The Spookiest Time of the Year is here! Disney World may have a head start on Disneyland, but the West Coast parks are playing catchup in a serious way! That means it’s time to munch on some new Halloween treats! The decorations are up in Cars Land! We stopped by Disney California Adventure to try out a brand new Halloween churro! The new Chocolate and Matcha Churro is here for the Halloween season! This treat features a Churro rolled in Chocolate Cookie Crumbs, drizzled with a Matcha Cream Cheese Buttercream and Strawberry Sauce. You can find this treat over at Willie’s Churros in Disney California Adventure for $6.75! Ready?? There’s a LOT going on here: Chocolate, Matcha, AND Strawberries?! We weren’t sure if we were going to like this one, but we were pleasantly surprised by…some parts of it! The combination of strawberries and chocolate was a winning pair for us and the gummy worms were a nice touch of extra sweetness and texture. We’re not sure about this one… However, we got to talk about the matcha cream cheese buttercream, guys. We did NOT like the matcha on this churro! Now, we’re not saying that this churro is bad by any stretch of the imagination, but beware of the matcha flavor if you’re not a fan of green tea! If you’re not big on matcha flavor, you can ask for no matcha cream cheese buttercream or for it on the side. You can also do the same with the strawberry sauce and get that on the side too. The gummy worms and chocolate were highlights! Green tea? Good. But with so much else going on here, it makes a big ol’ messy puddle of sweet chocolate strawberry taste like it got doused in grassy flavored goo. (Which, honestly, bravo for +1-ing the “worms ‘n dirt” theme in that way? Dirt? Grass? We see you, Disney.) This one gets an A+ for the fun Halloween look though, so it might be worth it just for some fun pics and we bet kids will want this as soon as they see it (cause ALL THE GOO! GUMMY WORMS!), but just warn them the green stuff will taste like a cheesecake made from grass (hey, if your kids like the earthy taste of green tea, more power to em!). We think with the sauce on the side to dip to your liking, this would be much more enjoyable (but lose out on the kewl spooky look!).

Most Disney World planning advice isn’t one-size-fits-all! When planning a Disney World vacation, you’ll probably hear a LOT of suggestions from family and friends. And while there are a few things that pretty much everyone should keep in mind for their trip, there are some tips that you may want to completely ignore. Here’s the Disney World advice we DON’T follow! “Must-Do” Experiences If you’re chatting about your upcoming Disney World vacay, chances are pretty good that you’ll hear comments like “you HAVE to eat at Cinderella’s Royal Table” or “if you don’t ride Space Mountain, you basically didn’t even go to Disney World!” Space Mountain We’d like to politely disagree. And hey, we’re definitely guilty of saying things like that when talking with our personal friends and family too. We know first-hand how passionate Disney fans can get about their favorites! Be Our Guest Restaurant There are certainly some quintessential Disney World rides, restaurants, and experiences, but just because something is super popular, or at the top of someone else’s list, doesn’t mean it will be a fit for your vacation. Just because eeeeeeveryone says you HAVE to ride Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance at Hollywood Studios…actually…doesn’t mean you have to. In fact, you might not care about this ride at all and find much more joy elsewhere. Just remember when others offer advice: it’s not THEIR trip, it’s YOUR trip. Remember that. Rise of the Resistance If you’re traveling with kiddos that struggle with spooky things or dark places, you might want to skip attractions that others consider a “must-do” like Haunted Mansion or Tower of Terror. Or heck, maybe your kids are infants and you’d rather focus on rides everyone in your family can do. So spooky! There’s no one-size-fits-all Disney World trip, so don’t feel like you have to do something just because someone else said it was their favorite. Do your research and talk to the rest of your travel party to decide on YOUR must-dos…and must-skips! We Bet You Didn’t Know ALL These Easter Eggs in Disney World’s Tower of Terror Load Up Your Park Bag There are some essentials that we pretty much always have on us in the parks like a phone charger, water bottle, and rain gear. And we try to keep you prepared for anything by suggesting things to bring in the parks with you but…it can be a LOT. Don’t want to lug around a backpack full of gear? No problem. Maybe you like it easy breezy and NO bag, purse, or otherwise. That works too. (See, we’re back on the “It’s your trip. Do what works for you” kick!) Mickey Mouse Rainbow Umbrellas Even though there are a lot of useful items to bring each day, that doesn’t mean we pack an entire suitcase worth of gear in our park bags. You’ll be walking A LOT, so be reasonable with the items you put in your park bag and only bring the things that you think you’ll actually need. FuelRods can be found all around the parks! Keep in mind that you can buy some essentials at the gift shops, first aid, and baby care centers in the parks too, so it’s not the end of the world if you end up needing something you didn’t bring. We make a habit of checking the contents of our park bag each day and adjusting for the new day ahead. You can buy baby medicine and other essentials Basically, if we’ll definitely or probably need it, it goes in our park bag. But if not, it stays in the room — or at home! What’s In Our Bag?! DFB Reporters Share Their Secrets in Disney World Plan Out Your ENTIRE Trip It’s true that there’s a decent amount of planning that goes into a Disney World vacation. BUT, overplanning your trip is a recipe for disaster. And the fear of missing out (FOMO) seems to get concentrated around a Disney trip. After