This year we’ve seen a variety of different events canceled, including Star Wars Celebration. Galaxy’s Edge merchandise ©Disney But missing Star Wars Celebration doesn’t mean you have to miss out on the cool exclusive merchandise that goes with it. In fact, you will soon have the option to shop for exclusive Star Wars merchandise through the Celebration shop! Anyone who purchased a ticket for the original 2020 Star Wars Celebration will get an early access week starting on November 13th at 12PM EST to check out the official Star Wars Celebration Exclusive Merchandise Store. This includes those who requested ticket refunds for the event. Those who purchased 2020 tickets should look for an email soon with details! Star Wars Celebration Exclusive Merchandise ©StarWars.com But don’t fret — even if you didn’t have tickets to the event, you can still check out the Star Wars Celebration store at StarWarsCelebration.com beginning on November 20th at 12PM EST. So you might be able to nab this SWEET Baby Yoda Backpack! Baby Yoda Backpack ©StarWars.com Or maybe you need this ironic Hoth Aloha Shirt, which is pretty tongue-in-cheek because Hoth is an ice planet and it’s always freezing there! Hoth Aloha Shirt ©StarWars.com Or maybe you need some Fuzzy Tauntaun Slippers (not to be confused with the Fuzzy Tauntaun drink at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge). These warm slippers are sort of like the tauntaun that Luke had to slip into on Hoth to keep from freezing to death, except they’re just for your feet. Warm, toasty feet FOR THE WIN. Tauntaun Slippers ©StarWars.com There will be a lot of other very cool exclusive merchandise available, so log in to the shop as soon as you can because these items tend to sell out fast!

We have been LOVING all of the merchandise coming out of EPCOT’s World Showcase lately! World Showcase From pizza ears in the Italy pavilion to T-shirts at the Canada pavilion and those totally Instagrammable Minnie macaron ears from France, you can rep the World Showcase countries and your love of Disney at the same time! We’ve already seen TONS of new tees at EPCOT’s Germany pavilion, and we’ve now spotted a new item… Germany tees at EPCOT …a Germany Mickey and Minnie MagicBand! Germany MagicBands! First of all, the Mickey Mouse on the box in his lederhosen is SO darling! As for the MagicBand itself, that accordion-playing, lederhosen-rockin’ Mickey is featured alongside Minnie in a frau dress singing what we imagine to be some traditional German songs. Germany MagicBand The German word for its country, Deutschland, is also featured. The other side features some of our favorite German snacks, like pretzels and cheese alongside cuckoo clocks, flags, and beer. Germany MagicBand This limited-edition MagicBand costs $34.99 and can be found at Glas und Porzellan. While they were sold out earlier this week, they were restocked quickly (and they’re perfect for any Biergarten fan)!

Dooney & Bourke bags have always been a huge hit with Disney fans! Animal Print Mickey Dooney and Burke bags Despite their higher price, their unique Disney designs usually have these bags flying off shelves! And we’ve seen so many amazing collections, including Haunted Mansion, Disney Dogs, EPCOT Food and Wine Festival, and more!

This is the brand new Disney Holiday Dooney & Bourke Collection, and it goes on sale on November 9th! Disney Holiday Dooney & Bourke Collection We got as close as we could to the wallet to get a good look at the collection’s design. It features a Mickey Snowman, an ice skating Minnie, a lantern-carrying Mickey, and our favorite castle! There are also gold and silver snowflakes patterned all over it. This festive wallet will be available for $158. Disney Holiday Dooney & Bourke Collection Wallet We also got a closer view of the crossbody bag, which will be $228. It features the same design in a crossbody style, although we also see more of the pattern that also includes Mickey and Minnie smooching! Disney Holiday Dooney & Bourke Collection Crossbody Bag We’re sure there are probably more styles in the collection, as this was just a display to get people excited about it.

