DISCLOSURE: This post may contain affiliate links, meaning when you click the links and make a purchase, we receive a commission. Calling ALL Marvel fans! Avengers Campus You can already stop by Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure Park to swing webs with Spider-Man or grab some food that has been impacted by PYM Particles, or you can stop by EPCOT to save the galaxy (again) on Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. But what if you could have ice cream in a Marvel-themed spot inspired by something included in the set of an actual Marvel movie? Pretty cool right? Well…it might become a reality someday! In early July, Chris Hemsworth and Taika Waititi did an interview with Entertainment Tonight touring part of the set for the NEW Thor: Love and Thunder film. Theme park reporter Carlye Wisel (who cited @amymarksthesepics on Instagram) found a VERY interesting tidbit in this interview that we just had to take a closer look at! ©Entertainment Tonight During the interview, Hemsworth and Waititi tour part of the set of the movie, superficially the New Asgard set. Hemsworth notes that it was a sweet village once upon a time, but there has since been a significant amount of damage, destruction, and chaos. ©Entertainment Tonight As they walk around, you can see an ice cream shop in the background called “Infinity Conez.” ©Entertainment Tonight In discussing it, Waititi says that the shop was a special invention for the film but that he has it on “quite good knowledge that it’s gonna make it into real-life one day.” ©Entertainment Tonight Waititi then says “so keep an eye out for that!” The two stars then walked around more of the set and even broke pieces of the set, including part of the ice cream shop! As they’re throwing chairs and tables into the ice cream shop ( ) you can see some of the ice cream within and the Infinity Conez logo on the side of the ice cream display. ©Entertainment Tonight So…did Taika Waititi basically just announce that Infinity Conez is going to be a real thing? Could this ice cream shop be coming to a Disney park in the future — perhaps over at Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure Park, Disneyland Paris, or even Hong Kong Disneyland? Or maybe it’ll become part of some kind of pop-up Marvel experience? It’s…possible? It’s also possible that Waititi’s comments were made in jest. But if you need us, we’ll be sitting over here in a corner crossing our fingers and toes that Infinity Conez becomes a reality! ©Entertainment Tonight The possibility for puns and hilarious (and delicious) ice cream flavors is really endless! The Savory “Snap,” the “I Can Do This All Day” Strawberry Swirl, the “Strange” Salted Caramel — there are SO MANY OPTIONS. Seriously, Disney, if this is not already in the works, let’s make it happen! We’ve already seen a full dinner show experience themed to Marvel, a Marvel restaurant with cocktails and food affected by PYM Particles, and so much more — so the real question here is why NOT create a Marvel ice cream shop too?! ©Entertainment Tonight Can’t wait until Disney (potentially) creates this spot? Well, you can stock up on the Infinity Conez crewneck in the meantime! It’s on sale on BoxLunch for $34.23 (normally $48.90). ©BoxLunch Or you can grab an Infinity Conez shirt from Hot Topic! ©Hot Topic If you want to see more of the interview (and watch Taika Waititi, Chris Hemsworth, and Natalie Portman throw stuff at cars and buildings ) click the link below to watch the full video.

Despite high demand for travel this summer, many airlines have recently been cutting back on flights due to staffing shortages. But this isn’t the case for all airlines. Airplane A few airlines — such as Breeze Airways and Norse Atlantic Airways — have instead ADDED new flights to their schedules, including routes to Orlando. Now, another airline is adding a new route to the Orlando International Airport, which could make traveling to Disney World easier for some guests. Spirit Airlines has announced that they are adding a new non-stop route from the San Antonio Airport (SAT) to the Orlando International Airport (MCO). This new route starts on November 17th, 2022. ©Spirit Airlines That means that guests flying out of Texas now have another option for getting to Orlando. ©Spirit Airlines The change comes as some other airlines have canceled certain non-stop routes to Orlando, including Hawaiian Airlines. Other airlines are simply cutting back on flights this summer (which Delta Air Lines has done) or stopping service altogether to certain airports (like American Airlines has done). Some airlines are cutting back Remember that if you fly into the Orlando International Airport, you’ll need to make your own way to Disney World. Disney discontinued their Magical Express service, so there are no longer free rides from the airport to your Disney hotel. Instead, you can use one of the paid replacement services (Mears Connect or Sunshine Flyer), book a rideshare service (like Uber or Lyft), or call a taxi.

