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! The Sweetheart Sundae is a new treat that can be found at Intermission Food Court (at Disney’s All-Star Music Resort) and World Premiere Food Court (at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort). The Intermission Food Court This sundae is made with a Mickey and Minnie Red Velvet Waffle and Strawberry and Chocolate Swirl Ice Cream. It’s topped with Hot Fudge and Strawberry Sauce and a dollop of Whipped Cream! It doesn’t get much more classic than strawberries and chocolate, so this sounds like a dream come true. Mickey AND Minnie waffles…yes, please! The red velvet waffles were fresh, warm, and delicious — even on their own! We adored the idea of having both a Mickey and a Minnie waffle for Valentine’s Day. In terms of the ice cream, the chocolate strawberry soft-serve was a classic flavor combination that was further enhanced by the hot fudge. To top it all off, the whipped cream and heart sprinkles finished the dessert perfectly. Simple, yet so good! This is so festive! The big problem with ice cream and the Florida sun? The Sweetheart Sundae will melt FAST; especially with the added heat from the fresh waffles and hot fudge. Grab those Instagram pictures quickly, then indulge. It doesn’t need to be complicated to taste good If you like strawberries, this is the Valentine’s Day dessert for you! For those that don’t like the flavor of strawberry, try asking if they can substitute your dish for plain chocolate soft-serve instead! We loved the red velvet waffles so much that we wish they were available year-round — they are THAT good. Let’s dig in before it melts! If you want to give the Sweetheart Sundae a try, you can get one now through February 20th for $7.99. Keep following DFB for more reviews of the newest treats in Disney World!

It’s no secret that some people really, really, REALLY love to collect Disney memorabilia (hi, it’s us, we’re some of those “people”). Pins are some of the most commonly collected Disney items! Whether you always make sure to grab the latest pin, or you can’t go home without buying a new pair of Minnie Ears, there are so many different Disney things to collect. But — perhaps the ultimate Disney collectibles are those that might be a little dusty. That’s right, we’re talking vintage Disney memorabilia! Part of Disney history was recently uncovered somewhere you might not expect, and we’ve got all the details! According to BBC News, workers at a landfill in Wales were going about their duties when they spotted something that looked important — and they were right! A rare Mickey Mouse toy dating back to the 1930s was among the rubbish but the workers thankfully saved it! Experts were able to trace the toy back to the local Old Dean’s Toy Factory in a neighboring county. Turns out the toy was actually made at that nearby factory! That factory was the “first UK manufacturer to make Disney items in the 1930s.” How cool is that?! @BBCnews on Instagram This doll is now in good hands, as it was donated to a nearby museum, the Pontypool Museum. The curator of the museum told BBC that the staff is hoping to send Mickey over to a professional conservator to be cleaned up and “structurally supported” before going on display! Just how much might this little buddy be worth? Well, according to the BBC, “Other good condition versions of the doll have sold for around £300, but there is no indication of how many still exist.” That’s just over $400 in the U.S.! This Mickey is looking a little bit…healthier We love bringing you Disney news and especially love sharing rare discoveries like this!

Visiting Disney World with dietary restrictions can seem like a challenge, but there are a lot of options nowadays! Gluten-Free Chicken Breast Strips at Pinocchio Village Haus in Magic Kingdom At the bottom of most Disney restaurant menus, you can find allergy-friendly options for things like gluten and dairy. Plus, there are SO many more plant-based foods available now in Disney World that aren’t just salads. There was a whole booth with Impossible plant-based foods at last year’s Food and Wine Festival! And, if you’re a vegan or gluten free, we found an awesome dessert for you to check out in Disney World! Check out this vegan soft serve we found over at Fort Wilderness! It’s at the Carousel’s of Orlando food truck and is described as “Soft Serve Icery” that’s dairy-free, fat-free, gluten-free, and low calorie. The flavors available are Mango, Cotton Candy, Blue Raspberry, Cherry, and Lemon. A kids size is $5, a regular is $6, and a large is $7. Those colors! We had to try it out, obviously, so we started with the regular Mango for $6! It reminded us of the presentation of a Dole Whip with the flavor punch of gelato. But, the texture is like a combo of Dole Whip and sorbet! So unique! It’s frozen harder than Dole Whip and a bit icier, but the flavor is really exceptional and the fruit flavors are made with real fruit puree. If you like Dole Whip, this is kind of an upgrade, since it includes real fruit puree and Dole Whip does not! Did we find a HEALTHY dessert?! And, the Mango flavor is REALLY GOOD, you guys. We think most people will enjoy it (as long as you don’t have a huge hatred for mangoes!). The real mango flavor is delicious in this frozen treat and it has a consistency which is totally new to us as far as Disney treats go! This might be a new favorite Next, we tried the regular Cotton Candy with sprinkles. It tasted mostly like sugar with a little bit of vanilla to us. We were recommended to add the sprinkles by the person working at the food truck (for an extra 50 cents), which gave it almost a birthday cake flavor and made it even better. And, don’t worry — the sprinkles are also vegan and gluten-free! It’s very blue! This will be a great one for kids (or adults, we’re not judging!) who want something with a fun color and flavor! It’s not a health food really — it does include artificial flavoring a food dye — but it’s whimsical and delicious, especially if you have a lot of dietary restrictions and usually can’t eat treats that look like this. However, if you’re allergic to any artificial flavoring or food dyes, you should probably steer clear of this one and get one of the fruit flavors! Giving us all the circus vibes So, while this vegan treat is creamier than normal sorbet or Italian ice, we still think Dole Whip wins when it comes to creaminess in vegan desserts. If you don’t want something a bit more icy than Dole Whip, you might not enjoy this one. But, if you have dietary restrictions, are fine with the texture, and are looking for something with a punch of flavor that uses real fruit (or you want that fun Cotton Candy flavor), this is an awesome option to have! We still love you, Dole Whip! If you want to try these frozen treats out for yourself, head on over to Fort Wilderness! Right now, they’re at the resort every Monday and Tuesday each week.