We’re still full from the massive list of holiday treats that we ate in Disney World (and they were worth every bite). McDonald’s Happy Meal But, we can’t help but look forward to our next great meal in or out of the parks! Restaurants like McDonald’s have made a home for themselves as Disney continues to expand its property. And, White Castle has announced that it will also be bringing its ONLY Florida location right nearby the Disney World resort area! Although White Castle hasn’t had a Florida location in 50 years, the burger chain from the American North East has started its development this year at Unicorp National Developments Inc.’s O-Town West near Palm Parkway and Daryl Carter Boulevard. The new location is only minutes from Disney World, so you can grab a burger on the go before your visit to the parks! ©White Castle According to Spectrum News 13, White Castle has announced that it will begin to build its Orlando location on November 19th! The facade of the restaurant is going to include a “sleek, modern industrial-style architectural design” with the chain’s “iconic tower.” ©White Castle While the restaurant won’t be opening near Disney World’s property until 2021, it will be bigger than White Castle’s largest existing location in Scottsdale, Arizona. White Castle has detailed that “The 4,567-square-foot restaurant will include indoor and outdoor seating, two drive-through lanes, and is expected to create 120 new jobs.” ©Disney Via the Disney Parks Blog And, if you’re craving a burger after a late night in the parks, you’ll be happy to know that White Castle will be open 24/7 to everyone visiting! As more information is released about the upcoming construction on the Orlando location, we’ll be sure to share everything you need to know!

Just because we can’t set sail on the Disney Cruise Line doesn’t mean we can’t play the part at home! Disney Cruise Line’s Disney Dream Or rather, watch professionals play the part on screen, while we virtually transport ourselves to Disney’s veritable Broadway-at-sea! Just in time for holiday entertainment, you can enjoy a virtual viewing of ‘“Frozen, A Musical Spectacular!” With all the closures and restrictions enforced due to the pandemic, Disney parks, resorts, shops, and restaurants have felt a LOT different this year. Nowhere is this more evident than Disney Cruise Line, which is still out of commission! Donald on a Disney Cruise to Alaska But don’t fret! Because if there’s one thing Disney knows how to do, it’s provide magic! One way they’ve done this is through virtual experiences, like a viewing of “Tangled: The Musical” earlier this year, from a previously recorded show on the Disney Magic! Naturally, it was such a SMASH hit that Disney Cruise Line is at it again, this time embracing the chillier season with a viewing of “Frozen, A Musical Spectacular”! Similar to the “Tangled” production, this was a previously recorded show from the Broadway-style Walt Disney Theatre aboard the Disney Wonder, featuring the original cast from the musical’s debut! Not only are you able to enjoy the theatrical stylings of Arendelle from the cozy comforts of your couch, but Disney is letting you crank things up a notch by providing the recipe for Frozen Popcorn Snowballs! Clearly, these are PRIME snacking for any Frozen-themed viewing. ©Disney Parks Blog And then after the show, you can partake in your own DIY shadow puppet show, using easy-to-follow templates and downloadable and printable characters from Frozen, like Olaf, Anna, and Elsa! ©Disney Parks Blog While we certainly miss sailing on the Disney Cruise Line, we’re absolutely LOVING bringing these theatrical experiences into our homes!

Cute dessert should be the key to anyone’s heart. When you put Baby Yoda and cute dessert together, that’s a definite YES for us! The Child Dome Cake Well, the official Star Wars website just shared a recipe and the cuteness is OVERFLOWING!! One of our new favorite pairs has got to be the Mandalorian and the Child! Unfortunately, these cookies may just be too cute to eat! Check out how to bring this adorable duo to life with the recipe for The Mandalorian and The Child Hug Cookies. ©Star Wars Note: Interestingly, the cookie-cutter used to make this is part of a set that isn’t being produced anymore (Come on, guys. Really?!). You can find them on eBay or Etsy if you hunt, but in a pinch, a regular gingerbread man cutter will work. Just be sure to poke or pipe on with icing some details to show it’s Mando! Ingredients Cookie Dough Ingredients 3 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder Pinch of salt 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened 1 cup sugar 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla Black food gel dye Decorating Ingredients Black icing Green fondant Pink taffy Black fondant Boba Fett cookie cutter or knife to etch helmet shapes ©Star Wars Instructions Step 1: In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. Step 2: In the bowl of an electric mixer cream the butter and sugar until combined. Step 3: Add the egg, vanilla, and a small amount of black food gel dye. Step 4: Slowly add in the dry ingredients just until the dough comes together, and turns gray in color. Step 5: Split the dough into two and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator until you are ready to use. Step 6: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prep baking sheets with silpats or parchment paper. Step 7: Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut out the shapes. Add helmet details with the back of a knife. Transfer the dough onto the prepped baking sheets. Step 8: Place a piping tip in the center of the cookie. Carefully fold the arms over to grasp the piping tip. Step 9: Bake for 10 minutes, let cool on a wire rack. Once cooled, carefully slide out the piping tip. Step 10: Pipe black icing using a #3 tip, to add the visor detail. Let dry. Step 11: Roll a small ball of green fondant to form the Child’s head. Add icing on the back to secure, and place in the Mando cookie’s arms. Add a tiny piece of fondant for the nose. Step 12: Pinch two small pieces of green fondant to form long tear drop shapes. Add these to both sides of the ball to form the ears. Secure with icing. Step 13: Create the same tear drop shape with pink taffy for the ear details. Step 14: Use black fondant to make two small balls to form the eyes. Place onto the head, securing with icing. Step 15: Once the fondant and icing is dry, the cookies are ready to serve. These cookies are a great treat to snack on while watching season two of The Mandalorian, don’t you think? Check back for any new recipes! Click here for another Star Wars recipe!