Always.” ©Disney A Deluxe Figurine Set will be apart of the new collection, as well, and will include nine figurines, such as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader, a Stormtrooper, and more. ©Disney And available exclusively on shopDisney, there are four new Funko Pop! figurines coming, as well. ©Disney But the fun doesn’t stop there!

It’s time for us to stroll down Main Street, U.S.A., and see what’s going on in Magic Kingdom. Cinderella Castle We’ve seen the summer crowds pick up, leaving meet-and-greet wait times as high as 110 minutes! But it’s not all bad, as the summer season has also brought a huge amount of merchandise, as well as some new menu additions. So, let’s take a trip to Magic Kingdom to see what’s new!

We’ve tried a ton of new snacks in Disney World recently…and we mean a TON. Magic Kingdom We got new treats for the summertime, for Father’s Day, for the 4th of July, and then a bunch of “just because” snacks for the 50th Anniversary. We’re constantly finding new things to eat in the parks, but when we checked the Mobile Order options at Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe recently, we spotted something we didn’t expect! If you’ve ever been to Pecos Bill, you know that they serve Tex-Mex…but in theme park fashion. Typically, you’ll find options like nachos and fajita platters, but now there’s a new entree — The Walking Taco! Ooh, that’s new! If you’re not familiar with walking tacos, they’re the type of food you’d have at a fair, easy to carry around and all mixed together in one convenient container. Basically, it’s a bag of Fritos Scoops, topped with ground beef, yellow rice, black beans, cheddar, jalapeno, tomato, and sour cream. We spotted them on Mobile Order through the My Disney Experience app for $10.99. It’s served separately. It’s a pretty simple option (although it has a LOT of ingredients), but we were BIG fans of this entree! It was served piping hot, so that even after we stopped to take a bunch of photos, it was still almost too hot to eat. And somehow, the Fritos stayed really crunchy throughout that whole process. The toppings are served in a cardboard tray on the side, so there’s a little bit of assembly required. What it looks like all mixed together. We dumped all our toppings into the bag, and by the time we were done, we had some thoughts on the ratios. First of all, we would love to have a LOT more cheese, and maybe a different kind besides cheddar. If we ordered it again, we’d probably purchase a side of queso to go with it and pour on top. (There’s a little plus-up hack for you!) In terms of the other toppings, there was a bit more rice than necessary, and we would’ve liked some more beef and beans to balance that out. The Walking Taco is definitely not a new concept (like we mentioned, it’s a popular food at fairgrounds and for Tex-Mex on-the-go), and we’re a little surprised that it took Disney this long to jump on the trend. It was super delicious! However, the flavors were SPOT ON. The beef was seasoned well and not too spicy, and we were honestly tempted to lick the bag when we were done. (Don’t worry, we didn’t! ) It’s a little bit too messy to truly be a “walking” taco, but kids would probably like the novelty of eating their meal out of a bag. It was a substantial portion, and we felt pretty full by the end. In summary, if you love Tex-Mex, this would be a great lunch or dinner option in Magic Kingdom! You may want to choose something else if you’re not a big nacho fan or you don’t feel like getting a little messy, but we’ll definitely be including this one in our lunch rotation in the future. We hope it sticks around! Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe Stay tuned to DFB for more food updates from the parks, including all the reviews from the upcoming EPCOT Food & Wine Festival.

Jasmine and Pocahontas Designer Dolls We’ve seen some pretty expensive collections from Disney in the past, both online and in the parks. From jewelry to clothing and accessories, sometimes it feels like there are collections of every type of Disney merchandise. One of those collections is the Disney Designer Dolls collection, which turns iconic Disney Princesses into designer dolls. And a new princess has just joined the princesses who came before her! The last Disney Designer Doll we saw was Snow White, and now it’s Rapunzel’s turn. The Disney Designer Collection Rapunzel Doll is finally here! ©Disney And you guys….she’s adorable! The purples and pinks in Rapunzel’s usual dress are still there, but this dress is definitely more extravagant. ©Disney Rapunzel’s long, wavy hair is up in a ponytail (new hair-do!), and she has a large floral headpiece. ©Disney Her dress also has some fun details, like tulle layers, glittering accents, a floral print (the flowers that are normally in her hair had to go somewhere, obviously), and much more! ©Disney Prepare your wallet though, because Rapunzel, like the other Disney Designer Dolls, will cost you $130.