Disney World has 4 Beacon of Magic shows to celebrate the 50th Anniversary. But did you know they recently added a 5th? Spaceship Earth Beacon of Magic The Beacons of Magic are short shows in the Disney World parks that transform the icons into glittery, iridescent beacons. OK so maybe this newest one isn’t an official Beacon of Magic, but it sure looks like one! It doesn’t transform a park icon or even a building. Nope — this one transforms an incredible DRESS. Disney Fairy Tale Weddings just premiered this year’s fashion show, which showcases several new dresses from their 2022 collection. We’ll show off all of the dresses in another post, but right now we need to talk about one very important dress in this collection. A very important dress! ©Disney For Disney World’s 50th Anniversary, Disney created a one-of-a-kind wedding dress that celebrates the landmark occasion. ©Disney This dress is made with 15,000 beads, 3,000 crystals, and — wait for it — 167 yards of fabric! Sparkly! ©Disney Some of the fabric is sparkle tulle, so this dress is VERY glittery. ©Disney During today’s fashion show, the 50th Anniversary Wedding Dress got its own Beacon of Magic moment. Usually, this honor is reserved for the park icons (the Cinderella Castle, Tower of Terror, Tree of Life, and Spaceship Earth), but today the 50th Anniversary dress became a beacon as well. Cinderella Castle Beacon of Magic When the 50th Anniversary Wedding Dress came out, there were lights and projections that added some extra sparkle to this already dazzling dress. Beacon of Magic ©Disney In fact, the projections reminded us of the moment when Cinderella’s rags are transformed into a gorgeous ball gown in the movie Cinderella (which was one of Walt Disney’s favorite pieces of animation!). ©Disney Instead of turning rags into a gown, the projections turned the wedding dress into an iridescent Beacon of Magic while the Cinderella Castle became its own beacon in the background! ©Disney Blue, pink, and gold lights were projected onto the dress, which matched the 50th Anniversary decorations throughout the Disney World parks. ©Disney We mentioned before that this dress is one-of-a-kind, and it turns out that you actually cannot buy it. It’s not for sale right now, so the only way to get your hands on this amazing dress is to win it in the World’s Most Magical Wedding Dress Contest. Learn How to Enter to Win This Dress Here We’re pretty sure the dress doesn’t come with the Beacons of Magic show, but if you do win the dress, we highly recommend creating your own Beacons of Magic moment during your wedding! How epic would it be to walk down the aisle with projections of iridescent lights and pixie dust on your dress?? If anyone knows how to make that happen, please share.

One of our favorite parks when it comes to food in Disney World is actually Disney’s Animal Kingdom. We know most people think of EPCOT when they think of great food in Disney World (and we don’t disagree!), but there are several underrated spots over in the wildest park. Animal Kingdom Whether you’re looking for cheeseburger bao buns, giant pretzels, or amazing bread and dips, Animal Kingdom has got you covered. We’re heading to one of those underrated restaurants today to check out the incredible theming and high-end food. So is this spot worth the high price tag that comes with it? Let’s find out. Did “incredible theming and high-end food” tip you off to where we’re going? If you guessed Tiffins, you’re right! This sit-down restaurant is covered in gorgeous art from around the globe, and it serves unique (and usually delicious) dishes. Tiffins The last few times we’ve visited Tiffins, we’ve been largely impressed with the food and drinks here. But sometimes the flavors don’t quite live up to the high prices on the menu. We’re back to check out more of the food and bring you an updated review of this restaurant so that you know if you should add it to your itinerary for your next Disney World trip. Atmosphere The name “Tiffins” comes from an Indian English word meaning a light lunchtime meal. It also can mean the containers that were traditionally used to carry that meal. If you look on top of the restaurant’s sign outside, you’ll see the inspiration for its name — tiffin containers! Tiffins sign We checked in with the hosts outside the restaurant and then received a text when it was time to come inside. You will need reservations to dine here since it’s a table service restaurant in the park. Host stand If you don’t have a reservation, you can head to the attached Nomad Lounge instead. This lounge serves some of the same food that can be found at Tiffins (including the amazing bread service), and it has a walk-up waitlist. (Pro tip: Get the churros at Nomad Lounge. Just trust us.) Nomad Lounge bar Inside Tiffins, there are three “galleries” or dining rooms. The Asia-themed room is called the Trek Gallery, the Africa-themed room is the Safari Gallery, and the room covered in animal art is the Grand Gallery. Dining room Take some time to look around at the art on the walls. The art was inspired by the drawings and field notes of Imagineers as they researched and designed the Animal Kingdom park. Amazing art! There are little cards by most of the pieces that tell you more about the artwork and its origins. The artwork in the Grand Gallery depicts animals that can all be found somewhere in Animal Kingdom. Lil rhino friend This restaurant is designed with the theme of exploration in mind, and our server encouraged us to get up and explore the galleries during our meal. Gorgeous We love the overall vibe of Tiffins. It is a signature dining location, so it’s up there on the fancy scale. But the theme of the restaurant also makes it a more relaxed and fun experience than some other fancy restaurants in Disney World. Dining room As far as seating goes, you’ll find standard tables and chairs here as well as booths. Tables and booths Our only complaint about the atmosphere is that it’s a little bit dark inside. The low lighting is likely to put a spotlight (literally) on all the art in the dining rooms. More art Now let’s get to the really important stuff: the food! Eats Tiffins serves dishes inspired by flavors from around the world. It’s a mix of African, Asian, and Latin cuisine. Menu We received a QR code menu. QR code menu You can also request a paper menu if you’d prefer that. Paper menu The options at Tiffins begin with appetizers, such as the famous Tiffins Signature Bread Service. ©Disney The main course includes entrées like Butter Chicken, Shrimp & Grits, and Whole-fried Sustainable Fish. ©Disney You can also choose from the enhancements and desserts menus. We didn’t order an enhancement this time, but in the past, we’ve really enjoyed the Gobi Manchurian. (Note that both the Gobi Manchurian and Lobster Mac & Cheese are often available at Nomad Lounge as well. Ask your server if they’re available during your visit.) ©Disney Kids can choose from the appetizers menu and then create their own meal by selecting an entrée… ©Disney …and two sides. The kids’ meals include some less exotic options (like tacos and grilled chicken) in case your little ones aren’t super adventurous eaters. ©Disney As far as drinks go, there are a LOT of options for coffee and loose-leaf teas… ©Disney …as well as non-alcoholic mocktails… ©Disney …specialty cocktails… ©Disney …hot coffee cocktails… ©Disney …a few beers… ©Disney …and a selection of wines by the glass. ©Disney The wines — like the flavors of food here — are from around the globe. You’ll find wine options from places in Africa, South America, and more. Drinks We started off with the Jenn’s Tattoo cocktail for $13. Jenn’s Tattoo This drink is made with Ketel One Vodka, Watermelon, Hibiscus, and Lime Juice. It’s garnished with a slice of lime and a purple flower. Tasty! We thought the watermelon and hibiscus were the most prevalent flavors here, and there was really just a hint of lime. Very fruity The drink was sweet and very refreshing, but the alcohol flavor wasn’t very strong. If you like sweet, fruity drinks, we think you’ll really enjoy this one! But if you prefer beer or strong cocktails, you may want to try a different option. Food For our appetizers, we chose the Honey-Chili Glazed Pork Belly for $15 and the Tiffins Signature Bread Service for $12. If you don’t order the bread service, your server will bring you a small piece of bread with a pomegranate dipping sauce. But since we got the service, we didn’t get that bread. Honey-glazed pork belly The pork belly is served with Chorizo and Midnight Moon Cheese Biscuit, along with a Quail Egg and Tasso Gravy. There are 3 large pieces of pork belly in this appetizer, so it would be plenty to share with a few people. Plenty to share We thought the pork was excellent. It was nice and tender and full of