food IS a theme park
Are you as pumped about Disney’s upcoming movie, Raya and the Last Dragon, as we are?!

The brand-new animated film releases in theaters on March 5th and Disney+ subscribers can watch it with Premier Access on the same day. In honor of the special occasion, we’ve spotted a lot of new themed celebrations in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, including snacks, a sand sculpture, and new options at the Animation Experience! Let’s try out one of those fun new treats!
You know what’s awesome? BEIGNETS!!!!
New Orleans cuisine in Downtown Disney
And beignets are a BIG deal over on the West Coast at Disneyland. Not only can you get Mickey-shaped beignets (at least when the parks are open), but you can also get some yummy beignets at Downtown Disney at Ralph Brennan’s Jazz Kitchen.
Over at EPCOT, we’re still waiting for some of our favorite restaurants to reopen!
Morocco
This is especially true over at the newly-reopened Morocco Pavilion — we’ve been waiting for both Tangierine Cafe and Restaurant Marrakesh to open their doors again! But now, there’s a new snack option in the Pavilion you might want to check out.
If there’s a new Disney snack, you know we just HAVE to try it!
Magic Kingdom
We recently tried a BUNCH of new treats for Valentine’s Day, which left us feeling quite full. But now that the holiday has passed, we’re back to trying all the snacks that aren’t dyed pink! We spotted a new churro flavor in Disney Springs today, and it caught our eye…but it may have missed the mark just a bit.
It’s Valentine’s Day!!!
Le Petit Cafe
And we are running ALL over Disney World this weekend checking out the Valentine’s Day snacks and drinks! Which means we HAD to make a stop at Le Petit Cafe, which always blows us away with its beautiful pastries!
Sometimes, we have to wonder why we see certain Disney souvenirs EVERYWHERE in the parks.

And one particular souvenir has recently turned up at both Disneyland AND Disney World, and we’re starting to think Disney is really trying to get rid of it as quickly as possible.
The Ganachery at Disney Springs has come up with a lot of cool things to do with chocolate!
The Ganachery
After all, this is the chocolate shop that gave us the slightly creepy, but fun Olaf Hot Chocolate Bombs, as well as the big chocolate pinatas that we can hit with a hammer to get at smaller treats inside!
It’s Valentine’s Day weekend, y’all!
Sunshine Churros
And we’ve been eating our way around all the Valentine’s Day treats at Disney World, including TONS of cupcakes (SO many cupcakes) brownies, drinks, and more! But we’re not done yet… .
In terms of whimsical Disney World snacks, Oreos and churros go together like peanut butter and jelly!
Churro
The two dessert titans have officially joined forces for a limited time Oreo Churro special to Disney Springs, and if you’ve got a sweet tooth, this is one treat you do not want to sleep on! [Read more…]
