  1. We love visiting Pandora in Animal Kingdom whenever we visit, and the film that inspired this land is finally getting a sequel! Pandora at Animal Kingdom Avatar: The Way of Water is coming to theaters on December 16th this year, and we’ve been waiting patiently for every trailer we can get our hands on until the movie is out. Now the time has finally come — another Avatar: The Way of Water trailer just dropped! Check out the new Avatar: The Way of Water trailer below! Unlike the first movie, it looks like quite a bit of this film is taking place underwater. You can catch Avatar: The Way of Water in theaters on December 16th, 2022 — it’s playing in 3D as well as regular showings so you can choose how you want to view this epic sequel. Avatar inside the Flight of Passage line If you’re heading to the parks while you wait for the film to release, we suggest taking a ride on Flight of Passage and eating a meal at Satu’li Canteen, or checking out some of the cool merchandise we’ve seen online recently.

  2. The holidays will be here before we know it! 2021 Holiday season in EPCOT Lots of people are focused on Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, and Christmas at the moment, but New Year’s creeps up on many people every year. Disney World is open for both New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day (you can check the park hours here), and if you want a sit-down dining reservation for one of those days, you’ll have to be quick because they can go FAST. If you want one, you’re going to want to grab it NOW! You can grab your New Year’s Day dining reservations in Disney World starting TODAY, and you’ll want to hurry to get yours because a lot of people visit the parks for the holidays, which means these reservations are in high demand. New Years Crowds Not sure how Advance Dining Reservations work? Not to worry, we’re here to help. Some Disney restaurants (including most sit-down restaurants) require reservations to dine at, and those reservations open 60 days in advance of your tip. That may sound like a long time, but some popular restaurants like Cinderella’s Royal Table book up in seconds. Cinderella’s Royal Table To book your reservations, head into your My Disney Experience app and navigate to the dining section. You’ll be able to put in how many people are in your party and on what day you’d like to dine. You’ll then see which restaurants are available for that date. Alternatively, you can head to Disney World’s website and look up specific restaurants to book reservations, or call 407-WDW-DINE (3463). Click here for our complete guide to booking dining reservations. If you don’t get the reservation you want, don’t panic! You can keep checking back as your trip approaches, as some people cancel reservations before their trip, and you may be able to snag it! ‘Ohana is another very popular dining spot There are also plenty of quick-service restaurants in Disney World that don’t require reservations, so if you don’t want to deal with the hassle, you’ll still have plenty of choices on where to eat. Be sure to grab your park pass reservations too, because certain parks are already at capacity, and it won’t be long until the others do as well.

  5. It’s officially November and Disney World is rolling out quite a few treats in celebration. Look how cute this little guy is! We have already tried a fall whoopie pie, mini pumpkin, and cherry Dole Whip, and now we’re back with another review for ya! What sort of festive, fall treat are we trying this time around? Let’s find out! If you find yourself at Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory at Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter, you may spot the Praline Pecan Cake. Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory This cake is available from now until November 27th and is a pecan cake topped with praline icing garnished with spiced candied pecans for $5.99. We were so excited to give this one a try since it deviated from the long list of pumpkin treats Disney World has released lately. But how does it compare?? Praline Pecan Cake You definitely need to be a fan of pecans to like this dish — but that probably isn’t a huge shocker considering it’s a pecan cake. That nuttiness was the most prominent flavor in the cake, which was also spongy and moist. It’s definitely a fun twist on the traditional pecan pie! This was really good! The powdered sugar and icing added a sweetness to the nuttiness and spice of the cake, while the candied pecan topping added the perfect crunch. We do wish it was a bit larger as we felt the portion was small, but this would be a great treat for pecan fans or those looking for a fall treat that ISN’T pumpkin flavored. If you’re looking for a sweet dessert or something a bit more in-your-face-fall, we’d suggest skipping the Praline Pecan Cake! Praline Pecan Cake Looking for more of the Thanksgiving treats we have tried around the parks and resorts? Well, we’ve got ya covered. We’re trying all the new eats and drinks from around Disney World, and you can check them out below! Be sure to stay tuned to DFB for the latest Disney food news and more.

