It’s no secret that we love trying new things at DFB. And there’s nothing like a little heat to add extra flavor, right? Spicy Kenyan Vegan Corn and White Beans with Pigeon Peas, Quinoa & Ancient Grains Medley and Kachumbari Slaw (Plant-based) When it comes to heat, we’ve tried a variety of spicy foods at Disney World, from spicy steak bowls to spicy cheese sticks to spicy margaritas. So when Blaze Fast Fire’d Pizza announced its Blazin’ Hot Chicken Pizza, we knew it was calling our name! We headed over to Disney Springs to try it out. LOOK AT THIS BABY. And yes, we got a SECRET menu side salad, too! Blazin’ Hot Chicken Pizza and Side Salad The pizza is made with ghost pepper chicken meatballs, scorpion pepper-infused power greens slaw, and a Franks RedHot finish. So that sounds pretty spicy, right? And Cast Members even recommended we get ranch dressing on the side to take some of the heat from the pizza’s flavor. So we’ll admit, we were a little scared to bite into it! Blazin’ Hot Chicken Pizza But we did — for science! And honestly, we didn’t think it was that spicy! By Disney standards, it’s certainly got a kick, but we happen to love spicy food! So we were very into it. We also loved the slaw and wished we had asked for more as was also recommended to us. It adds a great crunch to each slice. Blazin’ Hot Chicken Pizza We also ordered the Caprese Salad with Ovalini Mozzarella on the side. Now, this wasn’t on the posted menu at Blaze, so you will need to ask for it. and it was pretty tasty, too. It was super fresh (very important with a salad) and had HUGE chunks of cheese (very important to us!). The balsamic glaze dressing was also yummy. Caprese Salad with Ovalini Mozzarella So if you’re afraid to try the Blazin’ Hot Chicken Pizza and don’t mind a “little” heat, we don’t think it’s that spicy, so go for it! The pizza is $10.45 and the salad is $5.95. We’ll be sure to keep our eyes peeled for more spicy food, and when we find it, we’ll let you know what we think! Review!

We have seen Disney join or kickstart quite a few environmentally friendly initiatives within the last few years. ©Disneyland Paris Now, Disneyland Paris is launching an ambitious solar energy initiative…in one of their parking lots. Through a co-investment with Urbasolar, Disneyland Paris has announced the phased development of one of the largest solar canopy plants in all of Europe. This new development will be located in the resort’s main guest parking lot and “will contribute to the reduction of Val d’Europe local territory greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by approximatively 750 tons of CO2 per year.” On top of this, it will provide additional guest enhancements like shade and shelter from sunlight, rain, or snow. ©Disneyland Paris The President of Disneyland Paris, Natacha Rafalski, shared that “Environmental innovation and stewardship are a tradition that began with Walt Disney himself, and this ambitious solar power project is the latest in our commitment to the environment at Disneyland Paris.” “It is our responsibility as a business and leading tourist destination to contribute to the long-term sustainability of our resort and the region through environmentally responsible practices.” This development will encompass 42 acres of solar panels, “using 67,500 solar panels for a production of 31 gigawatt-hours per year (GWh/year).” This won’t only be allocated to the resort, but it is technically enough energy to account for 17% of the resort’s energy consumption! Wow! Wouldn’t it be awesome if we could see something like this in more Disney locations as well? Once the project is completed, a section will light up in the shape of a Mickey head. ©Disneyland Paris Construction began back in July and is expected to be completed in 2023. A first milestone for the first phase is set to be completed in spring 2021. You can learn more about the project in the video below. We will continue to keep you updated on this as progress is shared. See how Disneyland Paris is celebrating Halloween here. Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox!

