What's New at Disney's Animal Kingdom: Fossil Fun Games Reopens, the Minnie Mouse Ear Box Arrives, and a BIG Merch Sale!

We just got back from Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World and we have a few updates for you!

Mickey and Minnie Character Cavalcade at Animal Kingdom

We noticed some new merch, food, and newly reopened part of the theme park! Come see what’s new at Animal Kingdom!

Animal Kingdom Food Update

Creature Comforts

A few days ago, we reviewed the Instagram-worthy Scar Cupcake! This devious villain cupcake was so delightfully delish we headed back to Creature Comforts to see if it was still there. Scar has certainly made Starbucks his kingdom because these cupcakes are still in stock!

However, its eems like Scar ran Timon and Pumbaa out of town because the Bugs n’ Grubs cupcake was no longer here!

Fossil Fun Games

Fossil Fun Games opened two carnival game booths with new prizes! The games weren’t operational when the majority of the theme park reopened in July. Bronto Score and Comet Crashers are welcoming back gamers again!