  6. Fall certainly isn’t over yet, and that means one thing: MORE Disney treats! Magic Kingdom We saw lots of new delicious treats for Halloween and made sure to try all of them out so you knew what was worth your money, and we’re gearing up to do the same thing for this upcoming season! Today we’re heading over to Beaches and Cream at Disney’s Beach Club Resort to try their new pumpkin treat. The Pumpkin Pie Shake is a salted caramel shake with caramel drizzle, sprinkles, and a whole slice of pumpkin pie on top. Yes, you read that right. An ENTIRE slice of pie on top of a milkshake! We’ve seen similar milkshakes in the past like the Pumpkin Spiced Butter Pecan Shake, but that had a cute little pumpkin cupcake on top. So what is this pumpkin pie shake like? Pumpkin Pie Shake is now available! We’ve gotta start with the showstopper here — the pumpkin pie itself is DELICIOUS. It’s very creamy and has a nice amount of pumpkin spice making it the ideal pumpkin pie, in our opinion. The whipped cream on top is a nice addition as well. The pie also has Mickey ears which are milk chocolate and they were yummy! The star of the show Once we got past the initial awe at the pie, we tried the milkshake which was equally as amazing! It was thick but not too much to where it gets stuck in your straw. The salted caramel flavor really shines in here and it’s super sweet. Delicious! When thinking about what could make this treat better, we came up short! It was exactly what Disney described and the execution was just about perfect. The only fault to some may be that it is too sweet — this thing is VERY sweet, but we thought it was pretty balanced for anyone who normally likes sweet things. You’ll need a sweet tooth to eat this entire thing This over-the-top treat will cost you $15. You can grab it from now until November 27th, so be sure to visit this month if this is on your must-try list! Looking for the perfect outfit to wear around the parks this holiday season? The DFB Store has you covered! Be sure to check out all of our new merchandise that’s perfect for the holidays. We found something to go with your DFB top and all your other holiday clothes! Disney is getting tons of new treats for the upcoming holiday season, and you can bet we’ll be trying them all, too. Tons of holiday merchandise is already available online, and decorations have already made their way into the parks as well. As always, stay tuned to DFB for all the upcoming holiday news!

  7. We’ve seen a TON of things return to Disney World over the past several months. Tusker House Traditional character meet-and-greets and traditional character dining has returned to many spots, and a lot of restaurants have reopened (with even more on the way!). One restaurant that returned in 2021 was Tusker House in Animal Kingdom. But it came back as a family-style meal, instead of its traditional buffet. And that’s how things stayed…until now! Buffets are BACK at Tusker House Restaurant in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! This is a character dining spot in the Africa section of the park where you can see Donald Duck and his friends decked out in safari gear. Since the restaurant reopened last year, the spot has been serving meals via family-style dining, as opposed to its regular buffet service. But now, the buffet is back! Let’s take a look at what they’re serving up over here. The Buffet Has Returned! When we went to the restaurant today, we stopped by the check-in desk… Check-In Area …and then made our way into the restaurant when our table was ready. Time to Go Inside At the table, you’ll find the drinks menu with alcoholic beverages you can buy at an additional cost. Our Table We were also given an autograph card. It’s Pre-Signed! While the food is back to buffet service, we were provided some bread (rolls and Zebra bread) and a dip at the table. That was brought to us right after the Cast Member took our drink order. Bread and Dip Be careful not to fill up on too much of the bread before you hit the buffet! While the videos above show some of the items, we wanted to highlight a few more. Pork Did we mention there’s a lot to pick from on this buffet? Veggies and More It’s not over yet. Wait…There’s More It just keeps GOING. Will You Try These? And the desserts will seriously tempt anyone with a sweet tooth. Wow, They’re So Pretty One dessert even featured a design with the Fab 5 in their safari best. Fab 5! In other words, we had NO problem filling up our plate! Ummm yeah, we’ll be going back for more We’ll be bringing you a review of this meal soon, so make sure to stay tuned to DFB for more! So Ready to Dig In!

