food IS a theme park
Disney’s animated films take us to some extraordinary places! They’ve taken us under the sea in The Little Mermaid and even to outer space in films like WALL-E.

And did you know there are a ton of REAL places all over the globe that served as an inspiration for many of our beloved animated films?
Grab your snacks and settle in for an adventure around the world as we check out 14 real places from Disney’s animated films!
You know we are full of expert Disney tips, but even we make some odd choices when it comes to our Disney trips sometimes.
Magic Kingdom
This may not be what people would classically recommend, but trust us — we have our reasons! Would YOU make some of these crazy choices on your next Disney World trip? Or have we just lost our marbles? 😉
Attention Frozen fans! We’ve found even more new merchandise you’ll want to check out next time you’re in Epcot!
The Fjording Shop
Since the release of Frozen 2, we’ve seen a TON of new merchandise appear throughout Disney Parks. And yesterday we found several new apparel pieces at The Fjording Shop in the Norway Pavilion in Epcot to share with you!
We’ve traveled “Into the Unknown” and back into Disney World!

Frozen 2 is open TODAY!! And, while we’ve been checking out all the Frozen treats in anticipation for the film, now we’re having another in celebration of its premiere!
Hear ye, hear ye! Calling all Lords and Ladies to join us at a royal meal in Epcot!
World Showcase Lagoon
Dining with the characters at Walt Disney World is a rite of passage! And if you’ve got a little princess (or prince!) with you, chances are they would LOVE to eat with their idols. And while Cinderella’s Royal Table is the most coveted character dining reservation in all the land (scratch that, the most coveted reservation in ALL OF DINING), it’s not the only place you can eat with royalty.
The Norway Pavilion
Located in Epcot‘s Norway Pavilion, Akershus is (somewhat) of a hidden gem when it comes to character dining. While reservations are certainly highly recommended, it’s much easier to snag one than Cinderella’s Royal Table. And while this castle is more modest, IT’S STILL A CASTLE. So grab your tiara, and let’s head to Norway!
Some things are worth melting for…
Frozen Arendelle Aqua Lemonade
But, this Frozen slush (inspired by the new Arendelle Aqua color trend) is a cold drink you don’t want to miss out on in Disney World! While we’ve already seen the Arendelle Aqua Victoria Spongecake, the Pearl Cupcake, and the cotton candy-flavored Lemonade, this new drink found in Epcot’s Norway Pavilion is giving us more chills than Elsa‘s ice palace!
Hey there! Big summer blowout in Epcot’s Norway! Don’t worry, though — you can wear this merch ANY time of the year.
Norway in the World Showcase
Oaken must be clearing out his Trading Post next to the Frozen Ever After Ride! An entirely new stock of items has blown into the Norway Pavilion. You can tell Princess Anna that we would definitely kiss a troll to get our hands on some of these pieces!!
Greetings from Epcot!! We took a stroll around the park and found some awesome new merchandise, adorable new jelly candies, and of course, construction updates!
Spaceship Earth
Take a lap around Epcot with us while we show you what’s new!
We are so excited about the Guardians of the Galaxy ride opening in 2021, so we snagged a few new pictures of the construction. [Read more…]
Epcot is busy with the International Festival of the Arts starting this Friday — we’ll be reporting live from opening day — but we still found new must-have food-themed merchandise being added to the shops as well as new drinks, sweet eats, teas, and construction progress — we’ve got it all covered!
Hello from Epcot
Let’s jump in with that brand new space-themed restaurant near Mission: Space opening in 2020!
Ever since Epcot’s Kringla Bakeri og Kafe reopened in August 2018, we’ve been keeping an eye on the pastry case to see what old favorites returned and what new treats await. Just a few days ago, we told you that Troll Horns (finally!) made a comeback! And just yesterday we let you know about the Troll Kreme Spiked Slush that’s perfect for fortifying the spirit before jumping in line for Frozen Ever After.
Kringla Bakeri og Kafe
And now we’re bringing you a sweet treat that’s reindeer approved (because, after all, reindeer are better than people). It’s Sven’s Apple Cheesecake, and it’s lovely in its simplicity.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
