Ample Hills Creamery on Disney’s BoardWalk is one of our favorite, go-to spots for ice cream every time we’re at Disney World! Not only is Ample Hills home to amazing ice cream, but it’s located within walking distance to Epcot, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Yacht and Beach Club Resorts, and Disney’s Swan and Dolphin Hotels.
Ample Hills Creamery
The house-made ice cream at Ample Hills is available in lots of unique flavors — which is why we always recommend the the Ice Cream Flight.
That way you can choose SIX different flavors!

You may recall the absolutely awesome Mermaid Cupcake that arrived at Magic Kingdom’s Main Street Bakery just a couple weeks ago. If not, you really should check it out here.

Is this thing gorgeous or what?!? It’s even more sparkly than the Main Street Bakery Mermaid Cupcake, thanks to the addition of iridescent colors on the white chocolate mermaid tail and surrounding chocolate shells. [Read more…]
We all reserved our movie tickets for Star Wars: The Last Jedi months ago. We’re finalizing our theories on what’s been happening with Luke Skywalker in the time leading up to Rey finding him on Ahch-To. Let’s see, what else do we need… Oh, I know! How about some Star Wars ICE CREAM?!

Well, Ample Hills Creamery — the Brooklyn-based ice creamery that opened its first location outside of New York on Disney’s BoardWalk — has got you covered! In partnership with Disney and Lucasfilm, Ample Hills Creamery launched three limited-edition flavors inspired by Star Wars: The Last Jedi!
According to amplehills.com, First Order will “showcase the monolithic, fierce power of The First Order, salted dark chocolate ice cream represents relentless villainy, while cocoa powder, bittersweet chocolate and a dash of powerful espresso reinforce the dark side.”
We’ve been checking out ALL THE GINGERBREAD Displays in Disney World from the Grand Floridian Gingerbread House to the Beach Club’s Gingerbread Carousel. Today, we’re at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, and we arrived not knowing exactly what to expect.
Disney’s BoardWalk
You see, the BoardWalk’s Gingerbread Display has varied over the years. You may recall the Sweet Shoppe theme or the days-of-yore Gazebo, or even the year that Stitch took over. Last year, the BoardWalk gave the Resort’s Pastry Chefs the opportunity to create several individual gingerbread houses themed to their choosing.
2017 BoardWalk Gingerbread Display
But for 2017, the whole team is back in action together, and they’ve created a brand new display themed after something very near and dear to our hearts… the BoardWalk’s restaurants!
Character meals — where you go to a restaurant and are entertained by Disney characters visiting your table and signing autographs — are pretty much a Disney rite of passage for any disney fan.
So we’re super jazzed about the news that a new character breakfast is coming this spring to Trattoria al Forno on Disney World’s BoardWalk!

This new character breakfast is a “bon voyage” celebration with Disney royal couples from films including Tangled and The Little Mermaid. That’s right…it looks like Rapunzel and Flynn Rider are finally getting a character breakfast!!