all, you’re spending a lot of money to have a “magical” vacation, you want to squeeze every ounce of pixie dust out of every moment, right? Spaceship Earth If you plan too much, you’ll find yourself rushing around the parks and potentially missing out on some of your plans. In addition to all of the extra stress and exhaustion, this can even cost you money in some cases, like missing an Advance Dining Reservation. Not to mention you will likely run your family and/or yourself ragged. Le Cellier Steakhouse Talk to everyone you’re traveling with ahead of the trip to figure out everyone’s must-do rides, restaurants, and experiences. Plan those things into your trip to make sure you hit them and then everything else you get to is icing on the cake! (And you know how much we like icing….well, and cake!) Expedition Everest Also, be sure to leave yourself some downtime without anything planned. That way, you’ll have time for things like re-riding attractions you loved, hitting things that you missed due to unexpected closures, or just getting some much-needed rest! The ULTIMATE Guide to Planning A Walt Disney World Vacation Hit the Most Popular Attractions First One strategy lots of guests use is to head to the most park’s most popular attraction right when the park opens (or at “rope drop” in Disney-speak). Flight of Passage But here’s the problem: this is SUCH a common strategy that a LOT of folks do it each day. And if you aren’t literally one of the first people at the ride, you might end up waiting even longer for the ride than you would later in the day. Let’s go for a ride! If you are heading out for rope drop, consider starting your day with a top-tier attraction that’s not quite as popular as the newest headliners. For example, in Magic Kingdom, head to Splash Mountain or Space Mountain instead of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. Splash Mountain The one important exception here is in the case of outdoor attractions. Since outdoor rides close during inclement weather, it still may be worth rope-dropping it if it’s a must-do attraction for you. Storms will often hit in the early afternoon, and you don’t want to risk missing out on your favorite ride, even if that does mean waiting in a long line! Slinky Dog Dash Remember that you can hop in line for an attraction all the way up until the moment the park closes, so for rides with steadily long wait times like Flight of Passage, you could hold off until the very end of the day to avoid spending your park time in line. But again, unexpected closures do happen occasionally, so only use this strategy for rides you won’t be heartbroken if you miss! The BEST and WORST Lines to Be Stuck in at Disney World Make It To Rope Drop Every Day Speaking of rope drop, don’t feel like you have to be one of the first people in the parks every day (or any day!) of your trip. Animal Kingdom Entrance It’s important to build in some time to rest, sleep in, and recharge during your trip, especially if you have a longer vacation! Trust Us, You Won’t Want to Rush Out of Your Bed EVERY Morning! And if your travel party really isn’t into the early mornings, you might not want to head out for rope drop at all if everyone will end up grumpy for the rest of the day. It’s not worth dealing with meltdowns all day just to fit in a few extra rides! Disney’s Hollywood Studios Remember that advice above to not overplan your days? We’ve seen it too many times where families push themselves to stay until park close, THEN have a late dinner reservation, THEN up and at ’em first thing in the morning to rope drop a park. (Are you tired just reading that sentence??) If you’re not a ray of sunshine first thing in the morning or the idea of peeling your kids out of bed before the sun is up sounds, well, horrible…DON’T DO IT! You can typically still take advantage of slightly lower crowds in the few hours before park close if evenings are more your jam! What Exactly is Rope Drop in Disney World and How Can YOU Do It Like a PRO? Park Hopping is a Must Some guests love the flexibility of being able to hop from park to park. But, much like everything else in Disney World, that doesn’t mean park hopping will work for YOUR specific party! Park Hopping Information Transportation between parks can take a LONG time — sometimes upwards of an hour — so remember that if you do park hop, you’ll be spending a portion of your day in transit. Especially if you try to hop around peak times, like when park hopping hours begin or shortly before one park is about to close. Monorail Line There’s a TON to take in at each of the parks, even outside of the attractions. Sometimes we prefer to dedicate our day to one park so we can take it slow and soak everything in! Hey there, Snow White! Also, consider the physical needs of everyone you’re traveling with. Do you have nappers? People with limited mobility? If so, it may be better for you to plan on spending shorter park days anyway, which makes hopping an unnecessary add-on. We know plenty of folks that Park Hopping is a necessity to how they plan their days in Disney World and others that could never use it and be perfectly content. Just depends on your family’s preferences! Foregoing the Park Hopper option saves some money, too — which is always nice! Should You Be Worried About This Potential Park Hopping Problem in Disney World? Planning a Disney World trip can feel overwhelming at times. OK, most of the time TBH. Especially if you’re getting overloaded with suggestions from family and friends! (Be nice — they mean well ) Keep in mind that there’s no one-size-fits-all Disney World vacation, and your plans should be about what’s best for YOU and your travel party. These are the pieces of advice we take with a grain of salt…so plan accordingly! Sometimes the best part of doing your research is knowing which attractions or experiences you CAN SKIP without regrets. Planning a Disney World Trip?! You Need to Know About These 16 Changes!

