food IS a theme park
We’ve had a busy weekend checking out all of the tasty treats at the 2019 Epcot International Festival of the Holidays!
American Adventure
And we’ve seen a bunch of good eats LIVE around the World Showcase, but we’ve spotted one that’s DEFINITELY the biggest and it’s not exactly for eating. That’s right, the American Adventure Gingerbread display is here for 2019!
We’re at Disney Springs today to welcome another gingerbread display to the ever-growing Disney World gingerbread house family!
Amorette’s Patisserie
We spotted the recent addition at Amorette’s Patisserie! Let’s head there now!
It’s Christmas at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn!
Disney’s BoardWalk Inn
We love a visit to the deluxe resort’s lobby each holiday season as we’re continually impressed with their gingerbread display and decor.
BoardWalk Inn Gingerbread Display
We recently shared with you a first look as the display was beginning to take shape, and now we’re back to check in on the progress.
Exploring the Disneyland resorts this week has us saying “So, THIS is Christmas!”
Grand Californian Holiday Decoration
Holiday decorations have decked the halls of the Disneyland resorts and we are oh, so excited! There’s nothing that makes us feel quite as jolly as all the garland, tinsel, and lights. Add a colossal gingerbread house and we don’t want to leave the lobbies. With the Disney California Adventure Festival of Holidays in full swing, it’s positively WONDERFUL that the resorts now match the spirit of the park!
The gingerbread displays keep rollin’ in!
Boardwalk Entrance
And on a trip through Disney’s BoardWalk Inn’s lobby this morning, we saw this deluxe Disney World’s resort’s gingerbread display was comin’ along nicely!

Grand Floridian Gingerbread House
And while our eyes feasted on the stunning masterpiece crafted by Disney’s super-talented pastry chefs, we couldn’t wait to see what goodies would be available at the snack shop — nestled INSIDE the Gingerbread House!
There’s something so special about the magnificent gingerbread houses at Disney World during the holidays!
2018 Contemporary Resort Gingerbread House
Is it that they’re positively MASSIVE? Or maybe its the level of detail that the Disney pastry artists put into these magical cookie-based creations? Whatever the reason, we keep coming back year after year to see the awesome gingerbread artwork to be found around Disney World. And if you’re like us, you won’t want to miss out on any of this year’s displays!
It may be Halloween, but we saw a sure sign of Christmas today! The Contemporary Resort’s Gingerbread Castle in Disney World is going up!
Hello from the Contemporary
We can see the Castle, is in its “new” home for the second year in a row by the windows on the fourth floor. There it is — peeking out from between the Contemporary shops on the Grand Canyon Concourse!
Gingerbread displays at Walt Disney World
have become such an exciting part of the holiday celebrations that guests can literally plan an entire day around seeing them all. (We even include some tips on how to do so in our DFB Guide to Walt Disney World Holidays!)
2016 Grand Floridian Gingerbread Store
