food IS a theme park
Tis the season for eating WAY too many sweets!
Christmas at Disneyland!
We’ve been all over Disney World and Disneyland Resort trying out snacks, from gingerbread treats at the impressive hotel displays to exclusive eats at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Jollywood Nights. But there’s a Disneyland snack we haven’t talked about yet, and we’re here to share a FULL review!
In case you hadn’t noticed, today is a VERY special day!
Walt Disney: One Man’s Dream
It’s Walt Disney’s birthday! And with us being…well…us…we think the best way to celebrate is WITH FOOD. So if you’re heading to Disney World OR if you’re just celebrating at home, we’ve got somee of Walt’s favorite foods that you can get at Disney World and recipes you can make at home!
It’s March 14th, so you know what that means…it’s National Pi Day!
Mickey and Minnie’s Blueberry Pie
And we’re BIG pie fans here at DFB. Whether they’re miniature, inspired by our favorite movies, or straight out of the parks, we can’t get enough! So if you wanna do some baking in honor of this holiday (it IS a holiday, right?!), we’ve got the recipes for you! Let’s get started.
Wave the flag and light the roman candles! #DisneyMagicMoments is cooking up another recipe that should hit the spot for your 4th of July celebration this weekend!

This Apple Pie recipe is inspired by our favorite slice from Whispering Canyon Cafe at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge in Walt Disney World. Ever been? Well, if you haven’t, the restaurant is known for silly antics and delish dishes like the Cowboy Sundae. Now, you can bring the lively spirit of Whispering Canyon to your home!
While we’ve been watching LOTS of Disney+ and building our own DIY Cinderella Castle out of toilet paper, we’ve worked up quite the appetite.

Although there are plenty of great Disney recipes to bake, we’ve made a list of the MUST-TRY eats and treats from the Disney films that you’re going to want to make ASAP.
Call up Snow White because we think that she’s going to want to try this fall-flavored dessert from Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor!

It’s APPLE TIME! At least it almost is. And Disneyland is getting a leg-up by bringing back a favorite from last year!
Yee-haw!! Howdy from Disney’s Wilderness Lodge! We decided to mosey on over to Whispering Canyon Cafe, because they changed their dinner menu earlier this week.
Whispering Canyon Cafe
Whispering Canyon Cafe has long been a favorite spot for comfort food, all-you-can-eat skillets, and rowdy antics from the servers, and we were excited to see what new eats they had to offer!
has been a staple of fun family dining at Walt Disney World’s Wilderness Lodge for years.
And I’ve enjoyed a meal and the overall atmosphere many times over the years. This has been the place to go for raucous hijinks like wooden pony races, massive straw drops, and tables overloaded with ketchup bottles.
That’s all to say: there has never been much whispering going on at Whispering Canyon Cafe. But it’s a place where fun was front and center, food was decent (although never particularly inspired), and diners knew they’d have a good time.
But that history of silliness and play was all in jeopardy last year when Whispering Canyon Cafe got a bit quieter. That’s because — for reasons unknown — Whispering Canyon Cafe toned the fun way down last May.

Or did they? After we posted about the major changes coming to the Cafe, our readers reported a lot of variation in their dining experiences. Some found the quieter setting, while others still witnessed hijinks. [Read more…]