  8. Halloween is over and now Disney World is officially in holiday mode. Fall on Carousel of Progress But we can’t forget that holiday that’s hidden in the middle of Halloween and Christmas — Thanksgiving!! Disney World has just released a slew of new treats to get us in the fall spirit. So be prepared to feast with your eyes today as we hoof it over to a Disney World Resort hotel for some exciting new fall treats! We have already tried pumpkin muffins, orange cranberry scones, and a new cherry Dole Whip, and now we are headed over to Saratoga Springs Resort to try two more new treats! Artist’s Palette at Saratoga Springs From now until November 27th, you can find a Fall Whoopie Pie and a Mini Pumpkin Treat at The Artist’s Palette for $5.99 each. Thanksgiving treats at The Artist’s Palette First we tried the Mini Pumpkin. This little cutie of a treat is made with pumpkin mousse, caramel, dulce crunch, and chocolate decor. Can we talk about how utterly adorable this little pumpkin treat is?! It looks like a fall decoration you’d put on your Thanksgiving tablescape! Look how cute this little guy is! Pumpkin pie fans, this one is definitely for you — but you need to be QUICK to eat it as ours started melting as soon as we stepped outside (thanks, Florida!). The filling tastes exactly like pumpkin pie! The mousse was so light and fluffy — almost like if you were to whip pumpkin pie filling. The perfect little pumpkin The dulce de leche crunchy pearls were a nice touch and helped break up the monotony of the mousse texture, though we certainly weren’t complaining. We couldn’t really taste any of the caramel inside the pumpkin, which probably would have added a nice, nutty sweetness to the pumpkin. There was plenty of sweetness found in the chocolate pumpkin shell, though! It was REALLY sweet, and when paired with the mousse was a nice chance from the spice — but it wore out its welcome pretty quickly. This is a super fun treat and would be great for pumpkin fans. That is the main flavor though, so if pumpkin isn’t your thing this probably isn’t the dessert for you. A little bit melty, though… Whoopie Pies are something that tend to pop up more around the parks close to the holidays and can either be a big hit or a bit of a miss. So, we were excited to give this one a try. The Fall Whoopie Pie is made with pumpkin cake, cream cheese buttercream, and fall sprinkles. The ingredients are simple, but as you may have learned from reading DFB, sometimes simple is best with these treats! Fall Whoopie Pie Yep — simple is definitely the way to go here. The pumpkin cake is fluffy and moist, and has those warm, fall, spice flavors often found in pumpkin treats. It reminded us of a pumpkin bread more than a cake — it wasn’t overly sweet, which was a good thing in our book. The cream cheese buttercream didn’t really taste like cream cheese to us, instead it just tasted like regular buttercream icing and was incredibly sweet. The sprinkles on the outside added a crunchy texture that we didn’t think was needed and the edges of the cake were a bit chewy in some spots. Lots of icing You’ve definitely gotta be an icing fan to enjoy whoopie pies, and this one is no different. We were really hoping for more of that cream cheese to come through. If you’re looking for a fall treat, there are definitely better ones around Disney World — but if whoopie pies are your thing, give this one a shot! Whoopie pie We are just scratching the surface when it comes to all the new treats that were released today, so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for even more Thanksgiving treat reviews and more news throughout the holiday season.

  9. Can you believe it’s NOVEMBER?! Where has the year gone?! It feels like we were just gearing up for summer, but now, holiday decorations are lining the streets of Disney World. The Holidays have arrived in Disney World! That’s right, as soon as that clock strikes Midnight on Halloween, it’s down with the pumpkins and up with the holiday wreaths (well, we actually saw holiday decor go up BEFORE Halloween in some spots!).

So, let’s break down the BEST things to do in Disney World in November for those of you that have a trip coming up soon!

But, you can also get a Park Hopper ticket and head on over to Magic Kingdom at 2PM after you visit your first park, as long as the park isn’t at capacity.

