food IS a theme park
This time of year, what Disney World lacks in snow, it MORE than makes up for with enough gingerbread desserts to make your tastebuds think you’re in Arendelle!
Welcome to Fort Wilderness!
From gingerbread churros to Gingerbread Salted Caramel Buttercream Cookie Sandwiches, we literally can’t get enough! Now a NEW cupcake contender has entered the festive fray, and it’s showing up NOW for Mobile Order at Fort Wilderness Resort!
We’ve been busy trying out all the holiday snacks at Disney World, and new ones keep popping up every day!
Holidays at the Magic Kingdom 2020
And a lot of those snacks are cupcakes, including Wilderness Lodge’s Christmas Cupcake, an eggnog cupcake, and a red velvet wreath cupcake. And so many of these cupcakes are so pretty to look at, but the proof is in the taste — which is why we buy and try them ALL!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year!
Holiday Cupcakes
That means that holiday flavors are ALL over the place, and we’re here for it! We’ve tried so many festive goodies around Disney World, and now we’re trying another one at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge!
We’re checking in on a DFB favorite today!
Mermaid Tail Cupcake
Last year, Disney introduced an absolutely iconic cupcake at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, and we’ve been obsessed with it ever since. Hello there, Mermaid Tail Cupcake! Even with all the ups and downs of the year, we’re glad to say you can still get this treat!
Here at DFB, we’re suckers for a fun cupcake!
Thanksgiving Cupcake
Holiday cupcakes are especially fun! This season we’ve had a peppermint cupcake, a cupcake with a hidden Mickey, an Olaf cupcake, and a red velvet wreath cupcake, to name a few. We’re pretty much always down to try a new cupcake, and today we tried an eggnog one!
If you’ve been following along with our posts, you know that excellent holiday snacks aren’t just limited to the Disney Parks — there are tons of options in Disney Springs as well!
Mickey and Minnie Tree in Disney Springs
We’ve tried the Holiday Yule Log, the Chocolate Peppermint Crème Brûlée, the Jolly Holiday Float, the Gobbler Poutine, and so many more delicious treats so far! It seems that more festive snacks are arriving every single day, and today, we’re expecting another sweet treat to return to Sprinkles — the Christmas Cookie Cupcake!
If you’ve been following along with us at DFB for the past few weeks, then you’ve probably seen TONS of holiday posts and articles from Walt Disney World.
Christmas at Magic Kingdom
However, we’ve also been spending time celebrating on the West Coast at Disneyland Resort! Even though the parks aren’t open, we’ve been checking out all the holiday offerings in Downtown Disney and the newly reopened Buena Vista Street. We’ve tried holiday snacks, shopped for holiday merchandise, and even gotten to experience Christmas decorations! And when strolling through Buena Vista Street in Disney California Adventure today, we spotted an adorable Christmas cupcake that we couldn’t resist!
Here at DFB, we love a good cupcake!
Menagerie Cupcake
We’ve tasted A LOT of cupcakes over the years, and we like to think of ourselves as experts in the Disney cupcake world. Just recently, we’ve reviewed the Menagerie Cupcake, the Twice Upon a Christmas Cupcake, the Olaf’s Snow Flurry cupcake, AND the Simba cupcake. That’s a lot of cupcakes! But now, another holiday cupcake has returned to Walt Disney World, and you know we had to try it!
We’re dreaming of a white Christmas complete with polar bears at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Animal Kingdom Christmas Tree
Ok, so it’s still reaching the high 80’s in Florida, but we can dream about the holidays! And, it’s a good thing that this returning cupcake popped up way earlier than expected to make our dreams come true!
Slowly but surely, as more Disney World restaurants reopen, we’re welcoming our favorite Disney comfort foods back into our lives!
Harambe Market
And since we’ve been craving ribs like WHOA, the latest comeback at Animal Kingdom has us doing our best Lion King impression and roaring with excitement!