Breakfast may be the most important meal of the day, but when your day includes racing to rope drop or running for Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, it sometimes has to be the FASTEST meal of the day, too. We’ve tried a lot of Walt Disney World breakfasts, and we’ve found the best FAST breakfasts that will fuel your fun-filled morning. Breakfast Bowl at Yak & Yeti Local Foods Cafe Even if you’re not a big breakfast eater, it can help get your morning started to grab at least a little something when you set out for a Disney World kinda day. It’s good to know that options abound for those of us who want to grab something delicious and FAST. Joffrey’s at the Transportation and Ticket Center Before you hop on that monorail or fast foot it over to the ferry, STOP! You are just a few steps away from a great fast breakfast option. This often overlooked Joffrey’s location isn’t usually on the radar for people trying to get into the theme parks quickly, so the lines aren’t too bad. Joffrey’s Coffee at the Transportation and Ticket Center A quick stop will get you your morning cuppa Joe and one of their delicious pastries! But if you miss it, you’ll find more Joffrey’s coffee inside the theme parks! (PSST…a lot of our reporters actually PREFER Joffrey’s coffee over the other coffee option in the parks that rhymes with Shmarshmucks!) Click here to find even more Joffrey’s locations for even more fast breakfast options! BoardWalk Bakery As the name suggests, this location is at the BoardWalk Inn & Villas, and if you’re staying in the area or plan to walk to Disney’s Hollywood Studios or EPCOT, the BoardWalk Bakery could be on your way. Although it’s best to get here first thing in the morning, even if there is a line, it moves pretty quickly. BoardWalk Bakery case It won’t be long until you are noshing on a delicious Butter Butter sandwich (basically a ham and cheese on rich, buttery bread) and sipping a cappuccino. Even their simple staples like croissants are fresh made and DELISH. And once you’re fueled up, you can propel yourself to the Force that awaits you at Hollywood Studios! Click to see the latest breakfast sandwich options at the BoardWalk Bakery! Quick Service Dining at Your Resort With the advent of mobile ordering, this is an excellent choice to get your Mickey waffles or a full breakfast platter super quickly. Place your order first thing in the morning, and when your time window opens, it can be as little as a four or five-minute time investment to get breakfast. World Premiere Food Court at Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort Just zip in, snag your bag, and be on your way! Just make sure to reserve your arrival window early! Most resort quick service spots offer up similar breakfast options like Mickey Waffles, breakfast platters, or sandwiches. Some of the more unique locations, like Cap’t. Cook’s at the Polynesian Village Resort, have specialties like Tonga Toast for breakfast. A deep-fried slab of sourdough stuffed with bananas and rolled in cinnamon sugar works wonders to get us moving first thing in the morning. YUM! Learn how to navigate Mobile Ordering like a pro HERE! Yak and Yeti Local Foods Cafe at Disney’s Animal Kingdom This one is easy to walk past if you’re hustling to get to Expedition Everest or an early morning safari, so you may find the lines really manageable. Stop by Yak and Yeti Local Foods Cafe in the Asia section of Animal Kingdom for a delicious and hearty breakfast bowl, eat an on-the-go breakfast sandwich, or the ultimate fast breakfast option – pancake and sausage on a stick. Pancake on a stick – taking to-go food to the next level. Even though this portable beauty is on the Kids’ Menu, you are encouraged to embrace your inner child and grab one for yourself. Talk about getting it to go! This one is easy to eat while you trek your way over to your first attraction. Plus it comes with really good hash brown bites! Happy with breakfast? Check out Yak and Yeti Local Foods Cafe for LUNCH! Kona Island at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Do you love a little tropical vibe in the morning – especially if it comes with a Kona blend coffee? Kona Island is a great morning spot AND a quick stop on the monorail. This fast breakfast may be worth the few minutes you’ll take hopping off on your way to Magic Kingdom (just note that, at this time, the Polynesian Village Resort monorail station is closed due to construction). Note that this spot is not to be confused with the Kona Cafe, the Table Service location right next door. Kona Island provides some great on-the-go breakfast options and truly divine coffee options, just steps away from the monorail stop. Breakfast, island-style Pastries, a croissant sandwiches, and specialty coffees are available just by walking up to the counter and will get you where you need to go quickly. What did we think of Kona Island’s newest chocolate-covered bacon? Click to find out! Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie in Epcot’s World Showcase We swoon when we think of Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie, which is tucked into the back of the France Pavilion at Epcot. Offering freshly baked croissants and baguettes, delicious sandwiches, Mimosas, and more, you can make yourself an amazing brunch from the offerings here. When they are open for breakfast (which they were, before the closure), you could come in through Epcot’s International Gateway entrance and miss a bulk of the crowds. So, for those staying in an EPCOT area hotel, it’s an even quicker choice than entering through the main gates. Pastries in Display Case at Les Halles Bakery But even with the later opening time, there are plenty of options for a quick but delicious breakfast, and it’s definitely a favorite any time of day. The Croque Monsieur or really ANY of their awesome sandwiches would make a fantastic start to your day. Click here to see what we thought of the chocolate tart at Les Halles Sleepy Hollow Refreshments at Magic Kingdom When everyone else veers off to race to Seven Dwarfs Mine Train or Space Mountain, you head straight to Liberty Square for one of our favorite fast breakfasts at Sleepy Hollow Refreshments. You won’t find the wait too long if you’re heading there early, but what you will find could fix that rumbly in your tumbly in the best way. The fresh fruit waffle sandwich is a must-do (hot and fresh waffle+Nutella+fresh fruit? Yes PLZ!), and if you’re craving those Mickey waffles, you’ll find them here, plain or with strawberries. So much Nutella! You can wash it down with a great iced coffee, and you’ll be ready to roll to your first big adventure. Check out a great place for a healthy snack in Liberty Square Ronto Roasters at Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios If breakfast takes you to a galaxy far, far away, you can grab a quick and yummy bite at Ronto Roasters. The breakfast version of the fan-favorite Ronto Wrap includes grilled pork sausage, eggs, cheese, and an out-of-this-world-good peppercorn sauce. We might actually even like the breakfast version best! Bright Suns indeed, you beautiful Ronto Morning Wrap! If eggs don’t do much for you, you can order a regular Ronto Wrap (this will sub those eggs out for a crunchy slaw and add in some roasted sliced pork!) You’ll find a few other options that are a good, quick breakfast meal in this park, but once you see this Ronto Wrap, well, “Chewie, we’re home.” Learn how YOU can make your own Ronto Wrap at home by clicking HERE Kusafiri Coffee Shop and Bakery at Disney’s Animal Kingdom With options like a pistachio honey croissant, a classic breakfast sandwich, or the definitely shareable colossal cinnamon roll, it’s a given that Kusafiri Coffee Shop and Bakery in the Africa section of Animal Kingdom is a delicious breakfast option, but it also happens to be super fast. This is another hidden gem in the morning that people might skip right by as they head to a line somewhere else. Warm Colossal Cinnamon Roll — Up Close It’s certainly not the first fast breakfast food location you’ll encounter in Animal Kingdom (which is why we suspect most people end up at Creature Comforts, the park’s resident Starbucks location). But if you’re looking to start your day with a trip on Kilimanjaro Safaris or in the back of the park, your patience will be rewarded. It’s definitely worth a stop for something good and quick, and the sugar rush from that cinnamon roll will keep you moving most of the morning. See what we thought when we tried some of the breakfast items at Kusafiri Sunshine Seasons at Epcot Located inside the Land Pavilion, there are a ton of seating options if you go to Sunshine Seasons first thing in the morning, and that helps this location make the list of the faster breakfast spots. We are still waiting for the breakfast service to open back up, but when it does, you can expect grab-and-go options like cereal, pastries, and fruit, and you’ll also be able to score a full breakfast platter. Grab and Go options And while you can expect huge crowds starting around lunchtime, breakfast is almost always a fast choice. Click HERE to see our latest review from Sunshine Seasons Kringla Bakeri og Kafe at Epcot There’s no sugar coating this, breakfast here is a sweet move. School Bread (a sweet, custard-filled roll topped with icing and toasted coconut), a chocolate Mickey tart, and a Troll Horn (puff pastry stuffed with marmalade cream) are just some of the sugar-packed options you’ll find at Kringla Bakeri og Kafe, a Norwegian bakery located (not surprisingly) in the Norway Pavilion! But while this is a pretty popular place as the day goes on, you can get there just as they open and beat the crowds of rice cream seekers. School Bread If it’s gonna be a long day, add a Viking Coffee spiked with Irish Cream AND coffee liqueur to get you through. Chow your breakfast goodies then hop in line for Frozen Ever After — it’ll likely have a slightly shorter wait first thing in the morning! Find out HERE what we thought of the chocolate Mickey tart! Contemporary Grounds at Disney’s Contemporary Resort Another monorail stop, a quick morning pop into Contemporary Grounds means you are a short walk to the gates at Magic Kingdom. The pastries are all yummy, but it’s the coffee that stands out here. Serving Joffrey’s Coffee, you’ll be able to get your favorite latte or cappuccino, plus specialty drinks like the Shakin’ Jamaican Cold Brew or the Frozen Kona Mocha. There’s also a selection of smoothies, packed with fruit and yogurt. Contemporary Grounds, the Joffrey’s location at the Contemporary Resort. When you’ve got breakfast in hand, you’re about 10 minutes to Main Street, U.S.A. Check out our list of the most unique breakfast options in Walt Disney World While these are some of our fast breakfast favorites, mobile ordering may help make even counter service locations in the parks a quick option for your family. And with the many kiosks and Joffrey’s coffee locations throughout Walt Disney World, there’s bound to be something you can grab on the go, no matter where you want to be! And since it is vacation, if you want popcorn for breakfast — no judgment here, we say go for it! Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox! Click here to Subscribe!