  10. There is a lot happening around Disney World right now. Contemporary Resort Buffets are BACK at Tusker House in Animal Kingdom, Kona Cafe has reopened at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, construction has started on the iconic Grand Floridian gingerbread house, and a TON of new treats have been released at many of the Disney World hotels. Speaking of treats, we are back with ANOTHER review of a new item that has been released to celebrate Thanksgiving time. Christmas decor is up in Magic Kingdom, a holiday Starbucks cup has arrived, and holiday merchandise fills the shelves. But one treat in Disney World is holding on to pumpkin spice season for DEAR LIFE. The holidays have arrived, but one treat would have you believe otherwise! Over at Contempo Cafe at Disney’s Contemporary Resort you can find a Pumpkin Cheesecake. It should be available from now until November 27th! This cheesecake is made with pumpkin spice caramel and maple whipped cream, and it’s topped with fall leaf sprinkles as well as a chocolate leaf. Contempo Cafe releases some pretty amazing treats from time to time (We’re looking at you Peanut Butter Pie.) so we were excited to give this one a try! Our Cheesecake In terms of pure looks, it’s nothing tremendously special. The little chocolate leaf on top is a nice touch, but it’s not something that’ll necessarily blow away your Instagram followers. But it’s the inside that counts, right? Pumpkin Cheesecake Time! So how does it taste? Well, it actually had a nice, strong pumpkin spice flavor in the cheesecake which was good! And the pumpkin spice flavor actually worked really well with the caramel sauce. We also liked the theme here with the pumpkin spice cheesecake sort of serving as the Thanksgiving turkey, the sauce representing gravy, and the whipped cream serving as the “mashed potatoes.” What Do You Think? But it wasn’t all good news for our cheesecake friend. The consistency of the cheesecake itself was a little too mushy (in a not-so-great way) and it didn’t feel as thick as some good cheesecakes can be. The portion size was also quite small for its $5.99 price tag. Still, if you love things that taste like pumpkin spice and you simply MUST have all things fall, then this might be one you’ll enjoy. If, on the other hand, you’re looking for a bigger dessert (hey, can you blame a person for loving sweets?!), or want a more traditional, thick cheesecake, head elsewhere! A Peek Inside the Cheesecake If you do want to give this a try, stop by Contempo Cafe within the next few weeks — until November 27th! You can pick up this snack for $5.99. We will be sharing quite a few more reviews on all of the new fall/Thanksgiving treats around Disney World so stay tuned! You can see ALL of our photos and reviews of these items in one place HERE!

  11. The new Zootopia+ series is almost out on Disney+! ©Disney And Disney World is celebrating with an adorable new treat. But there’s a bit of a catch. You won’t find it in a Disney park, instead, you’ll have to travel to a Disney World hotel to give it a try. The NEW Zootopia Cheesecake can be found at Market at Ale & Compass and the Beach Club Marketplace for a limited time! We checked over at Beach Club Marketplace first, but they didn’t have any yet. However, The Market at Ale & Compass had what we were looking for! Zootopia Cheesecake It’s a sweet tart shell with a pumpkin mousse, blueberry curd and it’s topped with a chocolate Pawpcicle! Zootopia Cheesecake We really wanted to like this one because, come on, it’s adorable! But unfortunately this was not one of our favorites. The cheesecake is good as the base — it is just regular cheesecake. The blueberry curd is also not bad, but wasn’t amazing enough to make up for the peach mousse. Not impressed with this one The peach mousse was our least favorite part. The combination of the peach, blueberry, and cheesecake flavors here was not working well in our opinion. If you are looking for something adventurous and out of the norm, you might like this! But if you are a picky eater or don’t like interesting flavor combos, this is not the treat for you. Take a look If this treat sounds good to you, it costs $6.29 to give it a try. If you want a fun treat, but aren’t thrilled by the flavors like we were, don’t worry! This isn’t the only new treat you can get at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Resort right now. They have also released quite a few new treats to celebrate Thanksgiving. So be on the lookout for a Pumpkin Pie Shake, a Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin, and more if you find yourself at these hotels this month! Also, if you are a big Zootopia fan and want to know more about what Disney is doing in the parks for the film, you will want to know more about the proposed land for Animal Kingdom.

  12. In case you missed it, November is Christmas — at least in Disney World it is! Christmas has arrived at Disney World! We JUST celebrated Halloween, but Disney said “goodbye” to the spooks and “hello” to the holiday cheer! Decorations arrived in Magic Kingdom overnight, the shops are full of holiday merchandise (including new ears and a Starbucks tumbler), and there are new treats to try. But now we’re headed to Disney’s Beach Club Resort to check up on one of the best things to see during the holidays in Disney World — the gingerbread displays! On Halloween, we stopped by Disney’s Beach Club Resort where the Gingerbread Carousel was being assembled! There it is! We had to check back to see if the carousel was fully up and running — it was! The carousel was spinning around with its new Disney Princess theme this year. It’s running! As a reminder you can see a Tiana horse… Tiana …a Belle horse… Belle …a Snow White horse… Snow White …an Elsa horse… Elsa …and a Jasmine horse sitting off to the side of the carousel! Jasmine horse There are also 50th anniversary touches near the top of the carousel. 50th anniversary details Even though that was exciting, we were almost more excited to see that the gingerbread sweets shop was open! At several of the gingerbread displays, there will be a treats stand where you can buy festive treats and gingerbread cookies. A Cast Member told us that this was a soft open today and they expect to be fully open by tomorrow, November 2nd. How exciting! The shop is here! You can find a variety of treats here from rice krispies treats to cookies. Treats There are also build-your-own gingerbread sets and themed marshmallow pops available for purchase! We spy a snowman marshmallow pop! They also sell gingerbread shingle cookies! Shingles We spotted a bucket of Beach Club holiday pins as well. Pins So if you’re craving a festive snack, be sure to stop by the gingerbread snack stand. It will be around all holiday season long! Stop by this year! If you’re looking for more things to do around the holidays this year in Disney World, you can attend Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party in Magic Kingdom! You’ll want to grab ticket soon, though — several nights of the event have already sold out. Also, the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays kicks off on November 25th and we’ll be covering EVERY booth as usual! Stay tuned to DFB to see what you should try on your visit to the festival.