Just over a year ago we first discovered our sweet, gooey, beloved Werther’s Original Caramel made fresh daily at Karamell-Küche in EPCOT’s German had gotten an adult twist. Boozy caramels were born. Karamell-Küche We laughed. We cried. We ate a lot of caramel that day. It was a glorious day. Well, friends, the caramel-scented angels over there have worked their magic once again and given us a REMIX of the boozy caramel flight. Now we can chew our booze in four all NEW flavors! The OG version of this flight featured four caramels flavored each with brandy, whipped cream vodka, apricot brandy, and a cherry liqueur. Alcohol-Infused Caramels They were a delight. They took that scrummy caramel and made it even more interesting and flavorful. FYI — there’s not enough booze in these guys to get you tipsy, but use your best judgment if you choose to share them! So, back to the present. These guys got a REMIX BABY! Check em out: Boozy Caramel Flight Remix You’ll find these cuties nestled in littler individual serving trays in the Karamell-Küche cases. Ignore the siren song of the popcorn and the caramel cupcakes (or not. We have zero willpower in here because it’s all so good.)! Boozy Caramels The flavors are much more unique than the first go-round! First up, Mojito. Mojito Caramel This was a great balance of sweet caramel with a hint of both mint and lime. The rum flavor wasn’t very pronounced, but it was an overall really well-rounded flavor that paired surprisingly well with caramel! The garnish is a drizzle of white chocolate. Next up was Tequila. Tequila Caramel Points for creativity here but we were on the fence with this one. It had a kick of salt to it, which was nice (salt+caramel=perfection, basically), but the tequila flavor was a bit odd. If you love the taste of tequila, this will likely be a hit with you. We enjoyed it, but it was definitely the most unique of the bunch. The garnish here is a sliver of lime jelly slice. Next was Chocolate Cherry Blossom. Chocolate Cherry Blossom Caramel This was the only one dipped in chocolate, and that flavor was the most prominent that we tasted. We didn’t get too much of a hit of cherry/cherry blossom from this, but it had a nice flavor overall. Definitely the richest of the squares! The garnish is a tiny bit of dried cherry. Finally, we tried Limoncello. Limoncello Caramel We love lemon and all things tart, so mix that flavor with that delish caramel and this was basically perfection. If we could buy a slab of this alone, we would. It was surprisingly tart, creamy, and sweet all at the same time. SO good. The garnish was a little sugared lemon gummy piece. These flights are a really fun snack to share between friends. The variety and unique flavors make a fun reason for a pitstop as you’re making your way around World Showcase. The flavors of this second edition flight are definitely more unique than the first set, but honestly, we liked them both. If we had to choose, this newer version gets the edge because of that delightful Limoncello square. For $6.49 this is a nicely sized snack we’re happy to get again!

Keep an eye out for Queen Anna and Elsa in the “Frozen Holiday Promenade,” and Mickey Mouse and his pals making merry on the “Mickey and Friends Holiday World Tour.” And we can’t forget about Santa Claus! When Santa visits EPCOT during this festive time of year, he’ll take a grand horse-drawn tour around World Showcase, calling out happy holiday wishes to all.

Although Downtown Disney has reopened, the rest of Disneyland Resort remains closed, and could stay that way for some time. The Disneyland Hotel Previously, Disneyland Resort hotels were only accepting reservations starting on November 1st, but it seems that this date has changed again. After searching on the Disneyland website for two-night reservations, we found that all three of the Disneyland Resort hotels were unavailable on November 15th. Disneyland Resort Hotel Booking 11-15-2020 ©Disney However, as of November 16th, all three Disneyland Resort hotels have availability. Disneyland Resort Hotel Booking 11-16-2020 ©Disney This, however, has changed previously and is likely to keep getting pushed back, especially considering that Disneyland does not yet have a solid reopening date. As always, we’ll keep an eye on the situation and let you know of any updates. When Could Disneyland ACTUALLY Open Based on California’s Reopening Guidelines?

2020 will be remembered for a lot of big things. It’s the year everything — including Disney World — shut down, the year we saw never before seen mask mandates in the park, and, for fans of the Holiday Season, the year we won’t get to see all of the elaborate gingerbread displays we’ve looked forward to each year at Disney World. Grand Floridian’s Gingerbread House But there is at least ONE gingerbread display we know we can look forward to checking out this year (and it’s a favorite of ours!). In a world of massive Grand Floridian gingerbread houses and Beach Club gingerbread carousels, there are a few equally impressive smaller displays hidden around the parks and resorts. One that Disney has now confirmed is returning is the gingerbread display in the American Adventure in EPCOT in years past. But it has a catch this year. American Adventure Gingerbread Display You WON’T find this incredibly patriotic Capitol City Gingerbread Display in the American Adventure this year. Instead, it will be housed over in World Showplace. The display will be slightly different than last year’s and will feature the United States Capitol Building, the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, and a 5-foot tall Washington Monument! United States Capitol This display is a favorite of ours to check out in past years, so we’re glad to see it making an appearance once again. Be sure to swing by World Showplace where, aside from sampling items at some of the newly announced Festival Booths, you can check out Disney’s pastry chefs’ little sweet salute to America (in cookie form).

