Greetings from Epcot! Between enjoying the Flower and Garden Festival, seeing construction progress (on SO many projects), finding new paper straws, menu updates, and so much new merchandise… well, we were pretty busy!
Hello from Epcot!
Let’s start our update in the parking lot this week.
WOW! Our latest visit to Epcot was packed with new finds! We caught up on all of the construction progress in the park, found new menu items, enjoyed some adorable sweet treats, and added more Disney items to our must-buy list!
Hello from Epcot!
Take a park tour with us to catch up on all that is new in Epcot!
Epcot is in the middle of a multi-year transformation.
The transformation includes new rides, a Play Pavilion, re-imagined park entrance, new restaurants, and a new nighttime spectacular. Our latest visit to Epcot included catching up on the progress of all of this construction.
World Showcase Lagoon Construction for New Nighttime Spectacular
We started our visit out in Future World and checking on the progress of the Guardians of the Galaxy ride.
Epcot is busy with the International Festival of the Arts starting this Friday — we’ll be reporting live from opening day — but we still found new must-have food-themed merchandise being added to the shops as well as new drinks, sweet eats, teas, and construction progress — we’ve got it all covered!
Hello from Epcot
Let’s jump in with that brand new space-themed restaurant near Mission: Space opening in 2020!
Ever since Epcot’s Kringla Bakeri og Kafe reopened in August 2018, we’ve been keeping an eye on the pastry case to see what old favorites returned and what new treats await. Just a few days ago, we told you that Troll Horns (finally!) made a comeback! And just yesterday we let you know about the Troll Kreme Spiked Slush that’s perfect for fortifying the spirit before jumping in line for Frozen Ever After.

And now we’re bringing you a sweet treat that’s reindeer approved (because, after all, reindeer are better than people). It’s Sven’s Apple Cheesecake, and it’s lovely in its simplicity.
in Epcot’s Norway Pavilion reopened after a lengthy refurbishment late last August.
Kringla Bakeri og Kafe
Among the returning classics to the spot were popular items like School Bread, Berry Cream Puffs, and Sweet Pretzels. As happy as we were to have those beloved snacks back, one question we asked — as did many DFB readers — was, “But where are the Troll Horns?”
For those unfamiliar, Troll Horns are a slightly crunchy sugar-coated pastry horn-shaped shell filled with cloudberry jam and whipped cream. [Read more…]
Tomorrow is Halloween, and VERY soon, Disney World will be trading jack-o-lanterns for Christmas trees and holiday garlands. But Pumpkin Spice season is NOT over yet, my friends!
