Disney4me Posted January 16, 2021 Report Posted January 16, 2021 What time is it? COOKIE TIME! Gideon’s Bakehouse Okay, maybe Saturday morning isn’t usually cookie time, but it IS when it’s the Gideon’s Bakehouse GRAND OPENING in Disney Springs. This beloved cookie supplier soft-opened the location last month, and now we’re celebrating the full opening of the restaurant at a special event! Today is a very special day for Gideon’s Bakehouse and they are pulling out ALL the stops to thank customers for dropping by to celebrate the occasion. We’re talking free merchandise, free treats, and LIMITED-EDITION COOKIES! Gideon’s Bakehouse Grand Opening We arrived at Disney Springs bright and early, and sure enough, TONS of folks had the same idea. Orange Garage opened at 9AM and there was a line to get in even before that time. Gideon’s Bakehouse Grand Opening Once we headed in through the temperature check, it was pretty clear that LOTS of folks were headed over to Gideon’s Bakehouse. Gideon’s Bakehouse Line By the time we made it over, there was already a line. Remember — Gideon’s didn’t open until 10AM! So, this many folks were there a full hour early. It was only a short period of time before the physical queue had filled and Gideon’s employees came out to start up the Virtual Queue.

Having got to Disney Springs right at 9AM, we only waited about an hour. Gideon’s Line But, IMO, the wait was worth it! As we mentioned, Gideon’s is celebrating by giving out some free and limited edition merchandise. We got to snag a free commemorative Limited Edition 11×14 Art Print of the Gideon’s Gargoyle… Gideon’s Bakehouse Gargoyle Print …that’s SIGNED and numbered by artist Michael Reyes. There are only 1,000 of these prints available and only one given out per transaction. Gideon’s Bakehouse is on ! We love the decor in here. pic.twitter.com/BjjKJoaJKK — AJ Wolfe (@DisneyFoodBlog) January 16, 2021 Did you know the team at Gideon’s has uncovered the name of the gargoyle? According to Gideon’s, “Legend has it that if you can correctly pronounce his name, you will gain his protection. I know it. Will you?” Spoiler alert, but his name is Agubadijadzs. Whew! That’s a mouthful. Gideon’s Bakehouse Grand Opening Speaking of free stuff, the first 250 transactions ALSO received a free Peanut Butter Buttercream Dip. Which is a GIFT — because it’s SO delicious. Peanut Butter Buttercream Dip The main event (and probably a BIG part of the reason so many folks are here) is that Gideon’s has FIVE limited-edition cookies available today. Usually, there are only one or two. To make sure folks get some good cookie options, the cookie-per-person limit has been raised from six cookies to 10 COOKIES today “for the first (and maybe last) time ever.” Gideon’s Bakehouse Today, you can pick up the Frankenstein, the Santa’s White Christmas, the Coffee Cake Cookie (beyond just the morning!), the Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirl, and the Coffee Toffee Chocolate Chip.
