food IS a theme park
Since December of last year, everyone in the Disney spheres has been talking about one thing and one thing only…

…Encanto! (What, did you think we were going to say Bruno? We don’t talk about him). Okay, maybe we’ve been talking about a liiiittle more than that (like the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser and the crowds in the theme parks), but Encanto has been a hot topic ever since it hit Disney+ last year. And now, the film has brought some new treats to Disney World!
There’s a LOT happening in Disney World today!
Hollywood Studios
First of all, it’s the first official voyage for the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, so we’re onboard the Halcyon for all the excitement. Over at EPCOT, it’s also the first day of the International Flower & Garden Festival. But Hollywood Studios apparently didn’t want to be left out of the fun, because the park got EIGHT new snacks today…and we’re testing them out!
There’s ONE thing in Disney World that seems to change more than anything else. Do you know what it is?
We’re suckers for Disney cupcakes.
That’s right, cupcake flavors! It seems like when we stop by a Disney World restaurant that sells cupcakes, there are often new flavors with new sugar decorations, a pile of icing on top, and most likely, some kind of unique filling in the middle. But hey, we’re not complaining — it just means more yummy desserts for us to try! And when we stopped by Disney’s Wilderness Lodge today, we were greeted with yet another treat to add to our LONG list of reviews.
If there’s one thing we know about Disney World, it’s that they’re not afraid to go all-out to celebrate a holiday. For the 50th Anniversary, there have been tons of decorations, incredible shows, brand-new rides and restaurants, and more. Christmas includes its own entertainment and lots of decorations in the parks and hotels.
Valentine’s Day Treats
Now we’ve moved into a new holiday season. This is one that doesn’t always get quite as much love as the others, which is ironic since it’s Valentine’s Day! But there are still plenty of ways to celebrate the holiday of love in Disney World, including a LOT of new treats. We’re heading into a Disney World hotel to try out a NEW Valentine’s Day offering!

Disney loves to go all out with special new treats for holidays.
Be mine, Valentine!
With Valentine’s Day quickly approaching, red and pink treats are arriving all over Disney Parks, and naturally we ✨have✨ to try all of them. And you know what we found today? Let’s just say it involves fluffy beignets and a LOT of cinnamon.
Have you heard about our obsession with Gideon’s Bakehouse?
Gideon’s Bakehouse
In case you’ve missed the last year of us freaking out over their huge and delicious cookies, decadent cakes, and amazing cold brew, Gideon’s is a bakery in Disney Springs that has become hugely popular since it opened this location in January 2021. Each month, they have new seasonal flavors of all their treats, and it’s no surprise that the lineup for February looks incredibly tempting! [Read more…]
Here at DFB, we’re pretty much always on the prowl for new snacks in Disney World!
Hollywood Scoops
And sometimes, we’re surprised — not with a new treat to try, but with one of our old favorites returning to the park! That’s what happened recently when we stopped by Hollywood Studios…except this time, the treat got a bit of a makeover. (So naturally, we had to try it again! 😉)
Price increases happen frequently in Disney World, but today we got a BUNCH of new ones.
There were several price increases in the parks today.
Several food items all across Disney World got bumped up in price, including the fan-favorite Dole Whip. And now, it looks like another famous snack is joining that list!

Disney World gets price increases frequently.
While using the phrase “price increase” may make you think of theme park tickets or hotel rooms, it’s not always that massive. We’ve often seen small price increases at restaurants or on popular merchandise items. And today, a famous snack got a price increase in Disney World!
Although Disneyland Resort is the Happiest Place on Earth, sometimes things happen.
Pooh Corner at Disneyland
We’ve seen issues with the launch of Disney Genie+ and there was flooding that caused “it’s a small world” holiday to open later than originally scheduled. Today, we saw an issue arise at one of our favorite snack spots!
