food IS a theme park
We hope you’re enjoying all that’s new at Walt Disney World this week! We’ve already visited Disney’s Hollywood Studios and Disney Springs this week, and now we’re journeying to Epcot! So come along as we explore what’s new in food, merchandise, construction, and… vikings?
Welcome to Epcot!
Okay, so Magic Kingdom already has another new Starbucks You Are Here Mug at Main Street Bakery. And even though you may be thinking, “Wait. Wasn’t there a Fantasyland-themed mug that came out, like, just last October?” Well, you’d be correct. But just wait until you see the new one!

YES!! It’s TOMORROWLAND! All day, every day!! From the Carousel of Progress icon… [Read more…]
Do you remember when Disney-themed “Share a Coke” bottles made their debut at the parks? These super fun bottles suddenly arrived at outdoor vending locations, inviting guests to “Share a Coke on Main Street” or “Share a Coke at the Castle.”
Main Street and Castle Coke Bottles
Well, Coca-Cola fans, you’ll want to keep an eye out for brand new bottles in both Magic Kingdom in Disney World AND in Disneyland Park! And this time?
They’re based on favorite attractions and Lands!
We’re not really sure how to tell you this, so we’re just gonna come out with it: Walt Disney World’s beloved Carrot Cake Cookie has been ‘updated.’ Changed. Reinvented. Altered unnecessarily. However you say it, the truth remains: the Carrot Cake Cookie as we knew it is no more.
Let’s get into this. You can still find the Carrot Cake Cookie at Trolley Car Treats — Disney’s Hollywood Studios’ Starbucks location. (Since Sweet Spells closed a couple of weeks ago, Trolley Car is the only location where you can pick up this popular treat!) It costs $3.99 (or a DDP snack credit), so it’s a relatively reasonable price.

There’s always something new happening in Walt Disney World’s Disney Springs, and this week is no exception! We’ve got menu changes, new merchandise, construction updates, and extras! Join us to see What’s New!
West Side
is serving up sweet treats, including Coca-Cola Cake and Coca-Cola Brownies! Yes, we will embrace the Treat Yourself mantra!

It’s the weekend! And we’re celebrating it with another DFB Video today, where we’re sharing the MUST-EAT items at Disneyland’s Pixar Fest!

The newly reopened Blue Sky Cellar in Disney California Adventure is giving us glimpses into the future of Pixar Pier.

The Cellar features concept art, sketches, models, and even videos of the upcoming land, which opens on June 23rd, and includes some new concept art of Lamplight Lounge! As Heather Sievers (@diningindisney) was busy noshing on all the eats at Pixar Fest, she stopped by Blue Sky Cellar and shared photos of the concept art with us.
This new lounge will replace the Cove Bar. The story behind the space is that it’s renovated from an old warehouse factory, with the wooden floor made from refinished wood boards from the factory (you’ll spot them on the ceiling, too).
THEY’RE BAAAACK!
Summer is approaching, and with it, cravings for everyone’s favorite campfire treat: S’mores! Walt Disney World has done s’mores in lots of different ways over the years, most recently in latte form at Joffrey’s last year. And now The Ganachery in Disney Springs has upped the game on this simple treat.
