Welcome back to another roundup of what’s new in Disney Springs! There’s a lot of buzz around the shopping and dining district with the opening of Cirque du Soleil’s Drawn to Life just a few days away!
But first, let’s recap all of the latest food and merchandise updates, plus a special appearance by Jolly Old Saint Nicholas!
Disney Springs Food Update
Vivoli Il Gelato
In anticipation for the opening of the new Cirque du Soleil show, Drawn to Life, Vivoli il Gelato has released a new specialty menu item, the Cirque du Shake! There’s a lot going on here, as this beverage has strawberry gelato, cookies and cream gelato, a waffle cone that is half dipped in white chocolate and has gold shimmer dust, chocolate sauce, and whipped cream. On top, you’ll find sprinkles, a strawberry, two lollipops, a pinwheel, and an umbrella!
Overall, this milkshake was tasty, melted fast, and was a bit pricey at $18. But if you’re celebrating the opening of Drawn to Life, this may be the perfect pit stop on your way to the theater!

Sunshine Churros
We’re always keeping our eyes peeled for new or returning seasonal flavors to arrive at Sunshine Churros. If you’re still looking for fall flavors, you’ll be happy to know that we noticed that Pumpkin Spice Churros were available!
They cost $6.95 and come with a side of Cream Cheese Frosting for dipping.

Disney Springs General Update
Perhaps the most exciting part about our recent visits to Disney Springs has been the opportunity to say “hello” to Santa!
He’s currently greeting guests at Once Upon a Toy, and you’ll need to sign up for a virtual queue in order to see him! He’ll be around chatting with guests through December 24th.

Disney Springs Merchandise Update
Ever After Jewelry Co.
Our eyes nearly popped out of our heads when we visited Ever After Jewelry Co. on a recent visit to Disney Springs — not because of the lovely new pair of Designer Minnie Ears by Vera Wang, but by the price tag!
The newest Disney World accessory will run you a cool $600 for a pair of these ears! That’s one more night at a Deluxe Hotel! That’s 4o days’ worth of Genie+! That’s 20 pairs of regular Minnie Ears!

The Basket at Wine Bar George
Over at The Basket at Wine Bar George, we spotted a new Spider-Man Corkcicle! We love seeing all of the new colors and patterns arrive, and now there are designs perfect for Marvel fans!
We were told that an Iron Man version would be coming soon too, so we’ll keep our eyes peeled!