And we tried a few right here at Disney Springs, including the Sleighin’ Snowman, which is a specialty drink exclusive to this location. It’s a vanilla bean Frappuccino with peppermint topped with whipped cream, sleighin’ snowman cookie, and holiday sprinkles. Sleigin’ Snowman It was so tasty, and we loved how the cookie soaked up all the frappuccino goodness! This drink costs $8.50. Read our full reviews of Starbucks holiday drinks Also, you can get a free red holiday cup with purchase (is it just us, or does the top row of the print look like Christmas tacos? !). Starbucks Holiday Cup We also discovered a VERY cool color-changing hot cup! Holiday Color Changing Cup Even better: this cup is only $3! Read more about the Holiday Color Changing Cup at Starbucks Ghirardelli’s Nothing says holidays like chocolate, so we popped into Ghirardelli to see what was up. We found LOADS of great gift ideas with chocolate goodies, including ornaments, bags, and other gifts! Ghirardelli Gift Bags Goofy’s Candy Co. The Christmas treats have arrived at Goofy’s Candy Co.! These are a lot of the same treats we’ve seen in the parks, but it’s good to know you can get them at Disney Springs, too! Goofy’s Candy Co. The Ganachery The Hot Ganache with Bailey’s is back! This is a small serving which is necessary because this is a RICH treat. Hot Ganache with Bailey’s at The Ganachery Disney Springs Merchandise Updates World of Disney It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the shops, and World of Disney is no exception. There are LOADS of holiday items now, but we didn’t see anything we hadn’t seen previously here or at the parks. We love the holiday displays, though! World of Disney Basin If you’re needing some holiday bath and body goodies, Basin has you covered. We really like these Santa bath bombs! They’re $8.99 each. Santa Bath Bombs at Basin There are also some new seasonal Body Butters. These are 3 for $22 or $11.99 each. The scents are Let It Snow, Christmas Cookie, and Candy Cane. Holiday Body Butters at Basin Pin Traders The holiday pins have arrived! We’ve seen a lot of these at Downtown Disney at Disneyland Resort, but now they’re here at Disney Springs, too! Holiday pins at Pin Traders Marketplace Co-Op We saw some super fun Holiday Groot Magnets for $14.99 each. It’s just all about Groot this holiday season, huh? Holiday Groot Magnets Disney Springs Security Updates Disney Springs now has a security check like the parks!

Learn more about Disney Springs new security screening Disney Springs Christmas Updates Christmas Tree Stroll We love seeing all the amazing trees that Disney Springs puts out every year, but this year is a little different. Instead of having all the trees consolidated in one area, they’re spread out to encourage social distancing. So this year, it’s a Christmas Tree Stroll! Check out this Toy Story tree! Toy Story Tree in Disney Springs There’s even a map to show you where all the trees are! It’s more of a scavenger hunt with stickers to mark where you find each tree.

Disney World is beginning to look a LOT like the North Pole, but instead of icebergs and elves, it’s palm trees and gingerbread churros! Magic Kingdom As the parks and resorts continue to deck their halls for the season, Disney Springs is getting all dolled up as well, and it’s DEFINITELY beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Holiday Spirit Jersey From spirit jerseys to hoodies, we’ve seen a bunch of new merchandise in the parks that’s perfect for bundling up during the colder months!

