Minnie Donut Ears Arrive in Disney World!

They’re here! The Minnie Donut Ears made quite the splash when they arrived at Disneyland Resort a few weeks ago, and we’ve been waiting as patiently as possible for the sweet Ears to arrive in Walt Disney World… and now they’re here!

Minnie Donut Ears

We spotted these today in Epcot’s Mouse Gear after knowing that they would make their official debut today in Hollywood Studios at a V.I.Passholder Pop-Up Event. But we’ve also heard from some DFB Reader pals who have reported seeing them in Resorts, too, such as All Star Music and can verify that they are in Disney Springs as well.

You’ve GOT to See the NEW Tumbler at Disney Starbucks Locations!

By DFB Sarah 10 Comments

Starbucks

is known for its coffee, pastries, and collectible mugs. But now the mermaid-emblazoned coffee shop at Disneyland has something that’s just right for those cold beverages: the new All Parks Tumbler featuring — what else? — park icons from both Disney World and Disneyland parks!