In case you haven’t heard, the Halloween season has officially arrived at the Disneyland Resort! We’ve been trying some of their spooky snacks today, including the Trick-or-Treat Sundae and the Halloween Grey Stuff! Haunted Mansion Holiday We now find ourselves at Lamplight Lounge in Pixar Pier at Disney California Adventure, where guests can order a fun Halloween variation of their nachos! The Ghost Pepper Nachos are a plate full of house-made green tortilla chips, ghost pepper cheese sauce, ghost pepper-marinated steak, refried black beans, tomatillo avocado salsa, tomato, and cilantro. Ghost Pepper Nachos While the name “Ghost Pepper Nachos” implies that these could be ultra-spicy (Ghost Peppers are among the spiciest peppers in the world!), we found these to be pretty mild to us! There was definitely a kick, but nothing overwhelming. Ghost Pepper Nachos The cheese sauce also had a little bit of a kick to it but again, it wasn’t too much to handle. The steak was a bit chewy at times, but overall it was a good addition to the nachos and had some spice too! Ghost Pepper Nachos The tomatoes were fairly fresh and added a nice refreshing feel to the dish! This is a great bite that has just the right amount of spice! Ghost Pepper Nachos Overall, if you’re looking for a filling meal that isn’t too spicy, this is a great option! They are a little pricey at $21, so keep that in mind!

We’ve been checking out the fun Halloween decor in the parks, and we’ve been making our way around each park, checking out all the snacks (including this treat that is 2 sundaes in 1). But, we’re not done yet. Next up on our list, we’ve got something just for those who love one specific thing…CHEESE! This isn’t just your regular old cheese treat though. What we grabbed today is a Pepper-Jack Cheese Stick! Spicy. Cheese. On. A. Stick. It’s a Pepper Jack Cheese Stick dipped in Corn Dog Batter and topped with Raspberry Sauce, Pineapple, and Jalapeños. Um…we can’t even. DELISH This snack isn’t new. We have seen it before, but it’s been quite some time since we’ve seen it last, and in the past it has been served slightly differently, with blackberry sauce instead of raspberry. This year, this snack did NOT disappoint. It’s SUPER melty and cheesy with a little kick. Hello gorgeous Oh, and y’all know how much we love a good cheese pull — just look at this! Melty cheesy goodness The sweet raspberry sauce and crushed pineapple topping really balance out the spice. It’s a fantastic mixture of spicy AND sweet, which is a winning combo in our opinion. But it is pretty heavy so you might want to share it with a friend! Close up If you, like us, enjoy a good fried cheese on a stick, head straight to Corn Dog Castle at Disney California Adventure Park and get one for yourself for $8.99. Note that this item comes with your choice of chips or a Cuties mandarin. We’re making our way through more Halloween snacks at Disneyland, so stay tuned for more reviews!

In case you missed it, Halloween has officially arrived at Disneyland! Disneyland Halloween Not only is there a TON of amazing decor spread throughout both parks, but there’s also some cool merchandise, and so many Halloween snacks to try. As we made our way around the parks today we found that one Halloween souvenir has made its wicked return! The Poison Apple Premium Mug has made its return to Disneyland! We actually saw this mug earlier this year at Disneyland in purple and we’ve seen other versions in the past. The one we got today is red. Isn’t it…WICKED? We’re feeling a little evil… We think the Evil Queen would be thrilled! This mug has a lid, so there will be no spilling of your beverages as you run around doing all your Evil Queen errands. So perfectly wicked We found this mug at Red Rose Taverne in Disneyland Park. It comes with a drink or fries for $16.79. Evil needs carbs We also spotted it at the Fruit Stand on Buena Vista Street in Disney California Adventure Park. So if you’re headed to Disneyland Resort, be on the lookout for this wonderfully evil souvenir. We’re covering all the details you need to know about Halloween at Disneyland, so stay tuned for more!

