For better or for worse, Disney has been remaking a lot of their classic films as live-action movies. Some of these remakes have been well-received by fans, while others have not done so well. Pinocchio One story that Disney is currently remaking is Pinocchio, which will feature Tom Hanks and premiere on Disney+ later this year. But did you know that this isn’t the only remake of that classic story in the works right now? Yep, there’s ANOTHER Pinocchio on the way, and now we have the official teaser for it! Oscar-award-winning Guillermo del Toro will be directing the new Pinocchio movie. This film will “reimagine the classic tale as a stop-motion musical adventure,” according to The Hollywood Reporter. ©The Hollywood Reporter Several stars are joining the voice cast, including David Bradley as Geppetto, Tilda Swinton as Turquoise Fairy, Ewan McGregor as Sebastian J. Cricket, Finn Wolfhard, Cate Blanchett, John Turturro, Ron Perlman, Tim Blake Nelson, Burn Gorman, and Christoph Waltz. Gregory Mann (a newer actor) will voice Pinocchio. Pinocchio in Disneyland From the teaser, it sounds like this story will be told from the perspective of Jiminy Cricket (or Sebastian Cricket, in this case). The Hollywood Reporter stated that this story is “set during the rise of fascism in Mussolini’s Italy” and centers on “love and disobedience as a result of Pinocchio’s struggle to live up to his father’s expectations.” Jiminy Cricket This movie is coming out on Netflix in December of 2022.

Crowds are something you usually have to deal with when visiting Disney World. Crowds in Magic Kingdom We usually see the biggest around Spring Break, the summer, and the holidays. They contribute to long wait times for rides and food, and sometimes even merchandise! But, there are some times of the year that are less crowded than others. We usually think of right now (late January) as one of the least crowded times of the year in the parks, but that is definitely NOT the case today in Disney World! It is BUSY in Disney World today! Whoa! This is kind of odd for this time of year. It’s late January and it’s not a holiday weekend or anything, so what is going on? People coming into the park We really noticed the crowds in Magic Kingdom this morning. When we first walked on to Main Street, U.S.A. it was very busy. Welp, we better prepare for some long lines today! And, the crowds just got worse as we continued down the street… A lotttt of people! …and got closer to Cinderella Castle. A small gap! Over in Adventureland, it didn’t seem as crowded, but there were still a lot of people around. At 1PM, Jungle Cruise had a wait time of 90 minutes, Pirates of the Caribbean had a wait time of 60 minutes… You know it’s busy if Tortuga is open! …and The Magic Carpets of Aladdin had a wait time of 55 minutes — yikes! Would you wait almost an hour for this ride? We made our way around to Frontierland, where crowds weren’t any better. Oh boy! Big Thunder Mountain Railroad had a wait time of 80 minutes around 1PM. More crowds Then, we moved down to Liberty Square, where there were still a LOT of people around! Haunted Mansion was at a 65 minute wait. Seriously… it’s January?! It was even crowded in the stores! Eeeek! But, the crowds were REALLY big once we got into Fantasyland. The area between Peter Pan’s Flight and “it’s a small world” was packed! It’s a tight squeeze after all! The wait times around 1PM for the rides in Fantasyland included Peter Pan’s Flight at 120 minutes, “it’s a small world” at 65 minutes, PhilharMagic at 65 minutes, and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at a whopping 145 minutes! Wowza Over by Prince Charming Regal Carrousel, it was a sea of strollers! So, we walked down to Tomorrowland to see if crowds were any better. But, we were met with more people! Oh would ya look at that, it’s crowded There was a very long line for Space Mountain, which was at an 80 minute wait around 1PM… Uh… …and for the PeopleMover, which had a wait of 35 minutes (one of the lowest in the park!). For the PeopleMover?! Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin was also very busy, with a wait time of 75 minutes. Send help, it’s too busy So, if you’re planning on going to Magic Kingdom today, just be ready for these crowds! WHOA Over in Hollywood Studios, we found it was less crowded than Magic Kingdom, but still busy. A bit better. This was especially true in Galaxy’s Edge. Oh wait, here’s the crowd! The line for Rise of the Resistance was far back into the extended queue section in the morning. Long lines But, unfortunately the ride was down in the early afternoon. Hopefully they got to ride! Over in Toy Story Land, we saw even MORE people! Andy’s coming!! It’s crowded in Andy’s backyard — the wait time for Alien Swirling Saucers was 60 minutes and Toy Story Mania was at 70 minutes around 1PM. Wow Slinky Dog Dash was at a 90 minute wait this morning, then went down in the early afternoon. Slinky Dog Dash line And finally, in EPCOT we noticed some long lines, too! The Seas with Nemo and Friends had a line extended all the way out of the building! But, the wait time around 1PM was only 10 minutes, so the crowds did die down. Nemo — What’s going on?! We’re not sure why exactly it’s so busy in the parks on this Monday in late January, but we’ll be on the lookout for a specific reason. Stay tuned to DFB for news and updates.