It’s a busy month for Disney World! Hello, EPCOT! We’ve got several ongoing construction projects currently, a popular entertainment option is returning in full force, and a major festival kicks off soon! There’s a lot of news to keep up with, and we’re sharing all the updates straight from the parks. Today, let’s check out everything that’s new in EPCOT! EPCOT Food Updates Karamell Kuche Let’s start out in the Germany pavilion, where there’s a NEW whoopie pie at Karamell Kuche! This week, we tried the Werther’s Caramel Marshmallow Cream Whoopie Pie for $5.99. Caramel Marshmallow Cream Whoopie Pie We really enjoyed the chocolate cake cookies, and the marshmallow cream was nice and light. Ironically though, there wasn’t much caramel inside! Check out our full review of the new treat below. Click Here to See Our Full Review of the Cookie! EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival In other exciting food news, EPCOT is gearing up for the Food & Wine Festival! This week, we spotted menus out at several of the booths, which means we’ve finally got PRICES for many of the eats and drinks at this year’s event. India Booth Last we checked, we were still waiting on a few menus to arrive, but we’ll keep our eyes open for more updates. The festival kicks off on July 14th, and we’ll be there to try SO MUCH food and share our thoughts! Click Here to See Which Menus Are Out! EPCOT Construction Updates Mitsukoshi Department Store The biggest store in World Showcase is located over in the Japan pavilion, and if you’ve never stopped by, you definitely need to check it out! We almost always find interesting merchandise in Mitsukoshi, but this week we were intrigued by the construction happening in one corner of the store. Mitsukoshi Construction The area where the pick-a-pearl experience was located pre-pandemic has been blocked by black construction tarps. We’ll keep watching over here to see if any changes are made in the coming days and weeks. The pick-a-pearl experience hasn’t been available since the parks reopened, so we’re interested to see if it comes back. EPCOT Merchandise Updates Mission: SPACE Cargo Bay And finally, let’s talk new merchandise! Over at the gift shop by the exit of Mission: SPACE, we spotted some new Star Wars apparel. This black and gray Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader shirt is perfect for fans who just finished bingeing Obi-Wan Kenobi on Disney+. Get it now for $36.99. New ‘Star Wars’ shirt And if you’re from a chillier climate (probably not Florida ), you can buy the long-sleeved version instead. This design is $49.99. There’s a long-sleeved one too! And speaking of cold-weather clothes, there’s a black and brown Star Wars hoodie in here for $59.99. It’s hard to think about wearing hoodies when it’s 100 degrees outside, but if you want to buy it on your next trip, be our guest! Anyone need a hoodie in July? This store is a great stop for those searching for space-themed merchandise in EPCOT, so give it a glance on your next trip. (Even if you’re not interested in doing the ride and getting nauseous!) Souk-al-Magreb Over in the Morocco pavilion, Souk-al-Magreb is a great stop for Aladdin-themed merchandise. This week, we spotted two new shirts — a Princess Jasmine design… Jasmine Shirt …as well as one for her pet tiger, Rajah! You can get either of these for $36.99. You and your friend could coordinate! That’s everything new in EPCOT for now, but this week is going to be especially exciting with the kickoff of the Food & Wine Festival. On opening day, we’ll be reporting on all the new eats, the new merchandise collections, and the entertainment options coming to the park for a limited time. 2021 Food & Wine And in the long-term, we’ve got some exciting changes coming to EPCOT with the major construction happening in World Celebration and World Nature. We can’t wait to check out new spots like the CommuniCore Hall and Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana. Stay tuned to DFB for the latest updates!

