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is set to begin this Friday, January 8th, but we’ve already started to see some decorations up around the park!
Festival of the Arts
While we’re very excited to celebrate the culinary arts at this festival, we’re also looking forward to hopping into a few paintings and celebrating the visual arts with some creative photo ops. We’ve seen these fun photo experiences up at the Festival of the Arts in the past, and now we’ve spotted a few already in place in EPCOT.
We’re totally fine with Disney rolling out the holiday treats early. We already had a Valentine’s Day Red Hot Cinnamon Cupcake that was the bomb dot com.
Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Sandwich
We noticed that another Valentine’s treat has arrived a month and a half in advance. The crowd-favorite Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Sandwich is back for the most romantic time of the year. But. Um. It’s not quite what we remember.
Just yesterday, we happened upon a veritable pineapple treat EXPLOSION in Disney Springs, with new snacks making the most of that tropical taste even in these cooler winter months. Today, one of our stops along the way is Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
Orange Creme Cupcake at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge
And, as it turns out, there’s already a bit of summer fever in the flavors here, too, as we’re checking out the new Orange Creme Cupcake at Roaring Fork! [Read more…]
Just a few weeks ago, we were looking for those signature, GIANT Disney lollipops in Magic Kingdom, but they were out at the Main Street Confectionery the time. In their place were some Mickey Jawbreaker Lollipops.

Today as we walked through Magic Kingdom, not only did we found a whole bunch of adorable lollipops, we found some with adorable new-to-us designs!
One of Disney World’s most iconic attractions has been closed for quite some time now.
PeopleMover Closed
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover has been closed since the Disney parks closed last March. That’s almost TEN MONTHS with NO PeopleMover. The ride was scheduled to reopen on January 10th, but the closure has been extended AGAIN.
Greetings from sunny California!
Buena Vista Street
We popped into Downtown Disney yesterday to take a gander at everything new! Southern California is currently under a stay-at-home order, so shopping and dining are limited. Still, here are all the updates in food, construction, and merchandise!
Are you planning on hitting up Sprinkles the next time you’re in Disney Springs in Disney World or Disneyland Resort’s Downtown Disney?
Sprinkles in Disney Springs
I’m willing to bet YES… and if that’s correct, you’re going to want to be in the know about the January CUPCAKE flavors at Sprinkles! [Read more…]
We’ve spotted some surprising things on Disney rides, like an unexpected character on “it’s a small world” or Anna without a face on Frozen Ever After.
Gran Fiesta Tour
Gran Fiesta Tour Starring the Three Caballeros in EPCOT’s Mexico pavilion has also had its fair share of unique situations. Just last year, one of the Caballeros went missing(!!) and just a pile of flowers stood in his place! Eventually our feathered friend returned, but today ANOTHER one of the Caballeros has gone missing and you won’t BELIEVE what replaced him.
Greetings coffee lovers! We’ve got news for YOU!
Creature Comforts
We popped into Animal Kingdom’s Starbucks location, Creature Comforts, today to try out the NEW Starbucks beverage as a part of the updated winter menu. Get ready to get nutty — there’s a new PISTACHIO flavor!
