Welcome back, DFB Friends!

Tree of Life

We spent a day wandering around Disney’s Animal Kingdom, looking for updates and seeing what’s new! So here is the latest!

Animal Kingdom Food Updates

Zuri’s Sweet Shop

It is Valentine’s Day season and we are seeing Valentine’s Day cupcakes everywhere! So we’re not massively surprised that a Valentine’s Day Red Velvet Cupcake turned up at Zuri’s Sweet Shop. This one is dressed up to look like Minnie Mouse!

Valentine’s Day Red Velvet Cupcake

This cupcake is available for $5.19.

Animal Kingdom Merchandise Updates

Island Mercantile

The super fashionable Pearl Minnie Ears are here! We love the quilted details on these ears, along with the pretty Mickey-shaped pearls! And it’s all tied together with a tweed bow!

Pearl Minnie Ears

You can grab these ears for $29.99.

Riverside Depot

We found some nice Sticky Note Collections at Riverside Depot. There’s one with the princesses, Mickey and friends, Pixar, and even Disneyland!

The poisonous trinket trays are turning up everywhere now! We previously saw one (that still doesn’t really look like a trinket tray to us) at Magic Kingdom with Cinderella Castle, but now we’ve found one at Animal Kingdom with the Tree of Life on it.

Tree of Life Trinket Tray

At least this one actually looks like a trinket tray! But it still comes with the same warning: “may poison food.” So if you buy it for $17.99, don’t put any food on it.

We Have NO Idea What This Piece of Disney Merch Is For…But We Bought It! 🙃

Windtraders

There are some new Banshee Metal Earth puzzles available now! You can get either a blue or purple banshee!

We also spotted the Woodsprite Glow Toy in Pandora! This isn’t new, but we haven’t seen it in a while.

We can’t help it — we’re suckers for things that light up!

Discovery Trading Company

New nuiMOs outfits are turning up everywhere now! We spotted a Chinese New Year one for $12.99.

There was a Valentine’s Day outfit, too, which also costs $12.99.

Won’t Minnie look lovely in a new Valentine’s Day dress?

Those are all the updates we have for now. We had fun exploring Disney’s Animal Kingdom to bring you all the latest updates! We’ll be back in the park soon, though, and in the meantime, you can check out updates in Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, EPCOT, and the Disney World resorts!