We’re at the Disneyland Resort today checking out all of the newest Halloween offerings, including a ton of their seasonal snacks! We already checked out their Trick-or-Treat Sundae and the Pumpkin Cheesecake Funnel Cake, and now we’re heading over to Fantasyland to dine at Red Rose Taverne! Mickey Pumpkin at Disneyland As the name implies, Red Rose Taverne is inspired by Beauty and the Beast, and this is where you’ll find the famous Grey Stuff! This fall, however, the iconic Disney dessert is taking on a Halloween twist! This year, Red Rose Taverne is offering the Halloween Grey Stuff, which takes their Traditional Grey Stuff (which is a White Chocolate Cookies and Cream Mousse and Red Velvet Cake with a Raspberry Center) and cranks the “spook factor” up a notch with a Tombstone Cookie and Halloween Sprinkles. Halloween Grey Stuff For reference, here’s what the Grey Stuff at Red Rose Taverne normally looks like when it’s not dressed up for Halloween: Looks the same to us; just slightly less spooky! We’re constantly told to try the Grey Stuff (because apparently, “It’s delicious!“), so when we saw that there was a Halloween version available this fall, we knew we had to order one. The tombstone told us to “Dig in,” so we did just that! It’s like if ‘Beauty and the Beast’ met ‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ We were hoping to taste something a little bit different, but this tasted exactly like the regular Grey Stuff with the added component of the shortbread Tombstone Cookie. That’s not necessarily a bad thing; the Grey Stuff has plenty of fans out there that will be glad to know that their favorite Beauty and the Beast-themed dessert is in tact. We would have just liked a little more variety for Halloween! Halloween Grey Stuff Still, this is a fun treat to check out for $6.49 if you’re a fan of Beauty and the Beast and you’re looking for something unique to try this Halloween season. We’ll continue to make our way through the Disneyland Resort to try the latest fall treats, so be sure to follow along!

We are less than a month away from Disney World’s 50th Anniversary! We’re so close to the start of the 50th Anniversary Celebration! If you’re heading to the parks for Labor Day or to check out some of the awesome 50th decorations next week, you’ll want to be prepped with what to pack! To help, we’re taking you through next week’s forecast. Let’s dive in! Weather Forecast According to The Weather Channel, we might see a return to rainy days this week — but don’t think that means we get to say goodbye to warmer temperatures just yet! Expedition Everest Last week was one of the driest we’ve seen in a while. It looks like we’ll keep seeing consistent temperatures but our days might be a little wetter. Let’s take a look! September 6th Monday, September 6th, will give us a HOT Labor Day with high temperatures in the low 90s. Just like recent weeks, the temperatures are going to hang out in about the same place all week. At least that means it will be a little bit easier to pack! ©The Weather Channel Get ready for a 91 degree high and a 75 degree low. This is the first of several days with afternoon showers or storms. Prep with a rain layer so you don’t end up soaked! September 7th The next day, September 7th has a similar forecast with a 90 degree high and a 75 degree low. There’s a bit higher rain chance this day too but you’ll likely see afternoon showers most days this week even with a little variance in rain chance. ©The Weather Channel Humidity is starting to inch down but it’s still the humid season! Be warned that those high humidity levels can sometimes make it feel about 10 degrees hotter than it actually is. September 8th On Wednesday, September 8th, we’re going to see yet another familiar-looking day. Wow, these temperatures are really giving us a little bit of deja vu. ©The Weather Channel Check out that high UV index with the 90-degree day! It’s super important that you wear sunscreen and sunglasses with such intense UV levels. They can be dangerous! September 9th For Thursday, September 9th, we’re seeing ANOTHER day with very little change. Get ready for a 90 degree high and a 76 degree low. There’s a lower rain chance this day, but we might still see a storm. ©The Weather Channel Those mid-70s nights can be VERY comfortable. It’s a great time of year to grab a Dole Whip and watch the fireworks! September 10th WOW. A 90-degree day and 75-degree night? YOU’RE KIDDING. Ok, maybe we’re not at all surprised. September 10th is bringing us more consistent temperatures! ©The Weather Channel It might be a little breezier toward the end of the week too! It’s always nice to feel a little wind when it’s hot out. September 11th And on to Saturday, we’re seeing a notable drop in temperatures. You might not be able to feel too much of a difference, but we’re out of the 90s! ©The Weather Channel September 11th brings us an 88 degree high and a 75 degree low. September 12th Finally, we wrap up the week on September 12th with an 88 degree high and a 75 degree low. Plus, this day has the lowest