food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Magic Kingdom!
Who else is ready to walk right down the middle of Main Street, U.S.A.?
And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!
When Friday rolls around, the first thing on our minds is the newest episode of WandaVision!

Although we’ve been on the lookout for themed Marvel cakes and buses in the parks, there’s a new merchandise collection online that’s caught our line of Vision! (Get it?)
If you love Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, we’ve got something exciting for you!
Disney’s Yacht Club & Resort
There’s just something about the atmosphere of the Yacht Club that makes us feel more relaxed. It could be the fact that we like to stuff our faces with delicious ice cream at Beaches & Cream while we’re visiting or just the sound of the boat’s horn as it takes guests between EPCOT and Hollywood Studios. Well, we stumbled upon a new souvenir that captures the atmosphere and has some hidden details for dedicated Disney fans!
After so many stops into the shops in Disney World, you start recognizing the same things over…and over…and over again.
Mitsukoshi Department Store
But, if you’re looking for the most non-Disney store at Disney World, you can head over to Mitsukoshi Department Store in EPCOT’s Japan Pavilion. The store is filled with unique gifts like peach rice cakes, strawberry Kit Kats, and cool color-changing shirts. We’ve even spotted some Animal Crossing plushes (it is Disney after all) and we found ANOTHER video game-inspired item on our visit today!
The Disney Skyliner is so much fun!
Skyliner
It’s become one of our favorite transportation options at Disney World, mostly because of the awesome bird’s eye view we get of Disney World! And we think some of you think so, too — because Disney is always releasing new merchandise with the Skyliner on it, including figures, popcorn buckets, MagicBands. and more! This next line is for the biggest Skyliner stans yet!
Disney has been coming out with a lot of merchandise recently (though, are they ever not?).
Pearl Minnie Ears
Gone are the days that you have to be in the Disney parks to snag a souvenir because a lot of it ends up on shopDisney. And, we’re not complaining about it — especially after the year we’ve had! Now, Walt Disney World Annual Passholders can enjoy their discount both in and out of the parks with a NEW limited-time discount on shopDisney!
This year marks the 30th anniversary of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. So Disney has been releasing LOTS of merchandise in honor of this tale as old as time.
‘Beauty and the Beast’ Topiary at EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival in 2020
Recently, we’ve spotted the Beauty and the Beast Home Collection at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World. But, now there’s no need to head into the parks to bring your home to life with classic Disney characters — the entire collection JUST dropped on shopDisney!
Stitch has been on a mission to crash every Disney movie he can, and this month, he’s made his way to one of the more romantic Disney classics.

If you’ve been keeping up with the latest Disney parks collection, you know that this 12-part merchandise series features Stitch “crashing” classic Disney animated films with some new merchandise (like pins and plushes) released every month! Last month, Stitch got into a rose bush from Beauty and The Beast. But this month, he’s gotten into something much tastier — and Disney is letting everyone get in on the action!
We have been taking in ALL of the scenes at the new expansion in the France Pavilion at EPCOT! Day or night, this new area is a beauty.
Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Area in the France Pavilion
We’re convinced that if we stay there long enough Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is bound to open at some point — right?! Though we don’t have an opening date for the new ride quite yet, we spotted TONS of new merchandise themed after the upcoming ride earlier this year. And people went nuts over it — including us! And now, we have great news for anyone looking for a new world traveling buddy in the form of a talking mouse.
This year, the Daytona 500 will take place on February 14th — how…romantic?

Whether you’ll be spending the day with your sweetie at the race track or racing cars around a play mat at home with the kids, Disney is getting in on the action. They will be bringing back Pixar’s Cars Week leading up to the Daytona 500! And, this speedy week comes with LOTS of new Cars-themed toys in honor of those who will be putting the pedal to the metal!