  13. Hold that peppermint mocha for one second and put away the candy canes — there are new FALL treats in Disney World that you might want to try! Up close Yes, we know that the holiday merchandise is already on sale and snowflakes have started to appear in the parks, but the season of pumpkins hasn’t ended just yet and we’ve got proof! A whole bunch of fall-themed treats have arrived in Disney World (or will be arriving in time for Thanksgiving), and of course, we had to try some to give you our honest thoughts on whether these are worth the cash. Right now we’re heading to Disney’s BoardWalk Deli to try 2 snacks that have just arrived. New deli First up we have a Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin. This is a pumpkin muffin with cream cheese filling priced at $3.99. Disney has marked this as a “new” offering, but it isn’t exactly the first time we’ve seen a pumpkin cream cheese muffin made available in Disney World. Back in 2020, a pumpkin cream cheese muffin arrived in Disney’s Animal Kingdom and it was seriously fantastic. We also saw a pumpkin cream cheese muffin offered in 2022 at Trolley Treats in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. So how does this “new” muffin compare? Put away the pumpkin, because we really liked this one! Our reporter doesn’t traditionally enjoy scones, but they really liked this snack. The scone is super soft with orange zest baked into the pastry — this flavor alone was incredible. Scone Even if you aren’t a cranberry fan, you should give this a try. The texture changes when it’s baked on the treat and goes really well with the orange. We also thought the orange glaze was a nice touch and very refreshing. We love this one! We were really trying to see if there were any flaws with this snack, but we couldn’t find any! This is a really great option to grab for breakfast as you head into the World Showcase entrance of EPCOT or as a snack midday. However, if you do not like orange, stay clear of this treat. Delicious Both of these treats are available now through November 27th, so you’ve got a few weeks to give them a try.

  14. We hope you’re hungry because it’s time to talk about a major Disney World staple — food! Pineapple Dole Whip That’s right, Disney has released a ton of new treats for the fall/Thanksgiving season and we are reviewing a ton of those items for you! We want to make sure you have a good idea on what you should totally try and spend your money on and what you should skip when visiting the parks this holiday season! We are trying out the NEW Cherry Blossom Swirl from Backstretch Pool Bar at Disney’s Saratoga Springs hotel. This treat should be available from now until November 30, 2022. New Dole Whip Alert! This is a new DOLE WHIP creation, so you best believe we were excited to try it out. The Cherry Blossom swirl is Dole Whip cherry swirled with vanilla soft serve. We thought it sounded simply delish. But is it worth a trip to Saratoga Springs?! Let’s find out shall we! CHERRY! First off, we need to talk about soft serve ice cream in Florida. It. Melts. And in this treat, the vanilla soft serve melted more quickly than the cherry swirl, leaving one half more “soupy” than the other half. Trust us: Get the cup. Our best suggestion for dealing with this is to order the Cherry Blossom Swirl in a cup, rather than on a cone. It’ll be less messy to eat, and you won’t lose any of your treat. The cherry Dole Whip flavor was tart and tangy, and while some cherry flavors can remind us of cough syrup, this one did not. NOTE: This isn’t the first time we’ve seen cherry Dole Whip in the parks. The vanilla soft serve was — of course — sweet and creamy, and we really enjoyed the combination of the two. Tart, tangy, sweet, creamy … all in one bite. This treat is priced at $5.99 — at least according to the sign. We were actually charged $5.29 when we tried it. Is it worth going out of your way to visit Saratoga Springs for the Cherry Blossom swirl? If you are a diehard Dole Whip fan who wants to try all the flavors, we say yes! If you aren’t a fan of cherry-flavored things, though, this would be a kinda obvious pass for you, perhaps. WE KNOW – there are SO many great snacks at Disney World!

