Welcome back to the world of Hollywood glam, Toy Story, and Star Wars!
We visited Disney’s Hollywood Studios to take in the last moments of Christmas at Disney World. We found some new merchandise, found a strange holiday treat makeover, and spotted Goofy in a new outfit! Step inside the glitz and glitter of a bustling young movie town at the height of its golden age!
Hollywood Studios Food Update
Trolley Car Cafe
The Chocolate Chestnut Pinecone was looking a little…off this week. The holiday treat is usually a photogenic treat that looks like a fresh pinecone dusted in snow. For one reason or another, the pinecone had a green look! The treat didn’t look like it’s normal Instagram-worthy self. Unfortunately, the treat looked a little moldy!
The pinecone was made with the same ingredients…it just didn’t look like it was ready to fall off the tree quite yet. Hopefully, the old toasty brown pinecone will return!
See more pics of the Chocolate Chestnut Pinecone (But Make it Green) here!
Popcorn Carts
There’s still time to grab your Christmas popcorn buckets and Mickey Jingle Bell Sippers! We spotted the holiday souvenirs in various popcorn carts around Hollywood Studios. Get your buckets now before they disappear with the Christmas decorations!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
While we’re on the subject, the gorgeous Paddy Frog sipper is still available at Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo and Ronto Roasters. This is one of the coolest sippers available at Disney World right now…and it comes with a hidden surprise inside!
Hollywood Studios Character Update
Holiday Cavalcade
Santa Claus is coming to town! Wait, he looks a little different. That’s Santa Goofy!! The Santa Claus Merry Motorcade started out as normal with the elves carrying presents down Main Street. When Santa’s car arrived, Goofy was sitting in his spot!
Santa must have been tuckered out from Christmas. We didn’t mind seeing Goofy instead!
See more photos of Santa Goofy riding in style here!
Hollywood Studios Merchandise Update
Sunset Club Couture
We spotted some fun jewelry at Hollywood Studios today! The necklaces and bracelets look like they are designed for little kiddos. (We won’t tell if you want to rock these jewels though!) We found this Minnie necklace with attachable charms for $19.99…
…and a matching braided bracelet for $14.99.
You can gift your mom with this Minnie Mouse necklace…
…or give two of your BFFs these Mickey necklaces. Both sets cost $19.99.
Then there’s the dangling Mickey, Minnie, and heart necklace…
…and another featuring the castle, teacup, and carousel horse. Both necklaces are $14.99.
Celebrity 5 & 10
The Reigning Cats and Dogs collection has arrived in Disney World and online! We spotted two of the new items including the “Stay Pawsitive” keychain…
…and the “Cat Lady” keychain for $7.99 each.
This is just a sampling from the collection. There’s SO much more where this came from!
Check out more items from the Reigning Cats and Dogs collection here!
The Darkroom
You want more pet merchandise?? We’ve got one more for you. We found this cozy Mickey Mouse sweater for your doggo. The sweater comes in various sizes for pups of all shapes! The dog sweater is $44.99.
It was a day full of special appearances, strange treats, and pet merchandise! We’ll be back at Hollywood Studios to see what else is new real soon!