We’ve loved seeing our favorite characters ride (or in poor Elsa’s case…WALK by herself!) around World Showcase in EPCOT. Elsa in EPCOT. Someone Give This Girl a RIDE! While we didn’t see a Halloween themed Promenade make its way around World Showcase, we now know what festive character experiences we’ll see this Holiday Season! We already know that the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays will be making its return to the park this season. In fact, we just shared all the booths we can expect to see when it opens (we’re coming for you Warm Brown Sugar Stuffed Pretzel with Soft-Serve Ice Cream and Chocolate Sauce and Sweet Potato Casserole Funnel Cake!). Now, we know WHO we can spot while we’re eating way too many awesome Holiday foods. Mickey and Minnie in EPCOT Santa Claus Promenade – Come see Old St. Nick take a grand tour around World Showcase in his horse-drawn carriage calling out happy holiday wishes to all. Mickey and Friends Holiday World Tour – Keep your eyes peeled for Mickey Mouse and his friends, dressed in their seasonal finest and waving to pals like you throughout the World Showcase. (Note, the current version of Mickey’s Promenade will run until November 27th, when their festive gear will come out!) Frozen Holiday Promenade – The Holiday spirit is in the air as Queen Anna and Elsa ring in the season at Epcot, journeying from country to country and waving to their fans along the way. (You can still see Anna and Elsa in their current Promenade until November 27th!) Additionally, the Princess Promenade we’ve seen roll around will continue on through the Holidays. Princess Promenade in EPCOT That’ll be so cool to spot Santa making his way around World Showcase this season! Maybe if we play our cards right, he’ll shout out if we made it on the nice list this year. Here’s hoping! If you want to see more of what’s coming to EPCOT this Holiday season, check out more info about the RETURNING Holiday Cookie Stroll, the new scavenger hunt in EPCOT hosted by the one and only Olaf this year, and more!

Wow, the EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays news is pouring in! ©Disney We already shared that the ALL of the 2020 booths and the fact that the Cookie Stroll will be returning. Now, we’re back to share info about a brand new offering — Olaf’s Holiday Tradition Expedition! This new scavenger hunt will replace the Chip & Dale’s Christmas Tree Spree Scavenger Hunt. OK. OK. Get ready because this sounds like such an adorable holiday scavenger hunt concept. Guests can go on a hunt around World Showcase looking for holiday traditions that Olaf has gathered — and lost — along the way. Olaf in the Royal Sommerhuas According to Disney, “Olaf can be spotted sledding all around World Showcase, collecting new and interesting holiday traditions to share with Anna and Elsa. Unfortunately, he’s had a bit of a bumpy ride…and has misplaced some traditions during his journey.” In order to help our pal Olaf out, guests can purchase a Scavenger Hunt map and stickers at locations like Mouse Gear, World Traveler, Port of Entry, Stroller Rental locations, International Gateway, and at the merchandise cart in Canada for $7.99. Once Upon a Christmastime Parade So what will you be doing on this hunt exactly? Well, guests will search for Olaf in each pavilion and then match the tradition on his sleigh to the location sticker on the scavenger hunt map! Once you find ALL the traditions, guests can visit Disney Traders, Mouse Gear, or World Traver to redeem the map for a special gift!! We can’t wait to see what it is. More news is coming in, so stay tuned or even MORE Festival of the Holidays details!! Check out ALL of the 2020 Festival of the Holidays booth locations here!

Looks like Disney-fans are excited for 2020 to be over, and we don’t blame them. The week of the New Year tends to be one of the busiest times for Walt Disney World Resort, and it seems that this year may be no different — even if that business is muted by the capacity limitations. Magic Kingdom Fireworks We’ve thought a little bit about what New Years Eve will look like in the parks this year and we’re sure it will be very different, but that’s not stopping folks from booking up the Disney Park Pass reservations! When we checked in on the Disney Park Pass reservations in Disney World today, we noticed that Disney’s Hollywood Studios is now completely unavailable on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day for Theme Park Tickets Guests and Disney Resort Guests. ©Disney All four parks are still available for Annual Passholders, but it seems that the holidays are still a pretty big draw this year. Perhaps folks want to say bye to 2020 with a ride on Rise of the Resistance! ©Disney We’ll be keeping an eye on availability around the New Year so stay tuned! We might start to see other parks fill up soon! Click here to learn more about Disney Park Passes! Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox! Click here to Subscribe!