Betty White — a beloved icon who starred in many TV shows and films — passed away on December 31st, 2021. Betty White handprints in Disney World Her legacy continues to live on as people have found inspiration in both her film career and her off-camera good works. One of the ways White’s legacy has continued to bring good into the world is the Betty White Challenge, which is an effort to raise money for animal shelters and rescue organizations. This challenge has gone viral on social media, and now people have donated millions of dollars to supporting animals world-wide. The Betty White Challenge began as a way to honor White on what would have been her 100th birthday. People were encouraged to donate to shelters and rescue organizations on January 17th as a tribute to her life-long love and advocacy for animals. ©People As of writing (on January 24th), more than $12.7 million has been donated in White’s honor. On January 17th, almost $900,000 had been donated by 26,000 people, but the donations continued to come in. Now, over 390,000 people have donated to #BettyWhiteChallenge fundraisers on Instagram and Facebook, according to Variety. These platforms do not charge fees for donations to nonprofit organizations, such as nonprofit animal shelters and rescues. ©Variety Betty White is best known for her many roles in TV shows and film, including her roles in The Golden Girls, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Life with Elizabeth, and Hot in Cleveland. She loved animals and frequently advocated for animal welfare throughout her life. She worked as a trustee with the Greater Los Angeles Zoo Association (a nonprofit in Los Angeles) and was also a trustee of the Morris Animal Foundation. In addition, she funded the Betty White Wildlife Fund and sponsored many animal health studies. ©ABC/Getty Images It’s wonderful to see Betty White’s great legacy live on and continue to bring so much light into the world.

When it comes to packing for a trip to Disney World, there are few items deemed as essential as SHOES. In Disney, comfort is key. There’s nothing worse than walking around the parks with a pair of flat, unsupportive sandals — our feet hurt just thinking about it! So, what do you wear to Disney? You may not want to wear glass slippers to Disney World! At DFB, we like arch-supportive, comfortable shoes, like Crocs! Now, there’s a FUN new addition to the Disney World 50th Anniversary Vault Collection; that’s right, we’ve got a new Crocs alert! Check out Disney World’s NEW vintage-inspired CROCS!

That may be an exaggeration, but seriously, there are some cute little illustrations on these Crocs. We need more park map merch! You can grab a pair of these new Disney Crocs for $65. We found them at Main Street Cinema in Magic Kingdom, where all of the other Vault Collection items are. What do you think?

We’ve been keeping track of quite a few construction projects around Disney World and we’re starting to get more details about when they might open! Mickey and Minnie 50th Anniversary Golden Statues So far, we know that both Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and the new Toy Story-themed restaurant (Roundup Rodeo BBQ) will open in 2022, but there might be even more to come! And, aside from all the NEW things coming this year, there are also some other rides, restaurants, and resorts getting some TLC. So, today we’re bringing you along with us to check out all of the latest progress — let’s take a look! Magic Kingdom Splash Mountain The popular water ride, Splash Mountain, closed in Magic Kingdom at the beginning of January for a month-long refurbishment. And, now we’re starting to get an idea of what “routine maintenance” is taking place. For example, this week we noticed that construction crews were working at the top of the mountain where new scaffolding had been placed… Splash Mountain Construction …and they were also down in the moat seemingly working on the mechanics of the ride. Workers spotted at Splash Mountain This refurbishment is not related to the upcoming reimagination of the ride to be themed after Princess and the Frog so it won’t be too much longer before Splash Mountain reopens on February 10th, 2022. Learn More About the Temporary Closure of Splash Mountain HERE! TRON: Lightcycle Run If it feels like we’ve been talking about TRON: Lightcycle Run for years, then you’d be right. This roller coaster was originally announced for Magic Kingdom back in 2019, but construction was delayed due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. We’ve been seeing quite a bit of progress on the exterior portion of the ride recently, and when we stopped by recently, we could see crews up in lifts working on the canopy. Making progress! The canopy itself covers the actual track for the ride and it looks like these may be some of the last preparations before it can be fully installed. Here’s a closer look It’s still unclear when this attraction will open, however, so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for the