There is just something special about Disney snacks, right? Mickey Bar Some of our favorite treats are the classics, too: like Dole Whips, Rice Krispie treats, and Mickey Ice Cream Bars! We just can’t get enough! Mickey Ice Cream Bars might be one of the simplest treats, but the wonderful thing about them is that they’ve been turning up in grocery stores for the past couple of years now so that we can enjoy them at home! And the list of where they’re showing up keeps growing! But these Mickey bars come in a pack of six. What if you just want one as a quick treat? Mickey Ice Cream Bars at Home Well, now you can buy individually-wrapped Mickey Ice Cream Bars at your grocery store! You can find them in the frozen section where the other Mickey Ice Cream treats are! Mickey Ice Cream Bars We found these for $2.50 each at a Wal-mart in North Carolina (we typically have good luck finding the Disney frozen treats at Wal-Marts!), but it’s likely your local grocery stores could have them, too! Mickey Ice Cream Bar Note that the size here is the same as the boxed bars, but if you happen to be out and about and spot the individually wrapped guys, you can have a quick Disney-inspired treat right away! Personally, we typically go for the boxed bars (why would we NOT want six Mickey Bars? Have you MET us?!). So now there’s an entirely new way to enjoy your Mickey Ice Cream Bars at home! We’ll let you know if we spot these elsewhere! But First, a MICKEY BAR — We Found NEW Disney Snack Buttons in Disney World! Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox!

We’re basically cookie connoisseurs here at DFB. Remember when we brought you an epic comparison of the Hollywood Studios Wookiee Cookie vs the Carrot Cake Cookie?! Trolley Car Cafe Well that Carrot Cake Cookie has some NEW competition. We’re pitting Hollywood Studios’ famed Carrot Cake Cookie vs. the new holiday Red Velvet Whoopie Pie! Let’s get ready to rumble!!! First up, we’ve got the classic Carrot Cake Cookie, which continues to make a lot of our “best of” lists. Originally, we found this at Writer’s Stop then, for a while, at Sweet Spells (which has since closed), but its current preferred location is Trolley Car Cafe in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Carrot Cake Cookie in Hollywood Studios This delicious treat is made with two soft cakey carrot cake cookies with delicious cream cheese frosting in the middle. This is basically cookie nirvana if you are a fan of cream cheese frosting. It’s cake, but it’s not. It’s a cookie, but it’s not. It’s just flat out awesome. Plus it’s a hefty size so you get plenty to snack on for a while. Cream Cheese Frosting for Dayyyyssss Now let’s look at the Red Velvet Whoopie Pie, which eagle-eyed cookie pros make notice looks an awful lot like the Carrot Cake Cookie! This treat is two Red Velvet cake cookies with cream cheese frosting in the middle. There’s even powdered sugar snow on top! Red Velvet Whoopie Pie This whoopie pie is DELICIOUS. There’s a lot of red velvet cake here, but it’s the thick layer of cream cheese frosting in the middle that makes this is a win for us. This is a very rich dessert, though, making it perfect for sharing. And the colorful holiday sprinkles are just a bonus! Red Velvet Whoopie Pie When we really break it down, both cookies are so similar it’s almost like the Carrot Cake Cookie got a holiday makeover and they just forgot to add the carrot part to the cake!! You still get two big cakey cookies and all that glorious cream cheese frosting but more…merry? We dig the carrot cake flavor on the OG cookie but the heart wants what the heart wants: cream cheese frosting. And we get that with both cookies! So which cookie wins the prize? That’s like picking a favorite child, guys. Truth is BOTH are fantastic and, again, VERY similar. If you’re a diehard fan of that carrot cake flavor, the classic CCC (Carrot Cake Cookie, for the pros) is going to take the win for you. We’re going to have to go with the Red Velvet Whoopie Pie, but maybe it’s just because we’re surrounded by Christmas in Disney World right now and can’t help but get into the spirit. You can this hollier jollier cousin of the Carrot Cake Cookie now at the Trolley Car Cafe and Backlot Express for $4.99 through January 4th. Note: the Carrot Cake Cookie isn’t currently available at Trolley Car Cafe. We spoke to cast members who weren’t sure if or when it would return, but we’ll let you know. Hopefully, it just went on Christmas break and the Red Velvet Whoopie Pie is subbing in! Check out our reviews of all the 2020 holiday treats at Disney World!