  16. Halloween may be over, but fall certainly isn’t! Fall decorations at Disney World There are lots of fall treats to try in Disney World this year, and we’re making sure to hit them all to tell you about them! Even though the Halloween treats may be gone, there are plenty of fall treats left, which is why we headed over to the Grand Floridian Resort and Spa for a new pumpkin fix. This Pumpkin Spice Roll is a pumpkin spice sponge cake rolled with honey-scented cream cheese with powdered sugar, dark chocolate, and autumn quins. This is available over at Gasparilla Island Grill. We’re just gonna start off with this — y’all, this thing is AMAZING. Seriously, the first bite gave us chills. It’s really that good. The pumpkin flavor is subtle but you can definitely taste it. It’s the right amount of pumpkin spice to be notable, but it’s not overwhelming. Hello, gorgeous! The honey cream cheese filling might be our favorite part! It melts in your mouth and also has a subtle flavor of sweet honey butter. DROOL. The cake itself is super moist and the chocolate drizzle is a nice sweet touch and doesn’t throw off any of the other flavors. Pumpkin Spice Roll Our only complaint was the leaf-shaped topper. It’s made with the generic white chocolate that Disney uses on lots of treats, but it’s not our favorite garnish. But hey, if that was our biggest complaint, it has to be pretty awesome, right? Inside If you don’t like pumpkin, you’ll probably want to pick a different treat, however the pumpkin flavor is pretty subtle. But if you are a pumpkin fan who isn’t ready for pumpkin spice season to end just because Halloween is over, this is for YOU. We’re obsessed You can grab this treat for $5.29 from now until November 27th! There are tons of other treats that will be coming to Disney for the holiday season, and we’ll let you know as soon as the official list is announced. In the meantime, if you’re looking for the perfect shirts to wear around Disney for the holidays, the DFB Store has you covered! We’ve got some pretty great shirts! Holiday decorations have already started popping up in the parks, and don’t forget to book your dining reservations for EPCOT’s Candlelight Processional.

  17. When you go on a Disney World trip, there are probably a few things on your bucket list. DOLE Whip Maybe it’s completing the mountain coaster challenge (riding Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in one day). Maybe you want to eat from every single booth at the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival! One thing that is on many guests’ lists on a Disney World trip is to eat an iconic snack like Dole Whip! There are so many flavors to choose from including classics like pineapple, but special flavors pop up from time to time (we’re looking at you, Pumpkin Dole Whip ). Now there’s a NEW Dole Whip float coming to Disney World! Pineapple Lanai Over at Pineapple Lanai at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, you’ll find the Explosion of Flavors Dole Whip!

  19. November is a BIG month for Disney World and we’re excited! Holiday decor We had a great time celebrating Halloween in Disney World with special decor, new treats, and Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, but now it’s time for the winter holidays! Even though Christmas and Hanukkah are in December, the holidays start much earlier in Disney World, so you can expect to see a lot of festivities around the parks this month. Without further ado, let’s look at 5 things that will be different in Disney World in November! EPCOT Festival of the Holidays EPCOT festival fans, are you ready? Because the 2022 EPCOT Festival of the Holidays kicks off on November 25th, the day after Thanksgiving!

However, November is the month that we get FULL. ON. HOLIDAY. just about everywhere you look! The stars will go up in Hollywood Studios, Main Street, U.S.A. will be lined with wreaths, the winter animal decor will arrive in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and each of the World Showcase pavilions will add their own holiday touch in EPCOT. That is a snowflake… Also, the iconic gingerbread displays are returning to some Disney World hotels this year!

