food IS a theme park
New cupcake alert!!! Over at All Star Music Resort there’s a Unicorn Cupcake (I know, I know, been there, done that) — but with a TWIST!
Disney’s newest unicorn cupcake is a little bit better than the rest…
This one starts out similar to the rest. Vanilla cake topped with vanilla buttercream swirled with a fruity rainbow buttercream. There’s glitter everywhere (natch) along with chocolate disc ears and an ice cream cone horn.
Here at the DFB, we’re all about taking advantage of money-saving opportunities whenever possible, but we also love snacks, soooo… We’ve combined these two loves into one super tip that’s straight from the 2019 DFB Guide to Walt Disney World Dining!
That’s right: Snacks that are filling enough to be meals — which means saving some money or Disney Dining Plan credits! A Walt Disney World vacation budget often revolves around food: How much do we want to spend on meals each day? What’s the most we want to spend on snacks? Are we going to buy souvenir goodies to bring home?
Chocolate Dipped Krispie Treats make a fun souvenir!
If you’re on the DDP, you still have planning to do and questions to ask: If we want to try a Signature meal, how do we conserve entitlements to be sure we can cover it? If we’re on a Quick Service DDP, how can we stretch those credits to cover more meals?
If you’re planning a Walt Disney World vacation in 2019 and will be using the Disney Dining Plan, you’re likely already thinking about where you’ll eat and how you’ll maximize those credits.
Flame Tree Barbecue is still a great way to maximize a quick service credit!
Lucky for you, we have tons of resources to help you with all of that! Whether you’re trying to make the most of quick service credits or trying to maximize your table service credits, there’s a DFB post for you. 😉
We love us some cupcakes here at the Disney Food Blog (check out our Disney Cupcake Challenge!), and no year in review could possibly be complete without an ode to some of our favorites!
Oh, yes. The year in cupcakes kicked off in high gear with the grandest cupcake of them all: the Rose Gold Cupcake! We found this beauty way back in January at Sunshine Seasons in Epcot’s Future World, and then rose gold treats suddenly began appearing everywhere!
Rose Gold Ears Cupcake in Epcot
We didn’t hate the rose gold trend. We were in for the ears, the spirit jerseys, and — especially — the cupcakes! This one from Main Street Bakery was a big hit due to all. that. frosting!

Usually our Disneyland correspondent Heather (kon’nichiwa, @DiningInDisney) brings us treats and sights from California’s Disneyland Resort, but today, she’s giving us a peek at a Disney Parks favorite… from the other side of the planet! It’s Chinese Chili Popcorn from Tokyo Disney!
Chinese Chili Popcorn
Yup, Disney popcorn is a thing all over the world — and we love a unique popcorn flavor! Thankfully, so does Heather, so she was all over this brand new flavor! FYI: Tokyo Disney also has cute popcorn carts. 😉
Maybe you’re anxiously anticipating a present under the Christmas tree from jolly ol’ Saint Nick. But if you just can’t wait, Epcot’s Sunshine Seasons has a few presents you can unwrap right now…

Sprinkles in Disney Springs
Earlier this year, Sprinkles announced its new line of holiday packaging, which is a lovely mix of snowflake designs and metallic gold!