It may be October, but that will not stop Disney from beginning their winter festivities! Holiday Bag Disney announced the dates for the Festival of the Holidays back in September, but you can start celebrating early with these SWEET new Peppermint Minnie Ears! Last year we saw several holiday Minnie ears including gingerbread ears, fleece buffalo plaid ears, and even peppermint candy ears. This year, the Peppermint Minnie Ears are back with a bit of a makeover! Peppermint Ears These ears are ALL blinged out with red sequins and faux fur! They’re giving us more Santa vibes than peppermint — either way, they’re mega festive. This is our favorite part — the puffy bow is bright green sequins with a peppermint candy center! Peppermint Ears Bow The sides are striped green and white sequins like a green candy cane! Peppermint Ears Detail In comparison, here’s the Peppermint (or “Candy Cane Cuties”) from last year. These were practically screaming at you “Hey, we love peppermint!” with the bit peppermint ears: Peppermint Candy Minnie Ears These may not be as aggressively PEPPERMINT as the ears from last year but they’re still a perfect addition to your Christmas Disney look! It’s a tough choice between these and the new version of the Gingerbread Ears we also found! Christmas Ears We found both of these for $29.99 at Wonderful World of Memories in Disney Springs, but we expect they’ll be available at merchandise locations all around the parks soon. These peppermint ears have us wishing for snow in Florida (we can dream right?). We will keep you updated on the latest Christmas merch in Disney World!

Savor the authentic flavors of Spanish cuisine at Jaleo by Jose Andres, try a twist on American classics at City Works Eatery & Pour House, or indulge in scrumptious snacks at a variety of locations across Disney Springs. And in Anaheim California, you will find plenty of great food and shopping at Downtown Disney District. Look for the bewitching Ursula candied apple at Marceline’s Confectionary, or the yummy Pumpkin Crazy Shake at Black Tap Burgers and Shakes. And tons of festive Halloween home décor at shops across Downtown Disney. Happy Howl-o-ween! *This was a special spooky occasion. Dogs are not allowed at Disney Springs. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DisneyParks/~4/KKn-srkZOOEView the full article

Earlier this year, major cruise companies had to completely shutter sailings in response to the spread of the global health crisis. ©Carnival With Disney Cruise Line sailings currently suspended and a no-sail order from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention through the end of the month, cruising has been more or less up in the air. Now, Carnival Cruise Line has become among the first to announce a return to sailing in the U.S. — and it’s before the end of the year. According to industry magazine Cruise Week, Carnival Cruise Line is set to resume cruising on December 1st in the U.S. A recent order on environmental compliance of ships will allow this plan to continue. ©Carnival In a statement, Carnival Cruise Line noted, “Our highest responsibility and top priorities are compliance, environmental protection and the health, safety and well-being of our guests, crew, shoreside employees, and the people and communities our ships visit.” ©Carnival As of right now, the Disney Cruise Line has suspended all sailings through at least mid-December and at this time it is unclear whether Carnival’s sailings indicate a return for Disney cruises anytime soon.

A lot has changed at Disney World since its reopening. One of the biggest changes is that guests must now make advance park pass reservations, in addition to having a valid Disney World ticket, to visit a park on any given day. Magic Kingdom To do this, guests must go online and choose which park they plan on visiting for each day of their trip. And before now, this could only be done via the Disney World website. However, guests can now access park pass reservations through the My Disney Experience app on their mobile phones. When guests load up the app, the home page has a link to “Make a Park Reservation” under “Plan Your Next Visit.” My Disney Experience App Make Park Pass Reservation ©Disney The shortcut menu of the app also features a link to “Make a Park Reservation.” My Disney Experience App Make Park Pass Reservation ©Disney However, clicking on either of those links still takes you to the mobile version of the Disney World website, so in-app functionality for making park passes still isn’t available. But this does make the process a little easier if you’re trying to make park pass reservations on your phone. As always, we’ll keep you updated if this changes!
