Disneyland has seriously been killin’ it with all those amazing Get Your Ears On Celebration treats! We’ve already reviewed the awesome Fried Chicken and Beignets at Orleans Cafe in Disneyland and the yummy Mickey’s Chocolate Cup and Brownie at Fiddler, Fife, & Practical Cafe in Disney California Adventure Park – you can check out all the limited edition eats here. But today we got to try the FINAL snack to be released in the Get Your Ears On Celebration and we got the FIRST SLICE EVER — I present to you…the Celebration Cake!

We showed up at Disneyland’s Plaza Inn today anxiously awaiting the release of this limited edition treat only to be told it wasn’t going to be released until Friday…wait…WHAT?!
It seems like snack merchandise is the name of the game in 2019 and Disney is speaking our language! We first spotted the next wave of Disney snack goodies in Disneyland and couldn’t wait for them to make it to Walt Disney World. That day has arrived folks! I give you: SCENTED SNACK PILLOWS!!

Disneyland Resort’s second park opened on February 8, 2001, so DCA is 18 years young today!
After a rocky start, I think DCA has really come into its own. With the addition of Pixar Pier, Guardians of the Galaxy Mission Breakout, and now Marvel Land coming to the park, there’s so much to enjoy and to anticipate!
But today we wanted to celebrate this enterprising little park by sharing some of our favorite treats — old and new — to get at the snack locations and shops around DCA! Let us know which is YOUR favorite!
It’s not a visit to Disneyland Resort without stopping for a corn dog, and one of our favorite spots is Corn Dog Castle! Here you can get a traditional hand-dipped corn dog, but you can also order the Hot Link Corn Dog and the Cheese Stick Corn Dog. See our review here! The Hot Link is a spicy dog coated in classic corn batter. It’s delicious and packs a bit of a punch!
Hot Link Corn Dog
The Cheese Stick Corn Dog is exactly what you think: a stick of cheddar cheese that has been battered and deep fried. [Read more…]

The lunch and dinner menu here has retained some of our old favorites (like Panko-Crusted Long Beans!) and added some newbies. [Read more…]
