food IS a theme park
Headed to Disney World next week?
Animal Kingdom
If you are, then you’ll probably want to start taking a look at the weather! After all, those temps can definitely affect how you pack. We’re taking a look at the weather next week to help out.
It seems as though Easter Eggs are popping up EVERYWHERE in Disney World today! We’ve hunted them down over at EPCOT’s Eggstravaganza, and we’ve spotted the beautifully ornate eggs that are returning to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa.
Beautiful egg at the Grand Floridian!
In addition to those egg displays and all of the yummy Easter treats arriving around Disney World, you can also spot some returning eggs in the lobby of Disney’s Beach Club Resort! We spotted three large eggs in the lobby today.
It’s a world of laughter, a world of tears…yes, we went there. And you’re welcome for the earworm!
“it’s a small world”
So why are we singing “it’s a small world?” Well, Easter has officially landed at Disney World! The Easter treats are arriving (and we’ll be trying them all!), we’ve already found a Happy Easter Toy Story MagicBand, and Easter plushes have landed online!
Sure, we love all of the main characters in Disney Movies — but sometimes, we are ALL about the side characters!
Pua Pillow (AWW!)
And we don’t often see a lot of merchandise dedicated to them, although we have seen an Animal Friends collection, an Easter Magic Band with two Toy Story side characters, and a backpack with some of the side characters from Raya and the Last Dragon.
Earlier this year, Disney announced that the Jungle Cruise at both Disney World and Disneyland would be getting a new storyline involving unique scenes and MUCH more!

With these new aspects added to the ride, we’ll get to learn more about those characters from the rhino pole scene, and a skipper character will actually be introduced into the ride. But, today we got more info about this refurbishment and things just got WAY more interesting!
The global health pandemic has created a lot of challenges for the travel industry over the past year, particularly for the cruise industry.
Disney Magic
Take Disney Cruise Line — it’s been OVER a year since its last sailing. The CDC continues to extend no-sail regulations, and Disney has previously said that it believes cruises will be the last arm of its business to return.
Here at DFB we LOVE to give you the inside scoop or behind-the-scenes look at ALL things Disney. Want a behind-the-scenes peek at EPCOT’s new nighttime spectacular? You got it! Want to know about some of the SECRETS behind your favorite Disney rides? No problem!
What a Beautiful View
But now we’re pulling back the curtain on something much closer to home. Today, we’re giving you an exclusive look at what it’s like to be a part of the Disney Food Blog team! Ever wonder what it’s like to write articles about Disney all day? What did some of our writers do before they joined our team? You’ve got questions, and we’ve got ANSWERS!
St. Patrick’s Day is now behind us, and Easter is on the way. And we’re already starting to see signs of Easter at Disney World!
Flame Tree Barbecue
Disney JUST released all the amazing Easter treats coming to the parks, and we’ve already tried a few, including a brand new cupcake (and we know there will be TONS of cupcakes — there are ALWAYS cupcakes!).
Thinking of heading to Disney World to spend some time with Woody and friends in Toy Story Land? Or maybe you’re planning to visit to EPCOT for the International Flower & Garden Festival?
Toy Story Land
Well, if you’re heading to Disney World during some days in April, you might just have some more time to spend in the parks riding your favorite rides, eating your favorite treats, and more!
LOTS of projects are going on in Disney World right now!
Dumbo the Flying Elephant
And we’re not just talking about the big ones! Sure, TRON Lightcycle Run is exciting, but we’re pretty interested in the little projects on Cinderella Castle, Peter Pan’s Flight, and more. Now, we know about another little project coming to an ICONIC attraction.