rain chance of the whole week at 30% during the day and 24% at night! ©The Weather Channel Check out the length of the days! Early September typically means sunrise around 7:10AM and sunset around 7:30PM. Overview of the Week Here is a full overview of the week according to The Weather Channel. Temperatures are projected to hang out in about the same place for the whole week. We’re looking at a range of high 80s to low 90s highs and mid 70s lows. ©The Weather Channel Other websites like Click Orlando News 6… ©Click Orlando News 6 …and WESH 2 News have similar forecasts throughout the week. ©WESH Keep in mind that those Florida forecasts change a LOT. Keep an eye on predictions in the days leading up to your trip and then check them again in the morning before you head out to the park! That way, you know what to expect! Click here to see the essentials you need for your park bag! Tips for Weathering the Weather! Now we know what temperatures and weather we can expect next week, so here are some helpful tips! Expect storms! This week has its fair share of storms in the forecast so there are a few things you should expect. Storms bring a LOT of lightning in Orlando and lightning can close down all sorts of offerings in Disney World including rides and pools. If you’ve got pool time planned or have some outdoor must-do attractions (like Test Track or Expedition Everest), you might want to schedule these activities in the morning! Rain in Disney We tell you ALL the time to have that rain layer prepped, but staying dry is not the only thing to worry about! Don’t miss out on a favorite attraction or much-anticipated plan because you weren’t expecting a storm! See which rides close for weather in Disney World here! Expect HEAT. Also, expect some serious SUN. It might be September and the Halloween decorations might be up, but it is still VERY MUCH summer in Disney World! In fact, the official last day of summer doesn’t even come until September 21st! And summer in Orlando means HOT DAYS. Hot Day in Toy Story Land Make sure that you’re staying safe with such high temperatures. Your body might not be used to walking miles in high heat so make sure you take breaks when you need to and drink a LOT of water. Plus, you gotta lather up and reapply that sunscreen often!

We hope you have SO much fun and we’ll check in again soon with more weather updates. Keep an eye on DFB! Click here to see more of what to expect in Disney World next week!

Did you hear that Halloweentime has kicked off in Disneyland?? Mickey Pumpkin We’re talking Halloween decorations, merchandise, treats, and more. While enjoying the Halloween mood today, we decided to visit an old favorite restaurant to try their Halloween menu offerings! Among all of Disneyland’s new Halloween treats, five menu items are located at Hungry Bear Restaurant. When we learned one of these treats is the returning Pumpkin Cheesecake Funnel Cake, we had to check it back! Hungry Bear Restaurant The Halloween treats at Hungry Bear Restaurant include Pumpkin Cheesecake Funnel Cake, Honey Cream Cold Brew, Loaded Onion Rings, Loaded French Fries, and a Halloween Travel Mug. New Halloween Treats! We decided to get a few new spooky snacks! We tried the Pumpkin Cheesecake Funnel Cake for $8.99, the Loaded Onion Rings for $5.99, and the Loaded French Fries for $5.99. So much deliciousness The Loaded Onion Rings are topped with a Creamy Cheese Sauce, Crispy Bacon, and Green Onions for $5.99. The portion was a little smaller than we’d like but it was still really good. The cheese was SO delicious and the bacon was cooked just right. We have seen a version of these with the addition of cilantro-lime crema, and we loved those too! Loaded Onion Rings The Loaded French Fries had the same vibe as the onion rings for $5.99. They’re covered with the same toppings as the Loaded Onion Rings, and we felt similarly about them — good cheese, good bacon. These were another small portion, but they were still really good. We noticed the photos for both of these menu items looked a bit different than what we got. These are similar to the fries that can usually be found on the secret menu. They’re just missing that cilantro sauce. Loaded French Fries Finally, we got to the returning Pumpkin Cheesecake Funnel Cake, which was Pumpkin Cheesecake Filling and Vanilla Ice Cream topped with Whipped Cream for $8.99. It was almost too pretty to eat. Almost. Pumpkin Cheesecake Funnel Cake We loved this pumpkin funnel cake! It basically tasted like pumpkin pie with a scoop of ice cream on top and it was so smooth and creamy. The pumpkin cheesecake filling was not artificial-tasting at all; it really did taste like pumpkin! Pumpkin Cheesecake Funnel Cake We also took a closer look at the adorable Halloween Travel Mug for $11 with Coke products or $12.25 with Frozen Lemonade. It says “Halloween Tricks and Treats” with Mickey and Minnie cooking up a spell over a smiling cauldron. Halloween Travel Mug If you like loaded snacks or want to try pumpkin funnel cake, head over to Hungry Bear Restaurant in Disneyland!

