food IS a theme park
Welcome, adventurers! We’re back with another What’s New at Animal Kingdom.

We have a lot to show you — including colorful frozen drinks, more unique windbreakers, animation experiences, and more — so let’s get started!
The lion may be the King of the Jungle, but the elephant is definitely the coolest!
The Elephant Cupcake at Creature Comforts
And HERE’s a blast from the past!! Who remembers our FIRST review of an elephant cupcake on Disney Food Blog? Way back in 2012 we reviewed this awesome german chocolate cake version of the elephant cupcake.
But times have changed, and now the SAME elephant is back…with a very sweet surprise!
Welcome to this week’s What’s New in Animal Kingdom!

There are always new things to discover in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! This week we wandered through the newly re-opened Tree of Life Garden, enjoyed cupcakes as well as some Tasting Sampler treats that are sticking around, found a spot serving Irish Coffee, and spotted new Lion King Family Pride shirts for the whole family!
Hello from the Animal Kingdom!
Now that the Otter Grotto is open, the Tree of Life Garden paths are completely open again, too; they were blocked during the refurbishment of the Otter Grotto. We enjoyed a walk along the garden path on our visit.
