New movie-themed snacks are also coming to both Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Epic Universe, including the Rosalina Cupcake, a blue velvet cupcake filled with blueberry cheesecake, and lemon buttercream, topped with a chocolate crown and star. You’ll also be able to get Galaxy Popcorn, a multicolored berry-flavored popcorn with edible glitter, which will be available later in the experience.

Did someone say new snacks?

Both parks will also have limited-time merchandise inspired by the movie, including first-of-its-kind interactive shoulder pals themed to Luma in the movie in both blue and yellow. These will feature light and sound and will even interact with other shoulder pals.