After news came out that the Morocco Pavilion would be handing over control of all locations in the pavilion to Disney by the end of the year, all eyes shifted for a moment to the lavish pavilion in EPCOT’s World Showcase. All restaurants in the pavilion will soon be controlled by Disney including Tangierine Cafe, Restaurant Marrakesh, and Spice Road Table. Spice Road Table Speaking of Spice Road Table, this location has always been a bit of a hidden gem but…we haven’t BEEN here in a long time! We first reviewed it back in 2014 and haven’t written about it too much since! Let’s check back in on this comfy little location in the Morocco Pavilion and see what we’ve been missing. Atmosphere Spice Road Table includes both indoor and outdoor seating surrounded by decor that is, as Disney describes, “inspired by outdoor cafés from the Moroccan seaside.” We checked in with Mobile Dine Check-In, which has become a standard procedure at table service restaurants across Disney World. This way, you avoid the podium altogether and check-in on your phone then you are free to stroll around the pavilion while you wait for a text that your table is ready. When you first enter, you’ll be greeted by a large ornate bar with loads of deep blue and gold details. Bar Area Inside, you’ll find lots of cozy booths along the restaurant’s wall as well as free-standing tables, many of which are near the giant windows opposite the wall of booths. Spice Road Table If you opt to dine al fresco, Spice Road Table has a great patio as well. Spice Road Table Patio Since it was 1000 degrees on the day we dined, we preferred to sit indoors! If you eat inside and aren’t eyeing one of those comfy booths, ask if a window view table is available — they offer fantastic views of World Showcase lagoon. Spice Road Table VIEW When fireworks are a part of evenings in EPCOT (they’re on hold for the time being), this is one of select locations that offer a prime table service view while you dine. Spice Road Table Once we picked our jaws up from the floor at that STUNNER of a view, we scanned the QR code located on our table… Spice Road Table …to read the menu and decide what we were gonna eat! Eats Remember that bar we mentioned? They make a lot of drinks — and pretty unique ones, at that! Their Signature Cocktails and Aperitifs menu features mixed drinks, Spice Road’s housemade Sangrias, and some unique pre-dining sips from a number of countries. This is also a great location for eclectic beer-drinkers in your group. You’ll find brews from a number of Mediterranean countries here. Cocktails The restaurant also features a hearty wine list as well. The menu at Spice Road Table leans more Mediterranean than it does traditional Moroccan. You might spot influences from countries like Greece, Spain, and more. Keep in mind that, like many restaurants around Disney World, they have a slightly limited menu right now. First up, you’ll find a selection of assorted Small Plates meant for sharing with the table. Small Plates The Entrees have a relatively small but interesting selection, and the Dessert menu has a few unique options as well. Entrees While Spice Road Table has an impressive wine (and Sangria) list to order from, we opted to try one of their cocktails on this visit instead! The Mediterranean Journey is a mixture of Cointreau, Peach Vodka, and Orange Juice topped with Grenadine for $14.95. This drink was a tad on the sweet side, but whether you prefer your drinks sweet or not, it was quite delicious and strong! Mediterranean Journey The star of the show for many here is the Small Plates. If you embrace the idea of sharing a bunch of small bites with your group, you can get a really robust, fun meal out of dining here. We’ve tried most of the Small Plates here in the past so we went with the classic this time: Hummus and Olives! This signature dish comes with Traditional Hummus, Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, and Marinated Olives with Cornichons (AKA itty bitty pickles), as well as Zaatar Pita Bread to dip in all the goodness! Hummus & Olives OK, we LIKE hummus but we don’t typically go CRAZY for hummus. THIS hummus? CRAZY delicious. We found ourselves wishing we could come back here every time we visit EPCOT just to beg the restaurant to fill a big to-go cup with it so we could just keep eating it at home, in our car, at the DMV, at the gas station…you get the picture. For $12.95 this is a stellar appetizer. Mediterranean Journey with Hummus & Olives Plus, we don’t feel TOO bad loading up on hummus. It’s healthy, right?! (Sure, if you don’t count all the olive oil drizzled on top and the scoops of tahini used to make it!) It fills you up without you feeling like you’re eating something too heavy. Also, can we talk about the generous serving of bread for dipping? THANK YOU, Spice Road, for hooking us up