The sour ice cream tasted like a handful of sour fruit gummies, and the chocolate part of the sundae came topped with Twix pieces and M&M’s. Everything tastes better when it comes served in a Mickey Mouse ice cream bowl…right? While we loved the sour and chocolate parts of the sundae on their own, once the two halves melted together, it tasted a little too bizarre for our taste — almost like a sour chocolate creation some mad scientist concocted (hey, at least it goes with the Halloween theme). You may want to eat this quickly to enjoy the two sundaes separately, or ask for an extra cup to divide the two before they melt together. Turns out chocolate and sour don’t mix well together. If you want to try this hybrid sundae for yourself, you can find it at Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor on Main Street, U.S.A. for $16.99. There are a LOT of Halloween treats in Disneyland this year, however, so you may want to think about trying some other tasty items first if you’re concerned about the two flavors melting together.

Click here to see more about the reopened Brown Derby Lounge. First Signs of Disney’s New Paid FastPass System Arrive A few weeks ago, Disney announced that 2 NEW paid systems would be replacing FastPass+ in Disney World — Disney Genie+ and Individual Attraction Selection. With Disney Genie+ you’ll pay a set amount ($15 per ticket per day) and you’ll be able to select the next available time to return to an attraction and ride it by using that ride’s Lightning Lane (the new name for the FastPass+ Lane), essentially allowing you to skip that attraction’s standby line. Over 40 attractions will be included in the Genie+ service, but select, very popular rides won’t be available through Genie+. Instead, if you want to skip the standby line and use the Lightning Lane at those select, highly popular rides, you’ll have to pay for each attraction individually. ©Disney Disney Genie (the free planning service) is set to launch this fall, and we expect Genie+ and Individual Attraction Selection will launch at the same time. Signs of this new service have already started to appear in the parks. This week we spotted “Lightning Lane” signs at various attractions in both EPCOT… New Sign at Soarin’ …and Magic Kingdom. The sign is up, but the lane is not open yet! We expect more of these signs will pop up in the next several days. We’ll keep an eye out for more updates. Click here to learn more about Genie+ and Individual Attraction Selection. Disneyland Holiday and Halloween News Finally, we end our big news portion with updates about Halloween and the holiday season out at Disneyland! Recently, we got more details about Oogie Boogie Bash, the special Halloween-themed event that will soon be taking place on select nights in Disney California Adventure Park. ©Disney We also got a FULL breakdown of all the Halloween treats you’ll be able to grab in Disneyland this year (spoiler alert: there’s a LOT). Pumpkin Cheesecake Funnel Cake If you’re ready for the holiday season, then you’ll be happy to know that all kinds of holiday celebrations are coming back to Disneyland this year! Guests will be able to dine with Santa again, the Festival of the Holidays is coming back, and holiday parades and fireworks will also be returning to Disneyland. ©Disney We’ll be keeping an eye out for more holiday news from Disneyland, so stay tuned for all the latest updates!

EPCOT is undergoing one of the largest transformations of its lifetime. EPCOT is undergoing a huge transformation! Spaceship Earth recently got a glow-up, the front entrance has a gorgeous new fountain, there’s a Moana-themed water feature on the way, a new space-themed restaurant will open soon, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure will open soon, and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind is currently under construction. There’s even a new nighttime show, Harmonious, debuting this year! Let’s just say that Disney Imagineers have been giving EPCOT a LOT of extra love these past few years! And they’re not done yet. In addition to everything else coming to EPCOT, a new store will also debut there soon, Creations Shop, which will be THE place to shop for Disney gear at EPCOT! This will be the shop to replace Mouse Gear. Creations Shop concept art ©Disney And now we’ve got even MORE details about the shop, thanks to Imagineer Zach Riddley. Creations Shop will also feature some original artwork, including a massive mural dedicated to Mickey Mouse! The art, called Mouse in Motion, spans over 35 feet! ©Disney Riddley wrote, “The composition features Mickey Mouse in dynamic poses through a prism of colors. From left to right, Mickey is in a moment of movement and energy, recalling graphic inspiration drawn from print, media, and even street art.” ©Disney He continued, “We were inspired by our legacy – leveraging hand-drawn linework and the look of Mickey Mouse from the time when Walt Disney World and EPCOT were first being dreamed up by Walt Disney and his early Imagineers.” ©Disney Riddley stated, “In the left portion of the composition, Mickey is proudly carrying a pennant emblazed with the EPCOT logo, one of many nods to our past captured through our design.” ©Disney The large hand-painted mural will be located on the south side of the shop where guests can see it from nearly everywhere within the shop. Disney hasn’t revealed an opening date for Creations Shop yet, but when they do, we’ll be the first to let you know, so stay tuned!