latest updates! EPCOT Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind Over at EPCOT, more progress has been made on another upcoming roller coaster — Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. Disney has been working to transform the building that once was home to Ellen’s Energy Adventure into a hub for the Xandarians (from Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy) which has involved A LOT of paint. We’ve been keeping track of the painting progress for a few weeks and there’s now only one more pillar left to go. The painting is almost complete! Plus, we also passed by on the monorail and could see that the entrance to the ride is fully paved and the blue tarp that once lined the roof is now entirely gone. It’s coming together! As a reminder, here’s what the entrance will look like when it’s complete… . Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind Concept Art ©Disney Disney has announced that the ride will open sometime in Summer 2022 so it won’t be too much longer before we get to step inside! Click HERE to See What Our First Look INSIDE the Guardians of the Galaxy Ride in EPCOT Was Like! World Celebration If you’ve been to EPCOT recently, then you probably know that the center of the park (also known as World Celebration) still remains mostly a construction zone. We’ve been able to get a few peeks at what could be coming to the old Mouse Gear location from the monorail, but this week we explored the area by foot and noticed that new windows had been installed. New windows! What will be located here is still a mystery, though! One thing that it could be is the new Quick Service restaurant that was recently announced for EPCOT, however, Disney has not confirmed this. Disney’s Hollywood Studios Woody’s Lunch Box Things have gotten a bit more congested over at Woody’s Lunch Box in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! We recently spotted some construction tarp and the infamous “construction bushes” lining the edges of the seating area for the Quick Service restaurant. Woody’s Lunchbox Construction None of the tables that are in the dining area have been impacted, but your lunch view may look a little more…artificially green the next time you eat here. Disney’s Animal Kingdom Dinosaur! Speaking of Disney’s “construction bushes,” we spotted some near the entrance to the ride Dinosaur! in Disney’s Animal Kingdom this week. Some construction going on here There didn’t appear to be any big changes taking place behind the barriers, but we’ll keep an eye out to see what got some sprucing up when they are removed. Disney Resorts Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort We also stopped by Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort where we checked in on some work that had previously been announced for the hotel. Right now, the bridges that connect Old Port Royale to the Aruba and Jamaica neighborhoods are closed, so you’ll find some green barriers blocking your way… No entrance here …and, you might even spot some construction tape as you make your way around. Can see some caution tape in the distance The bridges are expected to be closed through January, so guests staying here can take the internal shuttle between Old Port Royale and the Aruba and Jamaica neighborhoods instead. Well, that’s it for this week’s construction update! We’re always on the lookout for what has changed around Disney World, so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for the latest!

We recently kicked off the Lunar New Year celebrations over in Disney California Adventure at the Lunar New Year Festival. Lunar New Year Festival in Disneyland This festival has all kinds of themed merchandise, entertainment, and delicious snacks and drinks for the Year of the Tiger. But if you’re over on the East Coast in Disney World right now, you can still find some ways to celebrate this holiday! We just found some adorable accessories that are practically essential if you’re celebrating Lunar New Year. Earlier this year, we found some gorgeous Lunar New Year Minnie Ears, which were red with embroidered flowers and pearl accents. But these aren’t the only ears you can find to celebrate the occasion now. Over in EPCOT, we spotted (er…striped?) some new Tiger ear headbands! Tiger ear headbands The House of Good Fortune gift shop (located in the China pavilion) has a lot of Lunar New Year souvenirs to celebrate the Year of the Tiger. These headbands are the latest in the collection, and they are almost too cute to handle. Too Cute There’s a set of ears with a little tiger head on top… Tiger ears …and another with a red crown on top. Red crown ears Both ears are soft and plush-y, with a velvet-type material lining the inside of the headband. A look at the back Each set is $15.95, which is a great deal for a new set of ears in Disney World (most Minnie ears are usually around $30). Whether you’re celebrating the Lunar New Year or just a big fan of tigers, you can head into House of Good Fortune now to get your tiger ears.