with enough bread . So many locations give you a couple little croutons for dipping and call it a day. Here they’re like, “Here’s enough bread to feed a minivan full of people. Enjoy!” Zaatar Pita Bread that comes with the Hummus & Olives Would the main course measure up? We ordered the Coriander-crusted Rack of Lamb to find out! First of all, just appreciate how gorgeous this plate of lamb is: Coriander-crusted Rack of Lamb The lamb comes served with Saffron Basmati Rice, Roasted Tomatoes, Zucchini, and a lightly spiced (but not spicy) Au Jus for $36.95. We’ve had our fair share of meals in World Showcase over the years, and this is one of our favorite entrees we’ve had in a LONG time in EPCOT! The coriander coating had a bit of a spicy kick to it that complimented the lamb really well. If you don’t know the flavor of coriander off the top of your head, it’s kind of a bright, almost citrusy flavor. It had the perfect level of saltiness too that formed a phenomenal crust on the meat. Coriander-crusted Rack of Lamb Forewarning though — you gotta like lamb, obviously, to appreciate this entree. If you’re not a fan of the gamier flavor of this meat, maybe stick to the Mix Grill Skewers, with the more approachable combo of beef and chicken. The veggies were really fresh and well-seasoned. The rice wasn’t all that special on its own but when you combined the components on the plate, it made for a really well-rounded, flavorful bite. Coriander-crusted Rack of Lamb We weren’t done with Spice Road Table just yet! Everything was SO good, we couldn’t help ourselves but order more food . Rather than go for dessert, we hopped back over to the Small Plates menu and ordered some Fried Calamari. Fried Calamari The calamari itself was well seasoned and was the perfect texture. It was not at all chewy and the breading gave it a nice bite and crunch! The breading also had a fair bit of seasoning to it as well, which was unexpected and nice. This dish comes served with spicy Harissa and Caper Aïoli Sauces. For $13.95, this was another home run dish. Like the lamb though, you gotta be into eating squid to enjoy this. Fried Calamari That gives Spice Road Table a solid 4 out of 4 on the scorecard. Not too shabby for a location that hasn’t even had the chance to stand the test of time like other iconic World Showcase restaurants! Nosh or Not Consider dining at Spice Road Table if: You’re big into Mediterranean-inspired food and tapas You want your dinner to come with a side of a jaw-dropping view. You’re interested in trying something new and breaking your old habits of visiting the same World Showcase restaurants over and over again. You may want to skip Spice Road Table if: You have pickier eaters in your party; while the food here is STELLAR, it may be a turn-off to those looking for safer bets like burgers or pizza. You want your meal to be quick and on-the-go so you’re back exploring the parks lickety-split. You’re on a tight food budget. While this location is far from the most expensive options in the park, if you’re a party of adults that are of drinking age, the bill could add up pretty fast. Overall OK, first a bit of bad news: as of right now, reservations can’t be made at Spice Road Table after December 9th. It’s possible this could be due to the transition over to Disney operations (remember, they announced it would happen before the end of the year!). Tangierine Cafe and Restaurant Marrakesh are both currently closed, so closing down Spice Road Table for a time may be necessary as they hand things over. We’ll keep an eye on this location to see when they resume accepting reservations — we want to get back soon for more hummus . We left scratching our heads wondering, “why don’t we eat at Spice Road Table more often?!” Our meal was outstanding. It was one of the best meals we’ve had at a table service restaurant in EPCOT in a long time. That is some HIGH praise considering World Showcase has iconic eats like Via Napoli, Le Cellier, and Chefs de France. We admit we’ve been guilty of overlooking Spice Road Table in favor of the more well-known heavy hitters in EPCOT in the past, but this meal showed us that this restaurant deserves more love. Between the stunning views and equally memorable food, it should be a top contender when we decide where we want to eat on our EPCOT days. The food has more exotic flavors than you’ll find at most table service spots but that’s part of the appeal. The unique Mediterranian spices and combinations here are what make this spot special. This isn’t where you go for a burger or chicken nuggets. You come here for an experience in the flavors of other cultures. And that, right there, is a big part of why World Showcase is here in the first place. Click here to read a recent review of another one of our long-time favorite table service restaurants at EPCOT!