flavor. Nice and tender The sauce was very salty, but it went well with the pork. The biscuit was tasty as well. It was very dense, and we had a bit of a hard time cutting into it. The mild cheese flavor was good, but we might have preferred a stronger or sharper cheese flavor. Cheese biscuit We didn’t love the quail egg on the side. It was served cold, which didn’t seem to go with the rest of this dish. And it basically just tasted like a normal egg to us. The egg was not our favorite The bread service — as usual — was excellent. Bread service The bread is a crispy naan (like a tortilla chip)… Crispy naan …a pita bread (with an earthy taste)… Pita bread …and a traditional bread that tasted like rye or pumpernickel to us. Traditional bread The sauces are Red Pepper Hummus, Spicy Coriander Yogurt, and Ginger-Pear Chutney. Our favorite was probably the Spicy Coriander Yogurt (the creamy green-ish one). It tasted very fresh, and we thought it went well with the traditional bread. We loved the coriander yogurt! The red pepper hummus was almost like a creamy salsa, and the ginger pear chutney was very sweet. We didn’t really feel like the chutney paired well with the savory bread, so that one was our least favorite. More dips In general, we think most people would enjoy at least parts of these dishes. The pork belly was divine, and the coriander dip with the bread service was very delicious. You probably need to be a little bit adventurous with your taste to enjoy them, but the flavors are really nice! Delicious! For our entrée, we chose the Tamarind Braised Short Rib for $48. This is a Short Rib with Parsnip-Potato Purée, Cauliflower, Cipollini Onion, and Medjool Date Vinaigrette. Tamarind-braised short rib This short rib was PACKED with flavor! It was also super tender and rich. The sauce paired with it was a little bit sweet, and it went very well with the savory meat and potatoes. So tender The veggies that came with the meat were just okay. We would have liked a little bit more seasoning on them to make them more exciting. There wasn’t really anything special about them, but it was nice to have the fresh vegetables paired with the heavier meat. Veggies were OK The parsnip-potato purée was one of the highlights of this dish for us. It was delicious, and we thought it complimented the meat very well. We would’ve enjoyed more of it since there was just a little bit on the plate. Parsnip-potato puree The portion wasn’t huge, so we’re not sure that it really lives up to the $48 price tag. But it was definitely a filling dish, and we enjoyed it a lot. Short rib For dessert, we tried the 50th Celebration Chocolate Gateaux for $15. It’s made with Almond Praline, White Chocolate Cremeux, Ganache, and Chocolate-Amarula Sauce. (This dessert does contain an alcohol product.) 50th Celebration Chocolate Gateaux The gateaux sent a lot of different chocolate flavors at us from all different angles. The cake itself was a very rich chocolate flavor (although ours was a little bit dry), and it was surrounded by more chocolate mousse. VERY chocolatey The little chocolate pearls were nice because they added a bit of a crunch to the soft dessert. Here’s the inside There were crumbs served around the cake, which had a cayenne pepper dusting on them. If you’re a fan of spicy chocolate, we think you’ll enjoy these! If that’s not your favorite thing, it’s not too difficult to avoid the spicy crumbles. Chocolate gateaux The praline and white chocolate cream were delicious as well. The praline had a rich, nutty taste, which complemented the chocolate and added more depth of flavor to this dish. In general, this is a dessert for someone who loves — and we mean LOVES — chocolate. There are some other flavors involved, but the dominant ingredient is definitely rich chocolate. Great for chocolate lovers! At the end of our meal, we were given a souvenir card with a sketch by Disney Imagineer Joe Rohde on it. Sketch by Joe Rohde Joe Rohde was a huge contributor to the design of Tiffins and Animal Kingdom in general. Nosh or Not Travel the world at Tiffins if: You’re looking for a sit-down meal in Animal Kingdom to take a longer break in the air conditioning. As a signature meal, this will probably take at least an hour. You can enjoy the ambiance and some delicious food while you rest your feet from a day in the park. You want to learn more about Animal Kingdom in general, including the Imagineers who brought it to life and the inspiration behind its creation. The artwork and story behind this restaurant are unmatched. You’re an adventurous eater who doesn’t want another order of burgers and fries. Tiffins has some more basic dishes, but you can also find very unusual flavors here that you won’t see anywhere else in Disney World! Hike over to a different location if: You’re ballin’ on a budget. Tiffins is not a cheap meal. Entrées range in price from $30 to $65, and that’s not including drinks, appetizers, or dessert. There are plenty of other delicious meals in Animal Kingdom, like the combination bowls at Satu’li Canteen. Or you can visit Nomad Lounge to get the taste of Tiffins without the prices. You or your party are not adventurous eaters. If you really just want a good ol’ fashioned burger or some chicken tenders, you won’t find that here. Head to Restaurantosaurus or Flame Tree Barbecue to find more familiar dishes. You need a quick snack before rushing over to Flight of Passage for the third time today. Tiffins is a longer dining experience, so be prepared to spend some time here. Quick snacks can be found at Pongu Pongu (check out the lumpia or giant pretzels there) or Kusafiri (which also has more unique flavors than your average theme park food). Overall In general, we always enjoy our time at Tiffins. The food is very high quality, and the atmosphere is one of our favorites in all of Disney World. The service when we came was excellent as well. Our server was very attentive and helped us out with some recommendations. Tiffins dining room The food is fairly unique, although it wasn’t too far removed from familiar flavors. So if you want to be more adventurous without being scared of your food, we think this is a great option. There are some less-unique options for little kids, which we know can be important to younger palates. Lobster Mac and Cheese at Tiffins However, if you have a very limited taste, it might be tricky for you to find something here. In addition, the meal was fairly expensive (as most signature dining experiences are). If you’re not willing to spend $60+ per adult, you may want to consider a different restaurant in this park. Tiffins If you are going to dine here, we recommend allowing a good amount of time for the meal. The atmosphere is amazing, and you’ll want to take it all in while you eat. We loved our experience, and we’ll always take the chance to learn more about Animal Kingdom from the incredible displays.

Disney movies have had an interesting relationship with streaming over the past couple years. ©Disney/Marvel || Black Widow With the global pandemic shutting down theaters for a while, many movies that would’ve had big theatrical releases went straight to Disney+. Then, as things started opening up more, there were some films, like Black Widow, that premiered in both theaters and on Disney+, but for a premium price on the streaming service. Recently, we’ve seen more exclusive theatrical releases, like Spider-Man: No Way Home and West Side Story. But, we know you’re probably wondering when these films will be available on Disney+, and we have news about one popular movie! West Side Story will be coming to Disney+ on March 2nd! Steven Spielberg’s reimagining of the story first debuted in theaters in the United States on December 10th of last year, and after a significant theatrical run, will soon be available to Disney+ subscribers. West Side Story billboard The film will be available on March 2nd in the United States and in most international countries, then in Taiwan on March 9th and Japan on March 30th. And, the ABC one-hour special Something’s Coming: West Side Story — A Special Edition of 20/20 is available to stream on Disney+ now. ©Disney West Side Story has been nominated for 7 Academy Awards, including Best Picture, 11 Critics’ Choice Awards, and has won 3 Golden Globe awards, including Best Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy. The Academy Awards are being held on March 27th this year, which means you can watch the movie on Disney+ well before the ceremony! ©Disney West Side Story is a remake of the classic film of the same name from 1961, which was based off of West Side Story the Broadway musical. Disney has not mentioned anything about West Side Story requiring premium access on Disney+, like other films have, so it looks like the film will be included for Disney+ subscribers!

