food IS a theme park
There are exciting things happening at Disneyland Resort!
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Right now, we’ve got some construction, food, and merchandise updates to bring you from the Happiest Place on Earth, so let’s get right into it!
Salt & Straw is heading to Disney Springs VERY soon!
We can’t wait!
The family-run ice cream chain is known for its unique, frequently changing flavors (like banana and avocado sorbet or brown ale and bacon). Salt & Straw uses locally sourced ingredients, and makes flavors that have an emphasis on community connections. While this ice cream shop already has a number of other locations — including one in Downtown Disney at Disneyland Resort — we are eagerly anticipating its April 20th opening date in Disney Springs! Until then, all we can do is drool over Salt & Straw’s latest flavor (and you might drool too because it sounds amazing!).
Disneyland Resort is slowly returning to “normal,” and this week we learned about the return of a popular college marching band, plus a Main Street Electrical Parade merchandise collection coming soon!
Sleeping Beauty Castle!
We also tried some specialty beignets, a sweet churro, and a churro that reminded us of cleaning products. Plus, there was a TON of new merchandise! Read all about it right here.
With Easter right around the corner, we’re looking forward to some delicious seasonal treats at Disneyland!
Sleeping Beauty Castle!

There’s a new ice cream spot coming to Disney Springs this year and we are SO excited.
Salt and Straw in Downtown Disney
What makes it such an anticipated shop? It’s Salt & Straw! Salt & Straw is an ice cream shop that’s known for scooping up unique ice cream flavors made with local, organic, and sustainable ingredients. There’s already a location in Disneyland, and now we’re taking a look at some of the flavors we’re MOST looking forward to seeing in Disney World.
Disneyland beignets are a classic and delicious park snack!
Get the sauce. Trust us.
We’ve tried all kinds of beignets ranging from spicy to cookie butter-dipped, and everything in between! We get excited each time there’s a new beignet in Disneyland because that normally means we’re due for a delicious sweet treat. Disneyland’s newest beignet is in Downtown Disney, and it was a hit!
Where are our West Coast peops at?
Disney California Adventure
We’ve been hanging around Disneyland, checking out the Easter Egg hunt, admiring all the new Minnie ears released recently, eating pizza, and more! We’ve also been into EVERY single shop and dining spot to check out everything new! So let’s get on with some updates!
To ensure we are equipping our readers with all the information they need, we will continue to report on all travel, safety, and COVID-related news that could impact a Disney Parks visit.
Disneyland has made a LOT of history in its time, but who could have predicted that the park would be forced to close for over an entire year? Since reopening, Disneyland has introduced a new attraction, brought back some classic festivals, and introduced new characters to the park. Although Disneyland has been open since late April 2021, the resort isn’t operating quite like it did before the pandemic.
Disneyland
During the phased reopening process, Disneyland has seen some major changes in its parks and resorts. While the health and safety guidelines continue to change, there are plenty of other operational changes both guests and Cast Members have had to contend with as Disneyland reopened.
Sprinkles Cupcakes is EVER an innovator when it comes to baked goods — it’s “the world’s first cupcake bakery!”
Sprinkles Cupcakes
Serving cupcakes, cookies, brownies, and ice cream, the gourmet shop features innovative flavors and the novelty of a cupcake ATM. So we know we’re in for a treat (or two!) from their newly released April menu!
This year’s Food & Wine Festival is in full swing at Disney California Adventure in Disneyland Resort!
2022 Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival
Although the first thing that probably comes to mind when anyone mentions one of Disney’s Food & Wine Festivals is, well, the food, there are lots of other fun entertainment options available during these special events as well, including signings with talented Disney artists that you won’t want to miss!
