food IS a theme park
We love going to Isle of Java in Animal Kingdom for its delicious pastries — hellooo, Tiger Tail Chocolate Twist.
Isle of Java
But today we’re here to tell you about something we haven’t tried before! The Party Parrot Slush has flown into Isle of Java, and it’s ready for a good time!
Welcome to this week’s What’s New in Animal Kingdom!
Expedition Everest
We have a lot to tell you about, including the delicious Orange Blossom cocktail, some pretty fabulous headwear and special edition plush, and a new MagicBand featuring “all the colors of the wind”! Let’s get started!
It’s time for some chocolate — with a twist! — in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

! We’re at Disney’s Animal Kingdom today to show you What’s New in the park! Come along!
Hello from the Animal Kingdom!
On Discovery Island, Isle of Java now has the Simba Cupcake. [Read more…]
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.
There has never been a shortage of chocolate twist pastries around Disney World and Disneyland parks. But we just got word that they unveiled an updated version at Animal Kingdom this week — right on the heels of the brand new chocolate donut holes that made their debut recently!

You can now get Chocolate Danish Twists, decorated with white chocolate stripes on them! Maybe we should call them Zebra twists?? [Read more…]
Disney’s Animal Kingdom is busy getting ready to welcome otters to their new otter grotto. Plus, we found some new chocolate donut holes, a new Disney World Parks tumbler, and more on this week’s visit to the park!
Animal Kingdom Otter Grotto Construction Progress
There are some new signs up in the under construction otter grotto area. And that isn’t all we spotted in this area.
Ok, so… the new Chocolate Donut Holes at Isle of Java in Disney’s Animal Kingdom may not sound as interesting as the Apple Cider Donut Holes which these have replaced.

But wait until you see them!
Chocolate Donut Holes
The three Chocolate Donut Holes are rolled in sugar and spice, then fried. But the finishing touch of chocolate-orange glaze is MUCH more impressive in person than as it appears pictured on the sign.

We went to the Animal Kingdom looking for animals, and instead found aliens and yetis! But, don’t worry, they are super cute!
Alien Straw Clips
This little alien is at The Feeding Ground on a straw clip just waiting for you to choose him! Check out these newest straw clips here! They are also found at Pizza Planet in Disneyland!
Our next adventure in the parks took us to Animal Kingdom on the search for new food, new merchandise and any updates for you!
Animal Kingdom’s Tree of Life
We were excited to see and say “welcome back” to a cupcake friend featuring Lion King‘s Simba as our day in the park started at Creature Comforts.