It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for… . Plaza Ice Cream Parlor in Magic Kingdom Say it with us — I scream, you scream, we all scream for…ICE CREAM. Today we’re bringing you our OFFICIAL ranking of every ice cream spot in Disney World. So grab a (REALLY BIG) spoon and get ready to DIG IN! Florida is well known for its intense heat, meaning ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and all other types of frozen treats offer delicious waves of relief. OooOooOo AaAaaAh There are a TON of ice cream stops available at Disney World, so we’re going to give YOU the full scoop and rank all the offerings from least to GREATEST. (Spoiler Alert: Even our least favorite is pretty darn tasty.) 24 — Gelateria Toscana Gelateria Toscana opened in EPCOT’s Italy pavilion in May of 2021. And the truth is, this charming new kiosk wouldn’t be so far down on our list if it wasn’t so PRICEY. La Gelateria Toscana The little ornate details of the stand itself are both simple and classy. This kiosk blends in with its surroundings so nicely that it already feels like it’s been around forever and a day. But, really, $11.75 for the Affogato Espresso Gelato is (at least in our opinion) WAY too much for that tiny portion we received. (Even if those few bites we had were quite tasty.) Espresso Affogato The best deal we’ve found at Gelateria Toscana so far is the Coppa Amicizia made with cookies and cream, strawberry, and vanilla gelato all topped with whipped cream for $11.75. This thing is BIG. The other menu items are also good, but the portions are way too small for the prices we paid (again, in our opinion). So maybe you skip on the pricey gelato and opt for some delicious pizza instead! Read about the best Disney World pizza places HERE! 23 — Haagen-Dazs Kiosk You’ll find ice cream aplenty all over Disney Springs, which is one of the only reasons why the Häagen–Dazs kiosk is also far down on our list. Häagen-Dazs It’s located on the West Side of Disney Springs. It has a very simple brick storefront that fits in well with the other surrounding stores. (Almost a little too well — you may walk right past it and not realize it’s there!) We have no big complaints here — it’s got a classy storefront and those delish Dazzler sundaes (like the EPIC Birthday Cake Dazzler you see below) for $9.99 (or $8.99 for a small). But there are so many ice cream options in Disney World, so this one just doesn’t stand out. Birthday Cake Dazzler Sundae The menu is pretty limited and offers standard options you could probably find back home. Perhaps you’re more in the mood for a Margarita? Learn about Dockside Margaritas at Disney Springs HERE! 22 — Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies There’s typically not much to Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies, located in Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland. Auntie serves up your standard soft-serve sundaes, cups, and floats. And the spot itself isn’t particularly memorable. You can’t even eat inside! So why don’t we have it at the very bottom of our list? Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies Because we love Auntie Gravity’s for its seasonal offerings! Take, for instance, the Pumpkin Spice Soft Serve Sundae typically available around Halloween. Pumpkin Spice Sundae And Auntie REALLY surprised us with the limited-time tribute-in-a-shake to the Carousel of Progress attraction: the “Just a Dream Away Shake!” Just a Dream Away Shake For a period of time, we even got to grab a 50th Anniversary treat here that was served IN a bathtub. The sundae is gone again! We find ourselves often peeking in at this location just to see if there’s anything new on the menu, and you should, too! Click here to see photos and reviews of the 50th Anniversary eats and treats in Disney World! 21 — BoardWalk Ice Cream This newer ice cream spot is directly inspired by ANOTHER Disney World ice cream location (which we’ll talk about later on ). BoardWalk Ice Cream BoardWalk Ice Cream is located at — can you guess? — Disney World’s BoardWalk Inn. We’ve enjoyed our experiences at BoardWalk Ice Cream well enough, but again, it’s mostly standard ice cream options. The Kids’ Mickey Mouse Sundae, priced at $4.99, comes with a scoop of your choice of ice cream, chocolate cookies (Oreos), and a cherry. (AND It looks like Mickey, so it does earn a few extra points for that!) Anyone Want Some Ice Cream? Our favorite offering at this location is easily the Thundering Surf Peanut Butter and Chocolate Sundae, which has chocolate and vanilla ice cream, peanut butter and chocolate chips, whipped cream, and a cherry for $7.99. Time for Some Ice Cream! (But that might just be because we’re HUGE peanut butter fans around here… .) Overall this spot is good but nothing that’ll knock your socks off. Click here to read our FULL review of BoardWalk Ice Cream! 20 — The Basket at Wine Bar George You won’t find any sprinkles or ice cream sundaes here. BUT you will be able to enjoy some frosty options that cater more to an adult palate. Have you ever been eating a DOLE Whip and thought, “Man, I wish this was spiked?” Well, The Basket at Wine Bar George over in Disney Springs has you covered. The Basket Wine Bar George tends to over overshadow its quick-service partner, but this little location nestled underneath the full Table Service restaurant’s patio seating is packed with big flavors! Wine Bar George at Disney Springs The Basket is more focused on creating custom picnics and charcuterie boards rather than ice cream treats, but it lands on our list because the DOLE Whip Frozcato is…*chef’s kiss.* DOLE Whip Froscato The recipe is simple: DOLE Whip Pineapple, Moscato, and Vodka. It’s a $13 wine slushy that’s fruity, refreshing, and a little bit on the tart side. Don’t miss it! Click here to see our full review of Wine Bar George! 19 — Storybook Treats Over in Magic Kingdom’s Fantasyland, Storybook Treats sells a few standard soft serve ice cream treats. Let’s get some DOLE Whip! But sometimes this quick service location comes up with an exclusive flavor or float themed around our favorite Disney characters. Decision time! Recently we’ve seen some Seven Dwarfs inspired goodies here, and more are on the way! It’s Doc! In the past, we’ve also seen delicious treats offered here, like the Peter Pan Float, which is made with DOLE Whip Lime soft serve, Sprite, and a chocolate feather. And the (currently offered) Snow White Cone (made with DOLE Whip lemon!) is one we could eat EVERY DAY. The fairest cone of them all? It’s definitely worth checking out — especially if you’re ready to try a new DOLE Whip flavor other than pineapple. Play *This or That: Fantasyland Edition* with us HERE! 18 — Aloha Isle THIS is the OG DOLE Whip spot in Magic Kingdom’s Adventureland! Alooooha! Aloha Isle is colorful, tropical, and an all-around nice little quick service stop for all your DOLE Whip needs. But this spot serves so much more than the classic Pineapple DOLE Whip and DOLE Whip Float. In the past, our favorite limited edition treat has been the Kakamora Float! It’s made with coconut soft serve on top of pineapple juice, non-alcoholic blue curacao syrup (because Disney *loves* blue curacao), and garnished with a chocolate cake pop (that’s in the adorable shape of a Kakamora from Disney’s animated film, Moana). Unfortunately, this beauty isn’t available at Aloha Isle at the moment, but it has disappeared and returned over the years so we’re hopeful that we’ll see it again! YUM Even though the Kakamora Float isn’t available, the Tropical Serenade IS available and it’s DELISH! This treat features Pineapple-Orange-Guava Juice (a.k.a. the famous POG juice), Coconut Soft-serve, and an Upside-down Pineapple Cake Pop. Hello Beautiful Tropical POG juice flavors + coconut soft serve = parade in the middle of a hot Florida day. Mmmm…Read about the DOLE Whip Swirl of our dreams HERE! 17 — Hollywood Scoops Picture this: You’re wrapping up your day in Hollywood Studios, walking down Sunset Boulevard, and you decide to end the night with a hand-scooped ice cream cone from Hollywood Scoops. Sounds pretty perfect, right? Hollywood Scoops Its cute vintage facade fits right in with the other shops lining Sunset Boulevard, and it has tasty hand-scooped ice cream for $5.99 a scoop. BUT! You can also order sundaes OR a not-so-little something called the Chocolate Peanut Butter Explosion Shake from this spot. The Explosion Shake features chocolate ice cream layered with peanut butter sauce topped with whipped cream, garnished with chocolate-peanut butter crumbles, and a chocolate-dipped peanut butter doughnut (!!!) for $9.49. MORE peanut butter!!! When fellow guests see you walking around with this decadent ice cream concoction, you may find that you’ll have your own paparazzi as inquiring minds ask where you got this! What a way to wrap up a Hollywood Studios day, right? Click here to see our FULL review of the explosion shake! 16 — Dinosaur Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction If you’re still in Hollywood Studios yearning for something cool, then look no further than Dinosaur Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction on Echo Lake. Good to see ya, Gertie! You can’t miss it! The giant dinosaur near the front of the park? Yep, that’s our ole pal, Gertie. She’s been serving up classic soft serve treats and Mickey Ice Cream Bars for a while. And we love her for it. Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction But we love her MORE for the unique history she brings to Disney’s Hollywood Studios along with those ice cream treats! Vanilla and Chocolate Swirl Take it from us, ice cream tastes better when it is served from a giant dinosaur! This place can be closed sometimes so just be sure to check and see if it’s available during your trip. Click Here to Read All About the Story Behind Dinosaur Gertie’s! 15 — Milk Stand No, it’s not quite ice cream, but it’s definitely cool, creamy, refreshing, and maybe it’s Batuu’s answer to ice cream? Does it belong in this ranking? Well, we felt the Force was strong enough with it to list it here. Yep, it’s the Milk Stand in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. Galaxy’s Edge Milk Stand And no stop in Black Spire Outpost is complete without a visit. Milk Stand Offerings Are you Team Blue Milk or Team Green Milk? Make your choice for $8.49 each, or add a boozy compliment to yours for a total of $15. Green and Blue Milk Coolers Love it or not, it’s a rite of passage to try the colorful drinks that Luke Skywalker made famous. And don’t forget to take an iconic picture with it. Because does it even count if you don’t have a photo? Click Here to See the HACK That Might Change Your Mind About Blue Milk! 14 — Happy Landings/ I.C. Expeditions/Snack Shack We’re grouping the ice cream stops from Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach together since Happy Landings and I.C. Expeditions both sell very similar options, including that MASSIVE Sand Pail Sundae. Happy Landings This signature sundae has chocolate and vanilla soft-serve ice cream, waffle pieces, sprinkles, cookie pieces, hot fudge, caramel sauce, whipped cream, and a cherry on top — all served in a GIANT bucket with a shovel for $13.99! I.C. Expeditions Ice cream AND a beach toy!? Sounds like a win to us! Sure, the shareable concoction gets a little soupy toward the end, but you gotta give it points for the massive quantity and added souvenir. Aside from the Sand Pail Sundae, both locations serve tasty hot fudge brownie sundaes, ice cream in waffle cones, and some other limited items. Yup, It Definitely Has That “Wow” Factor And we have to give a VERY special shout out to Snack Shack at Typhoon Lagoon. With Typhoon Lagoon’s reopening we got some EPIC new and returning creations at this spot. You can opt to create your own unique DOLE Whip concoction (with or without alcohol)… YUM …go for the returning DFB favorite, the Hei Hei Cone… We love Hei Hei and we love this cone! …try the beautiful Motunui Island Twist… Montunui Island Twist …or even try something with a bit more of a kick with the Habanero Lime Galley Shack Swirl! Habanero Lime Galley Shack Swirl If you’re at Typhoon Lagoon and looking for a fun DOLE Whip treat, THIS is the place to go. Note that currently Blizzard Beach is closed, but Typhoon Lagoon is open. Click Here to Learn More About Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park! 13 — Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill See? We TOLD you there were a lot of Disney Springs’ ice cream offerings! Wolfgang Puck Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill has both dine-in and grab-and-go offerings. Most notably, they’ve got an awesome variety of gelato creations at the outdoor counter that are so different from other gelato combos we’ve tried. Outdoor Gelato Bar For example, we’ve tried the Salted Caramel Banana Pudding and it was FANTASTIC. It’s made with banana pudding, banana chunks, vanilla wafers, and a scoop of salted caramel gelato. The pudding was smooth and rich and really went well with that gelato! YASSSS And we have to give a big nod to Mortimer’s Key Lime Sorbet Margarita made just for the grown-ups out there. CHEERS! Key Lime Sorbet Margarita Menu offerings can change so be sure to check and see what frozen goodies are available during your visit! Note that lately we haven’t seen this to-go spot open during some of our trips, so be sure to check and see if it’s available during your trip. Click here to see more about Wolfgang Puck! 12 — Vivoli il Gelato If Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill doesn’t satisfy your gelato needs over in Disney Springs, perhaps Vivoli il Gelato will! Vivoli il Gelato This classy gelato quick-service stop in The Landing is totally there for you for when you’re out shopping and need a quick pick-me-up. The atmosphere is homey, decorated with dozens of black-and-white photographs of the Vivoli family. Inside Vivoli Gelateria | Photo from 2015 And the gelato concoctions can get very unique here! Some favorites of ours include the Bombolatos (gelato sandwiched inside a warm Italian donut) which are generally around $10 (but have ranged in price before depending on what you got). Nutella Tiramisu Bombolato We also love the Gelato Waffles (which are exactly that — gelato on a waffle) that are generally around $12. Waffle Sliders from Vivoli il Gelato This spot often also has special offerings that appear for limited times throughout the year, so you’ll want to look for those! Green Velvet Cake Shake! Some of the offerings can be a bit on the pricey side, but the quality is there and keeps us coming back for more. Click here to see one of our latest reviews of some items at Vivoli il Gelato! 11 — Marketplace Snacks We’ve gotta hand it to Disney Spring’s Marketplace Snacks — they’ve completely reinvented the way we eat our DOLE Whip! Marketplace Snacks Along with your standard DOLE Whip or DOLE Whip float, the Marketplace also has DOLE Whip Nachos for $8.99. This was initially declared to be a one-day-only treat, but its popularity has helped it stick around longer than that. And we’re happy to see it! The DOLE Whip Nachos are loaded with waffle cone chips topped with DOLE Whip, mango boba pearls, fresh pineapple, strawberry sauce, whipped cream, and rainbow sprinkles. Such fun flavors in every bite! Dole Whip Nachos You’ve got your sweet, your boba-bursts, your crunchy waffle chips…so unique and so yummy! Click here to see our review of the DOLE Whip Pina Colada Slushy Float from Marketplace Snacks! 