If you thought 2021 was a banner year for new Disney shows and movies, then just buckle up for the year ahead! The new year brings a new slate of Disney content, and we’re breaking it ALL down! More of this in 2022, please Between Disney+ and movie theaters, we have a feeling we’ll be clocking a LOT of hours in front of screens this year, so let’s take a look at all the NEW stuff coming down the pipe in 2022! If Disney wants to one-up itself with new series and movies this year, it’s got its work cut out for itself. After all, 2021 was the year of WandaVision, Loki, Hawkeye, Encanto, Luca, Raya and the Last Dragon, and of yeah, ALL the new Marvel movies! It’s WandaVision… on a bus! Looks like Disney is keeping that momentum going STRONG into 2022, according to their impressive lineup slated to hit streaming and theaters! Without further ado, here are ALL the new Disney series and movies coming in 2022! Why Some Analysts Are Concerned About Disney+ January Kicking off the year is a new Disney+ original movie, The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild, which begins streaming on Disney+ on January 28th! ©Disney Based on the Ice Age films, we didn’t expect to see this intellectual property pop up on Disney+, but we’re here for it and will tune in to see what happens! Everything Coming to Disney+ in January February We’re still awaiting an exact date, but Disney+ debuts a new take on The Proud Family SOON! Called The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder, the animated series starts streaming February! ©Disney We’ll get to reunite with the Proud Family and see their new adventures on February 23rd. Almost 2 Years In, is Disney+ or Netflix Winning the Streaming Wars? March The first big new movie of the year is Turning Red, a Pixar film that was first announced a thousand years ago in 2020! From the same director as Bao (AKA the movie that made us all WEEP), the movie tells the story of an awkward teenager named Mei Mei, who turns into a red panda when she gets too excited. Girl SAME. Turning Red ©Disney This flick will drop exclusively on Disney+ on March 11th. Also tentatively set for a March debut on Disney+, we’re getting a whole new take on the Cheaper by the Dozen franchise! In case the 1950 original, or 2003 remake weren’t enough, this one stars Gabrielle Union and Zach Braff as the parents of a LOT of kids. NEWS: Here’s How Many Subscribers Disney+ Has NOW April A new year brings a fresh new crop of live-action Disney remakes, starting with a fun new twist on Chip ’N’ Dale: Rescue Rangers! Heading to Disney+, this one is part live-action and part-CGI, starring Andy Samberg and John Mulaney as the titular chipmunks — sign us UP! (Here’s hoping that BOP of a theme song makes a return as well!) It’s your time to shine We loved seeing the little Rescue Rangers Easter Egg in the rebooted Ducktales, so we can only imagine the adventures and antics our favorite chipmunks will get into in this new series. 18 AWESOME Movies and Shows You Had No Idea Were On Disney+ May The first BIG new movie of 2022 looks to be the next epic chapter in Marvel’s Phase 4: Dr. Strange and the Multiverse of Madness. Hot on the heels of Spider-Man: No Way Home, and featuring none other than Wanda herself, this one hits theaters May 6th. Dr. Strange Teaching the Mystic Arts If you’ve been waiting for a basketball-inspired take on Cinderella, your time has come. Originally due in February, May 13th sees the Disney+ release of Sneakerella, a new live-action reimagining of Cinderella, featuring sneaker tycoons, basketball stars, and if we’re being honest, far more sensible footwear than glass slippers. ©Disney If Disney does any two movie categories well, they are inspiring sports stories (like Mighty Ducks: Gamechangers, Miracle, and Big Shot) and Disney’s bread and butter, fairytales. Sneakerella seems to be the hybrid of a perfect combo and we’re here for it. How Disney+ Will Continue to Save the Walt Disney Company June Disney loves a good origin story. Just look at the success of Maleficent and Cruella! For their next origin story, they’re veering away from villains and into the Pixar universe with a standalone Lightyear film, with the star character voiced by none other than Captain America himself, Chris Evans! The movie is tentatively slated to hit theaters June 17th. ©Disney See the hero that inspired the action figure, and see just how similar they actually are to each other. What To Watch on Disney+ If You Want To Feel Like You’re In The Parks! July Another EPIC Marvel entry hits theaters this summer, the next chapter in the Thor saga! Called Thor: Love & Thunder, it’s the direct sequel to Thor: Ragnarok, with Chris Hemsworth back as Thor (duh), the return of Natalie Portman, and new cast members like Christian Bale. This one arrives July 8th. ©Disney | Marvel Studios Just the series announcement carries some strong 80’s vibes, and with the hit of Thor: Ragnarok, we’re pumped to see if this next Thor segment can give us that same thrill! Marvel Fans, Are You Sitting Down? Here’s a FULL List of the New Marvel