food IS a theme park
Spring has sprung in Walt Disney World! Spring Break crowds are here, Flower & Garden is in full swing, and Spring treats have arrived! Spring also means a big CHANGE for one restaurant in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
Let’s head to Hollywood Studios!
We are making our way down Hollywood Boulevard to get another taste of spring at the parks. The characters are getting their best outfits ready, and we are bringing some hungry bellies.
It’s almost Mother’s Day… HOORAY for MOM!!
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
Disney is celebrating big with TONS of limited-edition treats, fun Brunch options, and even a Magic Shot with Mrs. Incredible (aka Elastigirl)! We’ve been trying all of the Mother’s Day treats around the Disney World parks and resorts (seriously… ALL of them), and today we’re also checking out a cupcake at Disney’s Contemporary Resort!
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!
Calling all cupcake lovers! Sprinkles is BACK with another limited-time cupcake that is making sparks fly!
Sprinkles Cupcakes in Disney Springs
Remember the Pineapple Upside Down Cupcake we showed you back in June? How could we forget! The gourmet cupcake shop in Disney Springs released another specialty cupcake that is downright patriotic. We made a special trip for the NEW July 4th Red Velvet cupcake released just today.
Is it just us, or are you LOVING all the sprinkles of snoap for the holidays in Disney World?
Snoap at Sunset Seasons Greetings
And, while you can walk through a (soapy!) Winter Wonderland at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Sunset Seasons Greetings, now you can have a box of Christmas treats for the holidays too!
You know that glorious smell of cookies and cupcakes baking in the oven?
Sprinkles in Disney Springs
This holiday season, we’re indulging in ALL the treats in Disney World and Disneyland. And, now we’re grabbing THREE cupcakes, just in time for Christmas!
Happy National Red Velvet Day, friends!
Sprinkles in Disney Springs
Sprinkles locations in both Disney Springs and Downtown Disney are getting in on the Red Velvet action with a couple of NEW limited-time treats.
We just learned that Toy Story Land at Disney’s Hollywood Studios will be opening on June 30 — but in the meantime, we’ve searched out What’s New NOW at Hollywood Studios (and nearby Art of Animation and Pop Century Resorts!). Let’s gooooooo!
At pop-up bars around the park, guests can order two new seasonal drinks. Baby Blues is comprised of Tito’s Handmade Vodka (SHOUTOUT AUSTIN, TX!), Bacardi Superior Rum, Tanqueray Gin, Blue Curacao, Sweet-and-Sour, and Sprite! And you get a glow cube, of course.
Green Screen is Absolut Pears Vodka, Midori, Pineapple Juice, and Sprite (again with a glow cube!).
(Anyone else as disturbed as I am on the pricing of these?)
Pop Up Bars Seasonal Drinks
IS HERE!!!
Seeing as we’re HUGE cupcake fans here at the DFB, this latest Disney Springs opening is a definite cause for celebration! And if you love cupcakes as much as we do, then this is great news for you, too, since Sprinkles was designated the “world’s first cupcake bakery” by the Food Network (the first location opened in Beverly Hills in 2005).
Of course, maybe you’ve already paid a visit to Sprinkles, which has locations in Dallas, Chicago, Las Vegas, and Nashville, among others. (Even though I prefer my beloved Magnolia cupcakes in the Village, I, myself, am intimately familiar with Sprinkles’ order-ahead policy and the employees at my local Sprinkles Cupcakes store pretty much know me by name.)
You may have tried one of the signature cupcakes, a house-made cookie, or some slow-churned ice cream (some locations carry all three, though some offer solely cupcakes). Maybe you’ve even zipped by one and grabbed a cupcake from one of the famous Cupcake ATMs.
But you’ve never been able to have one at Disney World… until NOW!

Join us as we head to Beach Club Marketplace for late-night bite!
Did you even know that Disney’s Beach Club Resort has a counter service location? Well, if you didn’t, you’re not alone. Actually, if it weren’t for the fact that it’s a Rapid Fill Refilling location, I’m not sure anyone would know that there’s hot food for sale here.
Let’s take a look at this shop and see if it’s worth your time to stop in.
You’ll find Beach Club Marketplace tucked into the side entrance of the Beach Club Resort if you enter from the courtyard located behind the lobby. Sound confusing? Yeah. It is.
Disney’s Beach Club Resort
If you enter looking for just a restaurant, you’ll quickly find that Beach Club Marketplace serves more than just one purpose, and looks more like a gift shop than anything else. Because that’s basically what it is. [Read more…]