  20. With Halloween behind us, we’re moving right along to another holiday! Disney World is getting a lot (and we mean a LOT) of new treats for Thanksgiving this year, so we’re going to try them out and let you know which ones you should prioritize during your upcoming trip. Happy Thanksgiving Let’s head to Disney’s All-Star Resorts right now to try 2 new Thanksgiving treats. Should you go out of your way to get these seasonal desserts? We’re about to find out! The first treat can be found at all 3 of Disney’s All-Star Resorts (Movies, Music, and Sports). Head to the Intermission Food Court, World Premiere Food Court, or End Zone Food Court to get the Gobble Wobble Bundt Cake (and with a name like that, we know you can’t resist this treat!). Gobble Wobble! The Gobble Wobble Bundt Cake is a cinnamon apple bundt cake with caramel buttercream on top and a buttercream turkey decoration. This cutie has cinnamon apple flavor Our first thought when tasting this little guy was “holy moley, this thing is delicious.” The cinnamon and apple flavors in this cake were very prominent, and the apple bits mixed into the cake add texture and keep it moist. It reminded us of a dense, sweet breakfast bread. Mmmm. Buttercream. We did not, however, detect many caramel notes in the caramel buttercream. It tasted like a basic buttercream to us. If you are a frosting lover, there is quite a bit of it there to make the turkey. We left some of the buttercream behind, because we didn’t want to overwhelm the great fall flavors in the cake. WE KNOW – there are SO many great snacks at Disney World! How do you choose (we don’t want to choose but will blow our budget on Day 1 otherwise)? We’ve got you covered! We have reviewed nearly EVERY snack available at Disney World, and we’ve written a series of DFB Guides about them! Plan your next trip with our DFB Guides! Check out our DFB Guide to Walt Disney World Dining + Snacks Bundle for all the details you need to plan your snackin’ and spending.

That’s great! …Unless you don’t know what to get the people in your life. Magic Kingdom holiday decorations We’re doing our best to bring you some gift guides ahead of time for your parents, Stitch fans, and everyone you need stocking stuffers for.

We’ve got the best gift card to get for every person in your life right here to help you out! We’ve got a lot of ground to cover, so let’s get started! For The Person Who Always Needs Something And Needs It NOW We all know these people right? In fact, maybe you ARE one. Many of us know the feeling of realizing you need something specific ASAP and you don’t have it at any store close to you (or you just don’t want to leave your house). That’s where an Amazon Gift Card comes into play! ©Amazon Amazon allows you to order their gift cards any amount you want, and you can select a variety of different styles. It’s also delivered by email or text message, so you don’t have to worry about the post office losing anything! Buy an Amazon Gift Card here! For The Person That Is The Hardest Person To Ever Shop For (AKA Dads) What about that one person who’s just impossible to shop for? Every year you have no idea what to get them and are afraid of getting something they don’t like. Just get them a Visa Gift Card! ©Amazon A Visa Gift Card can be used in most retail stores and online, so the gift receiver can use it for whatever they please. You’re giving them the money to pay for what they really want, which is a great gift in our opinion. Grab a $50 Visa Gift Card online here! For That Person With The Starbucks Obsession If someone in your life absolutely loves Starbucks, then a Starbucks Gift Card is the way to go! ©Amazon Coffees every morning can certainly add up, so grab your loved one a Starbucks Gift Card to treat them to a few drinks on you! Amazon allows you to order them in $25, $50, or $100 increments. Grab a Starbucks Gift Card online here! For The Makeup Guru Who Can Then Teach You Everything They Know An Ulta Gift Card would be perfect for the makeup lover in your life. ©Amazon Makeup can be really, really hard to buy for other people. You’re trying to find a brand they like, match the shade of their skin, make sure they’re not allergic to anything, and so much more. By getting them an Ulta Gift Card, you’re putting the decision in their hands, making sure they get the makeup products you were looking for. And maybe they’ll teach you a thing or two if you’re looking to learn! Buy an Ulta Gift Card here! Target…That’s It, That’s The Post A Target Gift Card…need we say more? ©Target There are just…SO many things you can find at Target. Clothes, snacks, toys, electronics, the list goes on and on. Most of us know someone (or are someone) with a bit of buying way more than they need when they’re in Target, so grab them a Target Gift Card to ease some of that financial decision. Grab a Target Gift Card right here! For That Person Who Never Leaves The House We all have that one friend. The one you never see because they’re a homebody? Why not get a Doordash Gift Card delivered to them! ©Amazon This way, they can have their favorite food delivered to their house, but it’s kinda like you’re treating them to a meal too! They’ll be so happy, they might just call instead of text you to say thank you. Grab a Doordash Gift Card here! For The Disney Fanatic (AKA Most Of Our Own Team) You knew it was coming. How could we NOT put a Disney Gift Card in here? Disney Gift Card You can choose anywhere from $25-$500 to go on a gift card and can add a message if you wish to do so. This way, they feel less guilty buying that souvenir or shopDisney item because they’re not spending their own money — it’s like you bought it for them! Grab a Disney Gift Card online here! There you have it — a gift card to buy for most of the people you want to send a holiday present to. It takes lots of the stress off of you and allows the recipient to buy what their heart desires.