Shows Coming To Disney+! Summer Although an exact date has yet to be announced, we’re getting a new Baymax series on Disney+ this summer! The emphatically titled show, Baymax!, follows our favorite hero from Big Hero 6 on what are sure to be some cute, sweet, and emotional journeys! Baymax Cupcake In case you’re somehow still starved for fresh Marvel content, look no further than Ms. Marvel, an original series starring Iman Vellani in the titular role, set to hit Disney+ this summer. ©Marvel Kamala Khan (Ms. Marvel) is one of the newer Marvel characters and promises to be just as endearing as Spider-man! 4 BIG Marvel Stars Will Be Featured in a Special Way on Disney’s Latest Cruise Ship Fall Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey are BACK in the sequel to 2007’s Enchanted! Coming to Disney+ at some point this fall, Disenchanted reunites us with Giselle, and we can’t wait to see what she’s been up to! ©Disney+ Uh oh! Looks like someone lit that Black Flame Candle yet again! We’ve waited a LOoooOONG time for this one: Hocus Pocus 2 FINALLY arrives this fall on Disney+! The dream team cast is back, as Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy return as the Sanderson Sisters, presumably just in time for some Halloween shenanigans in Salem! ©Disney Pinocchio is the next animated classic to get the live-action treatment this fall. Set to stream on Disney+, the movie is directed by Robert Zemeckis and stars Tom Hanks, Cynthia Erivo, Luke Evans, and the voices of Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Keegan-Michael Key, and Lorraine Bracco. I’m a real boy! ©Disney Another live-action remake headed straight to Disney+ later this year is Peter Pan and Wendy! It’s yet another re-telling of Peter Pan, albeit with Jude Law as Captain Hook, so we’re ON BOARD. ©Disney Great news! One of Pixar’s most extensive franchises is getting its own standalone series on Disney+! Cars rev back into action this fall as Cars on the Road, with Owen Wilson and Larry the Cable Guy returning to voice Lightning McQueen and Mater. Can ya say “KA-CHOW!” ©Disney All of these releases in Fall 2022 are sure to keep families glued to their TV and streaming devices, and offer something for everyone! Disney+ Needs “More Content for More People” According to Former CEO Bob Iger November Easily one of the most hotly anticipated movies of the year, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever hits theaters on November 11th! Although Chadwick Boseman tragically passed away in 2020, and will not return as the namesake superhero, and the film has seen a number of cast setbacks, we’re eager to see what other Wakanda characters get to shine, and what stories they’ll tell. Wakanda Forever! ©Marvel Disney’s next animated feature is called Strange World, and though the voice cast is still TBA, we know that the film focuses on a family of explorers called the Clades, in a mysterious world filled with fantastical creatures. It’s scheduled to open in theaters on November 23rd. Disney Is Giving The Phrase “Bringing Movies To Life” A Whole New Meaning! December One of the most successful movies in history is FINALLY getting a sequel — like, for real! It’s been a LONG time coming, but Avatar 2 is due to open in theaters December 16th. The James Cameron mega-movie is sure to be HUGE, and we can’t wait to return to Pandora to see what tricks he has up his sleeve. Immerse us in your world, James Cameron While we all await the third chapter in The Guardians of the Galaxy (and the new ride at EPCOT), we can fill the void with fresh new Guardians content later this year. I Am Groot is an animated series heading to Disney+, along with The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special set to arrive in December. ©Marvel We’ll definitely be able to get our Guardian’s fix with the new Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction opening in summer 2022. EVERY Remake, Reboot, Sequel, Prequel, and Spin-Off Film in the Works at Disney RN TBD Could this be 2022’s The Mandalorian? The highly anticipated new Disney+ Star Wars series, Obi-Wan Kenobi, arrives later this year, picking up several years after the events of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith. Ewan McGregor returns as Obi-Wan, along with Hayden Christensen as Darth Vader! ©Disney Another Star Wars series hitting the streaming platform this year is Andor, a prequel to Star Wars: Rogue One. Disney Releases More Details About Andor and Obi-Wan Kenobi ‘Star Wars’ Series! After the rampant success of other Marvel series like WandaVision and Hawkeye, it was inevitable that more would follow. Coming later this year to Disney+ is Moon Knight, an original series based on the comic superhero of the same name, starring Oscar Isaac and Ethan Hawke. ©Disney | Marvel Studios Secret Invasion is another Marvel-based miniseries headed to Disney+, with Samuel L. Jackson back as Nick Fury, and a premise centered around shape-shifting aliens called the Skrulls. ©Marvel But wait, there’s more! She/Hulk is yet ANOTHER Marvel series coming down the pipe in 2022.

