food IS a theme park
Disney lost an important soul this week.

Rolly Crump was an animator who turned into one of the most important designers of the Disneyland theme park. Earlier this week, he died at 93.
If you’re hungry and have a sweet tooth, you’re in luck. 🍀 🐰
Amorette’s Patisserie
Amorette’s Patisserie in Disney Springs is a fan-favorite location if you’re looking for a specialty sweet treat. From small cakes to mousses, Amorette’s has you covered! While we can almost always find something tasty from this shop, we got extra lucky this week.
If you ask us — everything tastes better when it’s Mickey-shaped.
A top-tier snack
From waffles to ice cream bars to beignets, we’ve tried plenty of treats shaped like our favorite mouse — and now, we’ve got a new one to try. Disney World is celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with all sorts of eats and drinks, and we’re heading over to Port Orleans — French Quarter to check one out!
It seems every day we get a new update as we approach the opening day of TRON Lightcycle / Run!
TRON Lightcycle / Run
Now that we are only a few weeks out from the official premiere date of April 4th, more changes are coming faster than a lightcycle. Not only did we learn more about the new snack kiosk right outside of the ride, but a familiar sight we’re used to seeing every day is getting a bit of an update too!
There’s a rumor that Disney World is covered by a giant dome that allows the company to control the weather.
Magic Kingdom
While that would make running the park a WHOLE lot easier, it just isn’t true. Orlando is subject to all sorts of bad weather, from hurricanes and torrential downpours to brutal heat (which you may not be surprised by). What may surprise you is that it actually DOES get cold, too! Knowing what the weather will be like ahead of your trip can help you plan accordingly and avoid any discomfort.
There are a few good reasons to stay at a Walt Disney World Hotel right now. Some current perks are extra time in the parks and being able to be the first to reserve Individual Lightning Lanes.
Swan Reserve
Even if you don’t stay at a Walt Disney World resort, sometimes it might be worth heading to some to visit. Some of the best restaurants at Disney World are at the resorts. Like Amare, located in the Swan Reserve. We think we just found another reason you might want to leave the parks and visit a Disney World Resort instead!
Grogu, aka Baby Yoda, has become one of the most beloved characters in the Star Wars universe. He can be seen in person with the Mandalorian at Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland and now at Walt Disney World.

We’ve seen plenty of Baby Yoda merchandise come out in recent years, but we’ve spotted something new that we couldn’t wait to show you!

The main cheese!
Over the years, we’ve tried some unique snacks in the Disney parks.
House of Good Fortune
From Blueberry Muffin Kit Kats in the Japan Pavilion’s Mitsukoshi Department Store, to fruity chips in The House of Good Fortune in EPCOT’s China Pavilion — EPCOT has a ton of food options for adventurous eaters. On our most recent trip to the China Pavilion, we found another snack that caught our eye, and we had to try them.
Is there a better way to start your day than at Magic Kingdom?
Mornings at Magic Kingdom!
You might be someone who rope drops those big rides like Space Mountain. Or are you someone who likes to soak it all in by drinking coffee on the Hub Grass? Either way, if you’re starting your morning off early at the Magic Kingdom, you might get hungry and need to grab breakfast. There are a lot of options for you, but we just found TWO more to add to your list!