Fall is definitely a good time to be a fan of all things pumpkin! Salted Caramel Pumpkin Pie Shake We’ve seen a ton of Christmas-inspired treats pop up in Disney World today. But Thanksgiving got some love, too! We spotted a few seasonal snacks available at ABC Commissary in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, like the Frozen Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate and the Spiked Hot Cocoa Flight. Frozen Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate But there’s no sipping required for this snack! We snagged the Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake, which consists of pumpkin pie cheesecake with vanilla whipped cream and a gingersnap crumble. Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake As soon as we took our first bite, we noticed that this is one of the more heavily pumpkin-flavored items we’ve tried! Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake It was super sweet and rich, so we would say this treat is sharable! If you’re a huge fan of pumpkin and cheesecake, this might be the perfect dessert for you. But if you’re looking for something on the lighter or less sweet side, you might want to opt for something else, like the Holiday Tree Mousse! Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake If you’d like to give the Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake a try, you can snag it at ABC Commissary for $5.49. Happy holidays and happy snacking, DFB friends!

We’ve tried soooo many holiday snacks around Disney World today! Mickey’s Holiday Cookie We’ve found a ton of sweet treats and desserts to make our holidays merry and bright. But now, we’re ready to SPICE THINGS UP! We’re heading into Magic Kingdom for this holiday menu item — more specifically, Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe! Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Lounge at Magic Kingdom Cosmic Ray’s has added a menu item which is intriguingly named “Spice Up Your Holiday.” So, what is this spicy holiday exclusive? We’re glad you asked! It’s a spicy chicken sandwich with sriracha aïoli and pickle slaw topped with a Santa Mickey brioche bun and it comes served with fries on the side! Spice Up Your Holiday Can we first please just address how cute that Santa Mickey brioche bun is?? Santa Mickey! Okay, now that we’ve got that out of the way, let’s dig in! We absolutely LOVED the pickle slaw, and we think it would be a hit even for those who aren’t big fans of pickles! But if you are totally pickle-averse you can request it without the slaw. Spice Up Your Holiday The chicken was nice and crispy and it did have an actual kick of spice, which can be hard to find in Disney food! So, if you’re really not into spicy food, this sandwich might not be for you! Spice Up Your Holiday The flavor reminded us of a spicy chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A, and we were super impressed with the sandwich overall. Although we do wish that the chicken breast was a bit larger since it didn’t quite reach the edge of the bun and we’d take all the delicious spicy chicken we can get! Spice Up Your Holiday We’re also a big fan of the fries at Cosmic Ray’s — they have some extra seasoning that set them apart from other “standard” quick service fries around Disney World! Spice Up Your Holiday Overall, we’d say this holiday exclusive is a winner in our books! If you’d like to “Spice Up Your Holiday,” you can snag this meal for $11.99 at Cosmic Ray’s. May your holidays be merry and…spice! Review! This Belle-inspired holiday treat is super Insta-worthy (and delish)! Don't Miss Out on Any Disney World Fun This Holiday Season!

We found some Christmas items at a spot that doesn’t ALWAYS have holiday exclusives! BaseLine Tap House Items BaseLine Tap House in Disney’s Hollywood Studios offers not one but TWO holiday exclusives this year — one to eat and one to drink! Let’s start with the treat! We’re trying out the Apple Bourbon Creme Brulee for $11. BaseLine Exclusives Menu This treat is pretty much what it sounds like! It’s a classic creme brulee with the twist of the flavorful apple and the kick of the bourbon. Apple Bourbon Creme Brulee So, this treat IS pricy (so much so, it’s hard to say if it’s worth it!) but it was one of the yummier things we had today! We love, love, LOVE the apple and the bourbon flavor adds some nice warmth. Apple Bourbon Creme Brulee On to that drink! It’s the Christmas on the Beach for $15. Christmas on the Beach This drink is made with Parrot Bay Coconut Rum and Bols Blue Curacao with pineapple and cranberry juice served with a souvenir glow cube. Christmas on the Beach It’s definitely good and Base Line knows how to pour a strong drink. We’re a little tired of blue curaçao in Disney World drinks, but it’s tasty and we loved the cranberry flavor! Christmas on the Beach You can find these two items at BaseLine Tap House so head on over if they sound up your alley! Keep an eye on DFB for MORE holiday treat reviews!

Gaston’s Tavern is often home to some tasty treats. Gaston’s Tavern We swung by this favorite Fantasyland spot today to try out another holiday treat to add to the nice (or naughty) list. So, how does this Belle-inspired treat stand up to others like Mickey’s Holiday Cookie and the Chocolate Chestnut Pinecone? We’re trying out Belle’s Enchanted Christmas Tree and right away we’re LOVING its very-fun look. Belle’s Enchanted Christmas Tree This treat is a stack of almond macarons (the green) with cranberry orange cream (the red), and a yellow M&M right on top! Belle’s Enchanted Christmas Tree And how does it taste? This treat is SO good! It’s not too sugary or sweet and we would see it’s definitely very festive. We’d recommend this to anyone, especially those who like macarons and these flavors! Belle’s Enchanted Christmas Tree You can find this treat at Gaston’s Tavern for $5.49!