The EPCOT Festival of the Arts has been making all sorts of CRAZY headlines lately! Sure, we’ve discussed all the best places to eat, what you should try, and where to get some new merchandise, but none of that news quite compared to the saga of the Figment popcorn bucket. Behold, the popcorn bucket that guests waited HOURS to purchase. This little guy caused a LOT of trouble! Since all that craziness, Figment is now completely sold out, and the dust has settled. Or has it? During our latest visit to the EPCOT World Showcase, we found a MASSIVE line for a Festival of the Arts food booth! Was it for the popular Pop Eats booth, where guests could once purchase the Figment popcorn bucket? Perhaps there was a long line at Refreshment Outpost, home of the beloved new Dole Whip treat? Nope! Tomato Soup with Bacon, Apple, and Brie Grilled Cheese Oddly, even though it’s a weekend, festival-favorite locations like the America pavilion and the Japan pavilion are practically empty! No line here! Even La Cava del Tequila, which is known for long lines and high crowds, was completely empty! So what was everyone standing in line for? Where is everyone?! It turns out that Vibrante & Vívido: Encanto Cocina is VERY popular! This is also known as the Encanto booth, where you can get Spicy Ajiaco Soup, House-made Chorizo and Potato Empanada, and Passion Fruit Mousse with Dragon Fruit Jam. We found the crowd! The booth is located in between the Morocco and France pavilions, but the line extended all the way into the France pavilion! Talk about POPULAR! This booth has some AMAZING options! We’ve been noticing some pretty consistently long lines at this festival food booth, so if you want to try the House-made Chorizo and Potato Empanada or the Coconut and Passion Fruit Smoothie, you might have to wait a while! Keep in mind that the lines are typically a little longer on the weekends, so you might find a shorter wait during the week! Would you wait in line to eat here?

Disney World is truly a magical place, especially during special times like the 50th Anniversary and the EPCOT Festival of the Arts! However, the real magic of Disney World is the Cast Members who make all of this happen! Disney’s Hollywood Studios Today while we were roaming around Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we met a Cast Member that we weren’t expecting to see! This Cast Member was a bit trashy, and we mean LITERALLY because it was a trash can with a name tag! His name is Tote Tameran (which sounds like a fun play on the character Poe Dameron!). You didn’t think we were talking about a REAL Cast Member right? We’d never berate some of the hardest working people in the biz. Tote Tameran! Over in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you can find this amazing garbage can rolling around every now and then! Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge However, Tote Tameran has some competition for the title of “coolest Disney trash can” because the food waste cans over in Disneyland won an award last year! They were part of Disney’s big sustainability initiatives, which is pretty cool for a trash can. We love ALL of Disney World’s Cast Members, even Tote Tameran! We’re always on the hunt for the best Cast Member stories and magic moments from around the parks, so if you’ve had a particularly magical day because of a Disney Cast Member, let us know in the comments!

There are some things in life that are truly too good to resist. For us, desserts may happen to be just one of them! Thankfully, Disneyland Paris has released one of their recipes for us to enjoy at home in a series called Totalement Toques. ©Disneyland Paris Although we may not be experts on making desserts, anyone can cook! Right?! This particular recipe comes from Anas Alaoui Mdaghri. Anas happens to be the Head Sous-Chef of the Yacht Club restaurant at Disney’s Newport Bay Club located in the Disneyland Paris Resort. This dessert not only looks light, airy, and fresh but it’s vegan too! ©Disneyland Paris Ingredients Here’s what we’ll need: Ingredients for the Vegan Meringue Cider vinegar: 1 teaspoon Powdered sugar: 1 cup Hazelnuts: 1 tablespoon Chickpea water: ½ cup Ingredients for the Vegan Coconut Cream Coconut cream: 1 cup Powdered sugar: 1 cup One Lime Recipe Preparation: Roast the hazelnuts in a pan. Rub them in a clean towel to remove the outside layer, then crush and set aside. In a food processor, whip up the chickpea water, add the sugar as you go, then the vinegar. You must obtain a firm foam. Place the mixture in a pastry bag and pipe circles 10 cm in diameter. Sprinkle with the crushed hazelnuts and bake at 215°F for 90 minutes. Pour the coconut cream into the food processor and process until frothy. Add the powdered sugar and then the lime zest. After finished, place in a pastry bag. Arrange your Pavlova starting with a meringue disk. Add a layer of cream, then red fruits, more cream and another meringue disk. Finish the preparation of your dessert by decorating the top disk with coconut cream and fresh fruit. For the finishing touch, you can sprinkle with lime zest and fresh mint leaves. ©Disneyland Paris Of course, a professional chef makes it look easy! Give it a shot and share your creations with us!