10 — Dino-Bite Snacks Who knew a little nook in DinoLand U.S.A. in Animal Kingdom would make its way to this list? WE DID. Because we really adore Dino-Bite Snacks! Come get your ice cream! We love its quirky retro facade and its small selection of sundaes, floats, and ice cream scoops. But what we REALLY love are those ice cream cookie sandwiches for $6.99. Freshly baked cookies and creamy vanilla ice cream… . Can’t go wrong there! Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches But DinoBites really stands out thanks to the Seasonal Ice Cream Sandwiches that go well beyond the norm, like the stunner that is the Peppermint Ice Cream Sandwich which sometimes pops up for the holiday season! Double-Chocolate Peppermint Ice Cream Sandwich We’ve also absolutely LOVED the strawberry shortcake ice cream sandwich which has popped up around Valentine’s Day in the past. Strawberry Shortcake Ice Cream Sandwich But the seasonal offerings don’t stop with ice cream sandwiches. One of the most recent seasonal treats we tried at Dino-Bite Snacks was the Baby Tuk Tuk Ice Cream Sundae for $6.99 — with chai spiced caramel cake, chai caramel sauce, vanilla ice cream, green tea cake crumbs, salted caramel crispy pearls, and an edible image of Baby Tuk Tuk. We can’t eat this li’l guy! He’s too cute! It was a unique experience with a rather *interesting* flavor profile that’s def not for everyone, but we loved how adventurous it was! It just goes to show how unique Dino-Bite Snacks can be! Click HERE to learn ALL of the Dinoland U.S.A. secrets! 9 — Anandapur Ice Cream Truck Before we start talking about the soft-serve ice cream offered at Anandapur Ice Cream Truck in Animal Kingdom’s Asia, can we talk about that DESIGN?? The Anandapur Ice Cream Truck! Honestly, out of all the locations on this list, Anandapur is by far the most artistic. Just LOOK at it! But we can’t judge a book by its cover, right? Actually, this time we can. Gorgeous! The usual vanilla and chocolate soft-serve flavors at Anandapur are interspersed with especially fun seasonal treats like that Mighty-Mist Soft-Serve Ice Cream for $5.49. The Mighty-Mist was an Insta-worthy mix of strawberry and vanilla soft-serve in a blue-tinted white chocolate waffle cone. That blue ice cream looks surprisingly delicious… Head over right now and you might just find the Kite Tails Sundae, which is just as fun! This one is made of strawberry and lemon-flavored soft-serve swirled together and topped with a white chocolate medallion. KiteTails Sundae We really enjoyed this treat and loved the balance of sweet and tart. While the Anandapur Ice Cream Truck’s traditional menu can be very standard, it’s those specials you’ll want to keep a special eye out for! Click here to see our rankings of the lands in Animal Kingdom by their snacks! 8 — Pineapple Lanai Pineapple Lanai is a quick service location right outside the Great Ceremonial House (AKA: the center hub) of Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. We love you, Pineapple Lanai! Let’s reminisce on a couple of the wonderful exclusive offerings Pineapple Lanai over at Polynesian Resort has provided us over the years… . Who could forget the Heart of Te Fiti Cone with lime Dole Whip, a green cone, and a lovely decorative flower? She’s a beaut! Or that Cinderella 70th Anniversary Ice Cream with vanilla ice cream, crispy pearls, a white chocolate clock, and edible GLITTER!!! Good times… . Cinderella 70th Anniversary Ice Cream! There’s just something about eating a DOLE Whip at the Polynesian that makes it all the more enjoyable. He’s so cute! And we especially love that there’s a constant stream of limited edition Dole Whip flavors & creations that pop up here! It’s very green! Who knows what they might come up with next? 7 — Tamu Tamu Refreshments In Animal Kingdom’s Africa, you’ll find a little snack shop that has a tucked-away courtyard where you can enjoy your treat of choice. Tamu Tamu Refreshments at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Tamu Tamu Refreshments has specialty DOLE Whip floats (that can be spiked with coconut rum)! Our must-have at this location is the Simba Sunset made with pineapple DOLE Whip and topped with watermelon, strawberry, and coconut-flavored syrup for $5.99. So. Much. Dole Whip. When we’ve ordered a Simba Sunset at Tamu Tamu in the past, we’ve received it in the same-sized cup typically used for a float — meaning you get more DOLE Whip at a price that’d normally get you a smaller DOLE Whip serving at other locations around Disney World! Ready to work out AND watch The Lion King at the same time? Then click HERE! 6 — Ghirardelli Soda Fountain and Chocolate Shop We’d rank Ghirardelli Soda Fountain and Chocolate Shop in Disney Springs high up on our list just for the scents alone. As soon as you start walking past the World of Disney gift shop, the sweet and warm aromas of Ghirardelli will waft past your nose, enticing you to come on in. I can smell this picture. One absolute favorite is the Crissy Field Cookie Bits Sundae: vanilla and cookies-and-cream ice cream, a TON of homemade hot fudge, and big, soft, buttery, half-baked chocolate chip cookies crumbled up and topping the entire thing. Oh, and some whipped cream. Crissy Field Cookie Bits Sundae It’s beyond worth the stop when it’s available! Word of advice — be prepared for a bit of a wait at this ice cream spot. You’re not the only guest that’s going to be enticed by the smell of fresh-made waffle cones… . You can see the NEW take on another Ghirardelli favorite HERE! 5 — Sunshine Tree Terrace We’ve got another Adventureland spot on the list! Hi, Orange Bird! Sunshine Tree Terrace has a nice variety of soft-serve, DOLE Whip, and float options. (And Potstickers… because, why not??) Sunshine Tree Terrace is home to none other than the unique-to-Magic-Kingdom Citrus Swirl. But be warned: this beauty hasn’t been available there for a while! We’re hoping it’ll make a delicious return soon. Citrus Swirl Other fun finds include the I Lava You Float for $6.99, which was gone for a while, but is now BACK and we’re HYPED to see it! It features Fanta strawberry soda and passion fruit flavors with orange DOLE Whip and popping candy. I Lava You Float But if you don’t want a Fanta strawberry soda, there are plenty of other soda float options to choose from — such as root beer, Coke, Sprite, and even Powerade! We were definitely surprised by the Powerade Mountain Berry Blast Float — Find out more about it HERE! 4 — The Fountain If you haven’t hit up Disney World’s Swan and Dolphin Resorts to dine at The Fountain, you’re missing out BIG TIME. The Fountain The Fountain offers a great variety of shakes and sundaes from your classic vanilla… Vanilla Milkshake … to the Grasshopper with Minty Chip Ice Cream, Bailey’s, Creme de Cocoa, Whipped Cream, Creme de Menthe, and a grasshopper cookie on top! Grasshopper Shake at The Fountain in the Disney World Dolphin How about sundaes? Yep, they’ve got plenty of those, too! The Caramel Apple Sundae is an absolute star. Caramel Apple Sundae You know how we love Beaches and Cream around here (yep, we haven’t forgotten it on our list!), but The Fountain is a more-than-solid option all its own, and a quite a hidden gem! Learn about the other Swan and Dolphin Restaurants HERE! 3 — Plaza Ice Cream Parlor After its extended closure, we were so excited to see the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor on Magic Kingdom’s Main Street, U.S.A. back in full swing! Plaza Ice Cream Parlor If you’ve been following DFB for a while now, you know that an old favorite of ours is the Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich WITH peanut butter drizzle. Note that the peanut butter sauce no longer appears on the menu, but some of our team have been able to ask Cast Members there for some and they’ve been able to get it. So it never hurts to ask! Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich with Peanut Butter at Plaza Ice Cream Parlor Or you can get a traditional ice cream cookie sandwich with toppings like hot fudge or caramel. What a Delicious Combo So. Much. Goodness. Plus, the outdoor seating around the Plaza gives you the most epic view of all — a view of Cinderella Castle. At last — Plaza Ice Cream Parlor is OPEN again. See our review HERE! 2 — L’Artisan des Glaces EPCOT’s France pavilion impresses us constantly with its selection of treats, and L’Artisan des Glaces is no exception. L’Artisan des Glaces First off, it’s got a beautiful storefront and atmosphere. (Who wouldn’t want to dine on a sweet treat in the middle of a street bustling with French architecture and music?) L’Artisan des Glaces menu But on top of THAT, it’s got a great selection of unique house-made ice creams and sorbets. Croque Glaces in Progress The Croque Glace is just one of the stars here: it’s a scoop of ice cream with your choice of sauce in a homemade brioche, pressed warm. The brioche would’ve been great on its own. The ice cream is great on its own, too. But you put them together and BAM. Perfection. And speaking of perfection… L’Artisan des Glaces Croque Glaces …in case you need even more reason to try L’Artisan des Glaces yourself, you can also get an Ice Cream Martini. Pina Colada Ice Cream Martini with Rum Plus this spot often serves up seasonal creations that’ll make you DROOL. Holiday Macaron Basically it’s an ice cream lover’s paradise any time of year! Click here to see how to make your own Mickey Mouse ice cream in EPCOT! 1 — Beaches and Cream Soda Shop But now, it’s time for the WINNER. Our NUMBER ONE ice cream stop in Disney World is… Beaches and Cream Soda Shop at Disney’s Beach Club Resort! Beaches and Cream This is a CLASSIC ice cream stop for Disney guests who are staying on (or off) the Beach Club property. This table service restaurant was remodeled and expanded in 2019 to accommodate even more guests (which is good because this place can be HOPPIN’). Beaches and Cream The No Way Jose Sundae has long been one of our favorite sundaes on Disney property. It is made with chocolate and vanilla ice cream, peanut butter(!!), hot fudge, peanut butter and chocolate morsels, whipped cream, and (of course!) a cherry on top. No Way Jose at Beaches and Cream It’s a hefty sundae, for sure, but it’s not NEARLY as big as the famous Kitchen Sink that serves FOUR people for $35! The classic Kitchen Sink has scoops of vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, cookies and cream, and mint chocolate chip ice cream; then, it’s smothered in basically every topping you can get at Beaches and Cream. The Kitchen Sink Sundaes at Disney’s Beach Club Resort It’s definitely a crowd-pleaser and a WHOLE bunch of fun. Oh! AND you can get it in a Chocolate Lovers or Neapolitan version, if your group prefers! (Yep, you’ll need the whole crew to tackle it!) DIG IN to a Kitchen Sink — click here to learn more! Are you craving ice cream yet? Hopefully, this list helped make up your mind about which place — or places! — to choose the next time you’re in Disney World and are craving a sweet, cold, and refreshing treat. Will we be adding ANOTHER entry to this list soon? Click HERE to find out more about a NEW ice cream shop coming to Disney World SOON!

You can find Stitch hiding in several places inside Disney World, including on the famous Purple Wall in Magic Kingdom‘s Tomorrowland. Stitch! One time we bet you’re NOT expecting to see him is during your next fast-food run. But you should probably watch out because — for a limited time — he might be found hanging out with your chicken nuggs and fries! Stitch took over a lot of Disney movies recently with the Stitch Crashes Disney merchandise collections, and now he’s moved on to taking over McDonald’s Happy Meals! Stitch at McDonald’s! From now until March 7th, 2022, you can get a Stitch-themed Happy Meal, which comes with a cute little Stitch plush. There are several different plush options, including Stitch playing the ukelele, surfing, doing the Hula, and more. ©McDonald’s Of course, we had to check out these new toys (and no, this isn’t just an excuse to get chicken nuggets for our lunch…). We stopped by the McDonald’s location on Disney World property to see the new toys! Stitch plush With our order, we got a new Stitch plush! Ours was the Ukelele-playing Stitch. Isn’t he cute?? Stitch plush keychain He has a little loop on top of his head, so you can attach him to a keychain if you want. So cute! This just goes to show that you never know where you’ll find Stitch next!

Things with Disney+ could be changing. ©Disney You’ve probably streamed a whole bunch of movies, tv shows, documentaries, and more on the service, and more new things are on the way. But what if you could watch something LIVE on Disney+? Live sports perhaps? A livestream of a special event? Well, Disney tested that out today in a smaller way and it could mark a big change for the future. As Yahoo shared, Disney+ ran its FIRST ever test of a livestream recently in the U.S. The livestream was specifically for the 94th Oscar nominations, and was hosted by Leslie Jordan and Tracee Ellis Ross. The event was livestreamed on Disney+ in addition to Hulu, ABC News Live, and some other platforms. Because it was streamed on a few different platforms at the same time, Yahoo notes that this helped to “lessen the burden on Disney+” since not all viewers were turning to one source. ©Disney Still, Yahoo notes that this could hint at “future changes” coming for the streaming service. Disney has not yet shared what specific plans it might have for livestreaming things on Disney+ in the future, but it has noted that livestreaming is something the company wants to explore. According to a Disney spokesperson who spoke to TechCrunch, Disney was “pleased with the results [of the livestreaming test on Disney+] and will continue to test as part of [their] ongoing and iterative approach to deliver the best user experiences to consumers.” Disney+ Subscription Gift Card According to Yahoo, there are “some hints that the company could be considering integrating live sports into Disney+ in the U.S.” One thing they shared is that a link had been added to the DisneyPlus.com sitemap that includes text for “ESPN” “sport-event.” Disney+ Hotstar also already offers live sports in India, so Disney could take what they’ve learned from that and bring it to the U.S. But Disney’s livestreaming doesn’t just have be limited to sports. Yahoo shares that fan events (like the D23 Expo) and more could all be streamed on the service potentially. This could also serve to encourage more individuals to subscribe to the service. Continued subscriber growth is key if Disney wants to hit its big subscriber goals. Disney+ Day Cavalcade There are a lot of possibilities that could come from this livestreaming test and continued testing of that service. We’ll definitely be interested to see how Disney works on this feature in the future and what it might be utilized for in the upcoming months/years. Stay tuned for all the latest updates!