The holidays have officially arrived in the Disney World parks! Tower of Terror Holiday Projections While we’ve been enjoying the festive decor, we’ve spent most of the day getting our hands on alllll of the holiday snacks we could find! And this latest treat was just too cute to pass up! This holiday season, Backlot Express is home to several holiday treats, including the Red Velvet Whoopie Pie, the Frozen Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate, and the adorable Holiday Tree Mousse! Holiday Tree Mousse This pretty little treat is made with milk chocolate chia mousse on an almond financier cake and a butter cookie. And before we even tasted this snack, we were struck by how cute it is! Seriously, just look at that little tree standing proud next to its massive (but definitely less edible) counterpart! Holiday Tree Mousse Now, let’s talk taste — there wasn’t much flavor in the mousse, but the texture was perfectly light and fluffy. The almond cake was our favorite part, and we would have loved for there to be even more of an almond kick to the flavor! But if you’re looking for a dessert with a light flavor that’s not overly sweet, this could be right up your alley. Holiday Tree Mousse This dessert is pretty small, so we thought the price of $5.49 was a little bit steep. But hey, it’s pretty! If you’d like to snag the Holiday Tree Mousse, you can find it at Backlot Express. Happy holidays, DFB friends! REVIEW! This cocktail is perfect for holiday nights in Disney World!

From holiday themed character dining to Christmas cavalcades, we’ve been having lots of festive fun in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! Tower of Terror Holiday Projections We’ve also had our fair share of holiday snacks and drinks all around the park, and today we got to try one more — this one’s a boozy and festive treat! Rosie’s All American Cafe has a number of holiday drinks available, and we tried quite a few of them today including the Frozen Winterberry Margarita with a souvenir Glow Cube! Frozen Winterberry Margarita This drink is priced at $18 and made with Patrón Tequila, Sweet-and-Sour, Cranberry Juice, and Wildberry topped with Blueberry Boba Pearls served with a souvenir Mickey Glow Cube. It’s pretty similar to the Winterberry Margarita we had in Hollywood Studios last year, except this one has the blueberry boba pearls and that fun glow cube, and is missing the Triple Sec. We LOVE this glow cube because it actually jingles! Frozen Winterberry Margarita Overall, we thought this drink was pretty tasty!! It was actually the strongest tasting out of the 2 alcoholic holiday drinks we tried at Rosie’s. We REALLY loved the strong cranberry flavor in this drink! It definitely had us feeling like the holiday season has officially begun. Frozen Winterberry Margarita Were the boba balls on top necessary? Maybe not, at least in our opinion. But if you love boba balls, then that might be something you’ll enjoy. The drink was tasty, festive, and fun — definitely a good option for the holiday season (especially for fun holiday photos).

We’ve had a blast in Disney’s Hollywood Studios throughout the day, waving at Santa and sipping on holiday drinks at Starbucks! Holiday Tree Mousse While it’s been a day full of sugar, spice, and everything nice in Disney World, we’re taking a break from the desserts and grabbing a drink (or two) during our visit to Hollywood Studios! As Christmas lights are hung up around the parks, the Hollywood Brown Derby Lounge is showing off its own shining star with the Hollywood Lights Cocktail! Hollywood Brown Derby Sign The GORGEOUS drink is mixed up with Captain Morgan Spiced Rum, Parrot Bay Coconut Rum, Pineapple Juice, and a splash of Cranberry Juice. And, there’s a glow cube inside to make sure your drink looks Instagrammable at any time of the day! Hollywood Lights The Hollywood Lights might be around for Christmas, but it wasn’t as Christmas-y as we would have liked a themed drink for the season! Although we think that more cranberry and less pineapple flavors would have helped with that, we still enjoyed the sip from the Brown Derby regardless. It’s Not a Disney Drink without a Glow Cube! There was a hint of tartness to the Hollywood Lights that made it a lot less sweet than other drinks that we’ve spotted around the park today, including the Christmas on the Beach! Hollywood Lights Although we think that there are other better drinks you can try at the Brown Derby Lounge, the Hollywood Lights is a fun sip for $15 if you’re looking for something refreshing in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! As we wrap up our first day of “Christmas” in Disney World, we’ll be sure to give you a look at everything you can expect to find in the parks.
