food IS a theme park
is one of the most popular spots to grab a snack or treat in the World Showcase at Walt Disney World’s Epcot. And now the home of School Bread is closed until summer. BOOOO!!!!

Welcome, Spring, to Epcot!
And with Spring comes the 2018 Epcot Flower and Garden Festival! Today is the very first day, and now through May 28th Epcot guests will enjoy Disney-themed topiaries all over the park, specialty tours, extra family fun, and the Garden Rocks Concert Series (complete with Dining Packages once again this year).
And, of course, there are 15 Outdoor Kitchens — better known as Food Booths — serving small plates and beverages with a focus on Spring flavors with fresh-from-the-garden ingredients.

The 2018 Epcot Flower and Garden Festival starts this week and there’s a brand new slate of commemorative merchandise items ready for you!
The Festival is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year and many of the items feature a 25th anniversary logo — including some of the coffee mugs, hats, and apparel. Let’s check out a few items!

The most beautiful time of the year kicks off this week at Epcot when the 2018 Epcot Flower and Garden Festival begins February 28!
The Epcot Flower and Garden Festival
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the Festival, which runs through May 28! Throughout the Festival, Epcot guests can enjoy Disney-themed topiaries throughout the park, special exhibits and seminars, and the Garden Rocks Concert Series (and Dining Packages).
And, there are also FIFTEEN Food Booths. Much like the Food Booths at the Epcot Food and Wine Festival, the Flower and Garden Festival Booths are serving up small plates and beverages, but with a Spring focus on fresh-from-the-garden ingredients.
There’s no need to be too sad that the 2018 Epcot Festival of the Arts just ended on Monday. Because we already have another Festival to look forward to starting NEXT WEEK when the 2018 Epcot Flower and Garden Festival kicks off on Wednesday, February 28th!

Another fun offering at the Festival is the Garden Rocks Concert Series, where popular bands from the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s take the stage at the American Gardens Theatre in the American Adventure Pavilion to share some of their greatest hits with the crowds.
Happy Saturday! We’re back with another DFB Video this weekend, and we’re taking you on a Food Tour of Epcot’s China Pavilion!
Epcot’s China
You may already be familiar with the China Pavilion’s Table Service Restaurant, Nine Dragons, or grabbed a bite at the Lotus Blossom Cafe quick service location (and if not, we’ll share more about those with you today). But you may not know about some hidden gems in this beautiful Pavilion, such as the Joy of Tea kiosk or a unique, tasty beverage by the name of Tipsy Ducks in Love unique to the China Pavilion. So take a tour with us around Epcot’s China to discover what you might like to try there on your next visit! [Read more…]

Hey Guys! We’re back with another DFB Video today, and we’re sharing some tips on surviving the weather in Disney World!
Rainy day Duffy
Walt Disney World is truly magical. But sometimes the weather just… isn’t. Because the Sunshine State isn’t just sun-shiny. It can also be humid, rainy, and — believe it or not — even cold depending on when you visit. And what about the possibility of a hurricane? We’re talking through all these scenarios, and giving you some tips on how you can be prepared for just about anything weather-wise in Orlando! [Read more…]
Y’all, when we issued the 2018 Walt Disney World Cupcake Crawl Challenge a couple weeks ago, we knew it had the potential to be a deliciously fun activity for our amazing DFB readers — but we didn’t know just how adorable it could be!
You’ll recall that the challenge included fourteen of our favorite Walt Disney World cupcakes — plus a few bonus items that we just couldn’t help adding. The Rose Gold Cupcake sold at Sunshine Seasons in the Land Pavilion at Epcot has been a particular fan favorite — even with a whole bunch of rose gold treats popping up every. where.
