food IS a theme park
The wait is FINALLY over, friends — this restaurant on Disney’s BoardWalk has opened its doors, and we couldn’t be happier!
The Cake Bake Shop
The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers has been highly anticipated for many years now. Originally scheduled to open in 2023, the opening was pushed to early 2024…then Fall 2024, and here we are! Today, October 24th, The Cake Bake Shop soft opened the doors to its first Florida location — come take a look inside with us!
The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers is located at Disney’s BoardWalk. We have been keeping a close eye on the restaurant for a long time now, and we are eagerly awaiting its grand opening.
The Cake Bake Shop
Seating has popped up outside and we have seen private events happening recently, so we are hoping this new restaurant will open its doors soon. We got a glimpse at the menu ahead of the restaurant’s opening a few weeks ago, and we recently noticed that something has CHANGED!
Well, a new Disney World spot that we were honestly starting to think would NEVER open has taken a huge step toward opening its doors!
Cake Bake Shop Sign
The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers is opening on Disney’s BoardWalk, located right near Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, later this year. It was originally slated to open in late 2023, qand didn’t. Then it was slated for early 2024, and it also didn’t open then. Just NOW are we starting to see signs that it’ll be open before the end of this year. However, Disney fans have some THOUGHTS about this new spot now that the menu has been revealed, and trust us, we hear you!
Dining in Disney World can be harder than you may realize!
Disney’s BoardWalk
Not only are there countless restaurants inside Disney World’s four parks, but there are MORE restaurants located at each hotel on property, as well as in Disney’s BoardWalk area and Disney Springs. So how do you decide where to go? Well, that’s what we’re here for! We’ve eaten at every Disney World restaurant and can give you the scoop on what’s worth your time and money, and what you may want to skip. It’s important to remember though that while Disney World is a family park, there are certain areas that kids aren’t allowed (namely, bars), and while we love going to Disney World with our families, we do think there should be an age minimum placed at these restaurants at certain times of day.
BIG NEWS! Something HUGE has happened at Disney World’s upcoming Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers restaurant.

This restaurant will have both a sit-down dining room and a quick-service bakery counter, and it’s located at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. We’ve been following its construction for a LONG time, and we can’t wait to go inside and check out all the food and drinks, and now we’re one step closer to doing just that (and we are SO ready).
Disney World is pretty magical, even during the day.
Disney’s BoardWalk at night
But when it’s dark, and all the lights are low, the resort REALLY comes alive. First, Spaceship Earth literally has dancing lights all over it — and it’s INCREDIBLE. Then there are the nighttime shows like Luminous “The Symphony of Us” in EPCOT, Happily Ever After in Magic Kingdom, and Fantasmic! and Wonderful World of Animation at Hollywood Studios. But did you ever think you’d want to see a RESTAURANT at night in Disney World? Well, you may want to when Disney’s newest restaurant opens up!
Disney World is constantly changing, and there are so many exciting new projects on the horizon!
Disney World
Sometimes, attractions, rides, shops, and restaurants close to make way for new offerings, or they end up sitting abandoned. So much has happened this year at Disney World. We found out that eight new attractions will be making their way to Disney World over the next few years and also found out that certain areas, like Tom Sawyer Island, will close to make way for some of these new additions to the park. While we are still waiting for confirmation on when other areas of the parks will close, we have a list of 11 things that we permanently lost at Disney World this year.
Y’all…it’s really happening. IT’S REALLY HAPPENING!
Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs in Disney World
If you’ve ever visited Disneyland, you may have been lucky enough to have tried Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs. Maybe you were even brave enough to try the infamous Pickle Corn Dog. Well, ever since we learned that a Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs was coming to Disney World, we’ve been anxiously awaiting an opening date. Instead, we got a SURPRISE grand opening TODAY in Disney World. Yes, Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs is open for business at Disney’s BoardWalk.
It may only be August, but it’s time for Halloween in Disney World!
It’s Halloween in Disney World!
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party already kicked off for the season with trick-or-treating, special entertainment, and plenty of rare characters. And now, we’re spotting Halloween treats and snacks all around Disney World!
It seems like at least part of Disney World is ALWAYS under construction. Sure, EPCOT finally has most of its construction walls down, but there’s still a lot of construction happening elsewhere.
Disney’s BoardWalk
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is getting some new DVC villas, and construction is well underway for that. Over at Disney’s BoardWalk, we’re seeing a TON of construction with both the upcoming The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers and Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs. However, we just spotted some NEW construction happening over at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. Yes, the construction never ends, y’all.