Do you know where you can get astronaut ice cream, tie-dye sherpa Minnie ears, and a $6,000 Minnie Mouse painting all in one place? EPCOT If you guessed EPCOT, you’re correct! This Disney World park has all kinds of unique attractions, restaurants, and merchandise. Today, we’re exploring the whole park to see what’s new since the last time we visited! Come along with us to check out all the latest souvenirs, snacks, and more. Let’s start out with our favorite updates — the ones about food! EPCOT Food Updates We spoke to a Cast Member at Karamell-Küche in the Germany pavilion of World Showcase recently, and they told us that the Gingerbread Caramel Cookie Sandwich was officially gone from the location. Gingerbread Cookie Sandwich BUT on a more recent trip, we spotted the treat back in the display case! *drool* This dessert is usually only available during the holiday season, so it’s likely going to disappear soon. Head into Karamell-Küche ASAP if you want one more before it’s gone! Karamell-Küche All to Ourselves! We also spotted some unusual snacks at the House of Good Fortune shop in the China pavilion. These are the Chocolate Churro flavored Turtle Chips, which you can try for $8.95. Turtle Chips Back in World Discovery, we saw that the Astronaut Ice Cream Sandwiches (found in the Mission: Space gift shop) now come in a couple of different packages for the same flavors. Normally there are lots of options! When we were there, only the orange and pink packages were in stock, and they were both vanilla ice cream sandwiches. Click here to see our review of 2 NEW snacks in EPCOT! EPCOT Merchandise Updates Creations Shop At the Creations Shop, we spotted a new pair of Boxers with a Pluto pattern on them! These have colorful frames with different expressions of the cute pup. You can get them for $36.99. Pluto Boxers We also checked on the 2022 Mickey Ear Headbands, and we saw that they’re now available for $22 (very clever, Disney!). 2022 Ears There was a new set of Mickey pins, which included 6 different Mickeys in various jewel-tone colors. This set is $17.99. New Mickey pins And those amazing Tie-Dye Sherpa Minnie Ears are available at Creations Shop as well! These cost $29.99, and we’ve also seen them at the Emporium in Magic Kingdom. Sherpa Minnie Ears If you LOVE Spaceship Earth, there’s a new translucent EPCOT shirt available for $79.99. The pocket and collar have designs that look just like EPCOT’s icon. EPCOT shirt There was also a couple of new souvenirs for EPCOT’s Festival of the Arts, which is going on now. You can get a character magnet for $14.99… Magnet …or a Festival of the Arts ornament (featuring Figment — who else?). Ornament The ornament costs $19.99. Disney Traders At Disney Traders, there was a new denim jacket featuring Minnie Mouse. Minnie Denim Jacket It has a cute Minnie pin and some patches on the front and a big decal of Minnie on the back. Here’s the back It’s available in youth sizes for $49.99. Pin Traders For all those social media gurus out there, we found the PERFECT set of patches. They’re reaction patches, with images of Mickey, the Cinderella Castle, a Minnie bow, and more. Social Media Patches You can get this set for $9.99. Test Track SIMporium At the Test Track SIMporium (the attraction’s gift shop), there were 4 new sets of toys inspired by the movie Cars! You could get Lightning McQueen with Brick Yardley… McQueen and Yardley …Jackson Storm with Tim Treadless… Storm and Treadless …Cam Spinner with Sheldon Shifter… Spinner and Shifter …or Lightning McQueen with Ralph Carlow. McQueen and Carlow Each set costs $16.99. Art of Disney Looking to spend some big bucks on amazing Disney art? We found a Minnie Mouse painting in a mid-century modern frame for $6,000 at Art of Disney. Minnie art The painting was done by artist David McBiff. Mitsukoshi Inside Mitsukoshi (the gift shop in the Japan pavilion), we spotted a gorgeous Hello Kitty Tokidoki bag. It’s made with an iridescent material (like lots of 50th Anniversary decorations around the parks) with images of Hello Kitty and her friends. You can get this bag for $68. Hello Kitty Bag Mitsukoshi also had a special Valentine’s Day display with little candies and small stuffed animals. Valentine’s Day Display So you can drop in here to find the perfect gift for your special someone! Northwest Mercantile And at the Canada pavilion in World Showcase, we spotted some new Cabin Coasters. They have cute sayings on them like “The cabin is my happy place.” Cabin Coasters A set of 4 coasters was $19.99. Click here to see more EPCOT-themed clothing collections in Disney World. EPCOT Construction Updates We took a look at the upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction to see what’s going on with construction there. Lookin’ good! We noticed some progress with the painting on the exterior of the building, which is blue, grey, and orange so far. Click here for more Guardians of the Galaxy ride construction updates! Other EPCOT Updates Chalk Art For the Festival of the Arts, several chalk artists have been displaying their work on EPCOT’s sidewalks. We took a look at the progress of a couple of pictures… Chalk art …and stopped to admire a new Moana one by Nate Baranowski that’s nearing completion. Moana art It’s amazing how realistic these 3D chalk pictures look! Crowds In terms of crowds, EPCOT has been very hit-or-miss lately. On one trip, there were some BIG crowds in the park, which led to long queues for the attractions and restaurants. WOW But just a couple of days later, there were very short lines at all of the food booths and a lot fewer people around World Showcase. A lot fewer people now Usually, EPCOT is much more crowded in the evenings and on weekends during festival times, so if you can get there earlier in the morning or during the week, there’s a better chance for low crowds. Secret Sword Do you know what’s hiding behind the waterfall in the Norway pavilion of World Showcase? Waterfall is turned off In case you didn’t know, there’s a sword back there! It’s usually very difficult to see, but recently the water was turned off, so you could see this EPCOT secret. The water might be turned off for some cleaning since it looks like the area has gotten a little rusty. Hidden sword Now you can tell all of your friends and impress them with your Disney World triva knowledge! The Most Important Update of All Of course, we didn’t forget to stop by the Seas to check on our friends the Sea Urchins! A while ago the keepers put little Mickey ear hats into their tank, and the sea urchins will pick them up and put them on. This is a natural behavior (for camouflage), and it results in some adorable Mickey-hat-wearing urchins. Sea Urchin On our most recent visit, a sea urchin was wearing one of the Mickey hats! Do we check on these guys almost every time we’re in this park? Of course! We focus on the most important news here at DFB. Click here to learn more about these adorable EPCOT sea urchins.
