We’re taking a spin around Disney World’s work-in-progress park!
EPCOT
That’s right, we spent the day in EPCOT yesterday and we’re here to bring you an update on everything NEW! Here are all the latest changes in food, construction, and merchandise!
Before we dive into the news we’ve got a bit of a crowds update. Well, there were none! EPCOT was pretty darn empty yesterday.
No Frozen Ever After Line
We even spotted a 10-minute posted wait for Frozen Ever After and WALKED RIGHT ON. They didn’t even have the entire queue open!

EPCOT Food Updates
Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie
We had a little fun and tried a few of the bread options at Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie including the Bisque de Homard (Lobster Bisque in a Bread Bowl) for $5.75, the Croissant for $2.90 and the Full Baguette for $3.10. We tried to pick a winner — but it was all delicious!
BREAD
Can you believe that Baguette is just $3? What a DEAL.

Eats at the EPCOT Experience
Over at Eats at the EPCOT Experience, we noted that pizza was back on the menu. This is a great spot to grab some easy and basic eats when you need to fuel up in Future World.

Kringla Bakeri og Kafe
On our last visit to EPCOT, we swung by Kringla Bakeri og Kafe to try the new Kransekake cookie. At the time, a Cast Member told us they didn’t have it and gave us the Almond Ring Cookie.

Well, it turns out the Almond Ring Cookie IS the Kransekake!

EPCOT Construction Updates
Harmonious
When we first arrived at EPCOT in the morning, we noticed something pretty interesting on the barges for the upcoming Harmonious nighttime spectacular. One of the barges had a grid pattern lit up on it!
Harmonious Barges
This tech appears pretty similar to that of projection mapping which is used for other nighttime spectaculars such as Happily Ever After in Magic Kingdom.

EPCOT International Festival of the Arts
Expression Section is a fun offering at the EPCOT International Festival of the Arts where guests can participate in a MASSIVE paint-by-number mural. Today, there was a new mural for guests to paint!
Expression Section
We also spotted some new chalk art including a Goofy piece…
