food IS a theme park
There was a TON of Magic Kingdom news in the last few days, but fear not! That’s why we’re here keeping up with all the latest Disney news for you.
Magic Kingdom
Without further ado, let’s get into what’s new in Magic Kingdom!
The following review is based on DFB Reader Jill I.’s visit to Aulani, A Disney Resort and Spa in Hawaii. She was kind enough to share her thoughts and photos on some Halloween treats and more snacks that you can grab at the tropical resort.

While at Aulani, you can visit the spa, say “hello” to some fun Disney characters, and (of course) grab some delicious treats. But, if you want to get some extra special (and spooky) snacks, now is the time to visit!
Fall is finally here and with the changing season comes seasonal drinks.
Jaleo
This drink originates from Jaleo in Disney Spring’s 2021 winter drink menu. Although this drink comes from their winter menu, the color and taste of this drink screams fall to us. You’ll definitely want to give this a try.
The Main Street Confectionery is back after a HUGE refurb in Magic Kingdom!
Main Street Confectionery
We first got a sneak peek at the new interactive candy wall and some of the new treats — then the fan-favorite spot officially opened right before Disney World’s 50th anniversary. Since then, we’ve tried some of the new treats (including the controversial Skittles fudge), but today we spotted a new treat!
Hello from the BoardWalk at Walt Disney World!
Disney’s BoardWalk
We love hanging out at the BoardWalk to visit places like Trattoria al Forno for some Italian food or BoardWalk Joe’s to get a quick margarita! A spot we don’t find ourselves at much though is AbracadaBar, a magician-themed cocktail lounge right on the BoardWalk! According to the lore of the BoardWalk, magicians tried to outdo each other with their tricks here after their shows. But one day, the secret lounge vanished into thin air! Now, it’s randomly reappeared for us to enjoy. It’s been a while since we waltzed into this time capsule, so let’s see if AbracadaBar is still magical!
Geyser Point Bar & Grill at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge Resort is a spot that features both an open-air restaurant and a bar/lounge and serves up dishes inspired by the wilderness and the Pacific Northwest!
Geyser Point
In the past, we’ve talked about this restaurant being one of Disney World’s hidden gems, especially its to-go window. Today, we stopped by their lounge to try out a Halloween-themed drink flight!
Disney World is filled with so many treats right now for the 50th anniversary, that it’s an adventure in itself to try and get through them all!
Tower of Terror as a Beacon of Magic
While you’ll find over 150 snacks and drinks across the parks and resorts, there’s something extra special about Disney’s Hollywood Studios with its Beacon of Magic and EPIC list of goodies. And, we’re here to rank all the dishes and drinks that we’ve tried in Hollywood Studios for the 50th anniversary!
To end EPCOT’s International Food and Wine Festival, runDisney will be holding its annual Disney Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend! This year’s event is Disney villains-themed and features a 5K, 10K, Half Marathon, and a Two Course Challenge.

Today, we got some more details about the Wine and Dine Weekend, including a way to ride Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and more after the park closes!
October isn’t just Disney World’s 50th Anniversary, it’s Gideon’s Bakehouse’s birthday too!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
This Disney Springs cookie, cake, and coffee spot is known for giant cookies and delicious treats with creative seasonal flavors. Recently, Gideon’s announced they’re bringing back some fan favorites to celebrate the store’s birthday!
Happy Fall Y’all! It’s the Halloween season and that means an abundant supply of pumpkin spice treats at the Disney parks.
It’s the spooky season!
We’ve already tried some spooky and scary treats like the Halloween grey stuff, a pumpkin cheesecake funnel cake, pumpkin monkey bread, and more. Today, we’re trying out another pumpkin-licious treat at Disneyland!
