food IS a theme park
Did we just find the best dessert hack? Uh, yeah, I think we did.
Ice Cream Sandwich
This trend is getting popular at McDonald’s, but we think that’s just the start. This trend can work almost everywhere, even at Disney World!
Who doesn’t love ice cream? Well, we aren’t sure how many fans this new flavor will have.
Salt & Straw
We have seen some unique ice cream flavors at Salt and Straw in Disney Springs. Currently on the menu, they are serving up scoops of Sourdough and Olive Oil Chocolate, Chocolate Malted Potato Chip Cupcake, and Strawberry Honey Balsamic with Black Pepper. But this new flavor of ice cream isn’t made by them, and we are pretty sure that it’s the weirdest one we’ve heard of.
The EPCOT Resort Area at Disney World is full of interesting dining options — especially because you can easily get to FIVE different resorts by just walking in a circle.
Disney’s BoardWalk
This area is located just minutes from EPCOT by foot, and while you can take a Friendship Boat to travel to Disney’s Yacht Club Resort, Disney’s Beach Club Resort, The Walt Disney World Swan Resort, The Walt Disney World Dolphin Resort, AND Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, you can also walk to each one relatively quickly. While there are a few different places to grab ice cream, the one that may stick out the most to you is Beaches and Cream, specifically the To-Go window if you don’t have a reservation for the restaurant. But are these shakes and treats really worth the trip over? We found out!
Disney’s Pop Century Resort has been undergoing a pretty extensive refurbishment in Everything POP!, the main dining location, for many months now.
Everything POP!
We’ve gotten to see the new design come to life, and to be honest, we’re fans of it! But that’s not all — the hotel recently announced that multiple new menu options would be arriving at the dining spot soon, and we just got a chance to try two of them out and see if they’re really worth your hard-earned money.
Are you looking for the perfect way to celebrate Valentine’s Day tomorrow? (If you didn’t know, tomorrow is indeed Valentine’s Day—it’s not too late to prepare!)
Exquisito Guanabana Stracciatella from Salt & Straw
What better way to celebrate the day of love than with a lovely scoop of ice cream? You can choose from delicious flavors like Milk Chocolate Fudge with Candied Macadamia Nut or Hazelnut Chocolate Cookies & Cream.
Okay, we know that price increases happen ALL the time in Disney World, especially on food. We go through menu updates every week, after all.
Ghirardelli
However, the biggest price increases usually happen in the fall when we see price increases across the board at almost every Disney World restaurant location. Well, we didn’t see price hikes then for Ghirardelli in Disney Springs, but we are seeing some pretty significant price increases now. Some of the most popular ice cream sundaes at Ghirardelli now cost $2+ more. Ouch.
Here at DFB, we’re true to our name and adore trying all the new snacks that hit Disney World.
Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort
Whether it’s in the parks, the hotels, and beyond, it’s our job to go all around Disney World and try all the new snacks, drinks, and dining options that are released. This time, it looks like it’ll take us to Disney’s All-Star Movies Resort to try out THREE new snacks debuting tomorrow, and we couldn’t be more excited!
Who doesn’t love free ice cream?
Free Ice Cream?
As they say, “I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream,” and for one day only, you can get some free ice cream at Disney World! We’ll all be screaming for ice cream!
Staying hydrated at Disney World is so important! Between the heat and the humidity, it’s important to drink water.
Our signed water bottle!
We have carried around our fair share of water bottles and tumblers to keep us hydrated while walking those magical miles. Sometimes we go for practical and something that can keep our water ice cold, especially in the summer. Sometimes we are looking for something cute. We found an adorable tumbler that makes our snack-loving hearts soar and we even tried it out!
It’s pumpkin season, bby!
Pumpkin szn!
That’s right, we’re officially into the fall and Halloween season, and Disney World is celebrating HARD. We’ve already been to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and tried a bunch of seasonal treats, but we’ve still got room for more. And if you’re a pumpkin fan, there’s one spot you need to know about in EPCOT!