DOUBLE-CHECK. 2021 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival The 2022 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival is upon us and we’re sharing all of our BEST tips to make sure you’re a festival PRO. We’ve shared the FULL LIST of menu items at every single food booth so you can study your must-haves, and even checked out all the Eat to the Beat Concerts coming to the park this year. And now we’re sharing our EPCOT Food & Wine Festival park bag essentials you won’t want to be without during your visit! We’ve shared tips on what to bring in your Disney World park bag before, but the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival is a whole different ball game. Fortunately, we’ve rounded up some of our can’t-do-without Food & Wine essentials that will turn you into a festival PRO! 1. Food Tray One of our top tips for making your way around the festival like a pro is to bring a small tray with you! That way, you can order multiple items from a booth (or multiple items from multiple booths!) without having to worry about how you’re going to carry it all. ©Amazon In the past we’ve seen Disney come out with a festival-specific tray, but you can usually get them for much cheaper online. Click Here to Buy a Tray for All Your Food & Wine Goodies 2. Reusable Water Bottle Depending on when you’re visiting the festival, chances are it’s going to be HOT. Disney does have free water available at most quick service locations, but we also recommend bringing a refillable water bottle to wash down all that delicious food. Gotta stay hydrated in that Florida heat! Along the same lines, we also recommend bringing along reusable utensils! Disney sells plenty of water bottles, like this SHINY gold Starbucks water bottle. Click Here to Buy the Gold Starbucks Water Bottle 3. Takeout Containers If your plan is to try every single item on your list all in one day, you might find yourself feeling full and have a hard time finishing everything you get! We like to toss some takeout or food storage containers in our park bag for those times where we can’t finish something but don’t want to waste it. Eats from the Germany Booth in 2021 Trust us, there is A LOT of food at the festival. This way, you can be eating EPCOT Festival food leftovers at home! Click Here to Buy Takeout Containers 4. Wet Wipes Plenty of the foods and drinks you’re going to try have some sort of sticky element to them, and you might be just far enough from a bathroom to make it super inconvenient. If you’ve got wet wipes or disinfecting cloths in your bag, you can save yourself a step — at least for a little while! Clorox Wipes Plus, these are great for wiping down a messy table. Click Here to Buy Wet Wipes 5. Sunscreen Remember when we said it gets HOT during the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival? Well, it can also be very SUNNY. The last thing you want on your Disney World dining marathon is to wind up with a sunburn — so be sure you toss some sunscreen in your park bag and REAPPLY it! Sunscreen is your friend! Disney does sell sunscreen in the parks, but you’ll find yourself paying a pretty penny for it. Click Here to Buy Sunscreen 6. Stain Remover If you’re going to be eating food and drinking (probably brightly colored) drinks all day long, chances are you might spill a time or two. Toss some stain removing sticks like Tide To Go in your bag and don’t even worry about it! ©Amazon Though, if you ask us, stains are just the mark of a good time at the Food & Wine Festival. Click Here to Buy Tide To Go Pens 7. Hydration Multiplier We’ve already talked about the importance of drinking water, and if you’re going to be drinking alcohol at the festival it might be a good idea to toss some hydration multiplier packs in your bag like Liquid I.V. ©Amazon They come in several different flavors and can come in handy if you’re feeling a little…Jack Sparrow-like. Click Here to Buy Liquid I.V. 8. Neck Fan Can we talk enough about how hot important it is to try and stay cool during the festival?! Not only will water be your best friend, but bladeless neck fans are all the rage for beating the heat! ©Amazon Most are battery powered and rechargeable too. Click Here to Buy a Neck Fan 9. Gift Cards If you’re trying to set a spending budget for your Food & Wine visit, one of our best tips for doing so is by using Disney Gift Cards! You can prepay whatever amount you want on the card and then use them at all the festival booths. Disney Gift Cards Plus, Disney usually comes out with festival-specific gift cards and ones you can wear on your wrist for easy access! Click Here to Buy a Disney Gift Card 10. DFB Festival Guide And last, but certainly not least — if you REALLY want to be an EPCOT Food & Wine Festival pro, then you’re going to want to bring the 2022 DFB Festival Guide along with you!
