We take all of those bits into consideration when we bring you our recommendations for DDP Quick Service values.

Bengal Barbecue in Disneyland’s Adventureland

is an awesome (and awesomely themed!) spot to grab a snack, and for Valentine’s Day (being celebrated for a few more days at Disneyland Resort!), they’ve got two great options. We sipped on the Piranha Lemonade Slushy, and we gotta say: we’re in love!

Piranha Lemonade Slushy

Piranha Lemonade Slushy is a mango and pineapple slushy with lychee and pomegranate popping pearls! It’s as refreshing to drink as it sounds!

Review and Photos: New Menu Items at Contempo Cafe in Disney World

By 2 Comments

Raise your hand if you’re guilty of stalking the Contempo Cafe pastry case for new cupcakes! Recently, we’ve loved the Churro Cupcake and the Millenial Pink Cupcake.

In fact, it has been a few months since we went to Contempo Cafe for something other than a cupcake! But when I stopped by today (yes, for a cupcake) I noticed something new to me on the menu: Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup. Well, twist my arm – I just had to order it.

But, don’t worry… I found a fun cupcake too. 😉 Read on to find out more!

The Grilled Cheese is made with three cheeses – Fontina, Monterrey Jack, and Boursin Garlic & Fine Herb – and is on Sourdough Bread. It is served with Tomato Bisque and your choice of fries, homemade chips, or veggie slaw. I opted for the homemade chips.

Sprinkles Cupcakes

locations in Walt Disney World and Disneyland have two returning cupcakes, and for one, the cupcake wizards of Sprinkles have found inspiration in the most important meal of the day! This isn’t the first time breakfast flavors have found their way onto (and into!) a Sprinkles Cupcake. Back in January the bakery offered four cereal cupcake options! (See our post about the cereal cupcakes here!)

Sprinkles in Disney Springs

But this first returning flavor is a little more subtle. It’s the Stuffed French Toast Cupcake featuring a raspberry-filled yellow cake topped with cinnamon cream cheese frosting dusted with cinnamon sugar! [Read more…]

By 12 Comments

Walt Disney World

guests looking to pick up the adorable and festive Mickey Sipper last week were disappointed to discover that it was sold out at locations in Magic Kingdom. If you recall, this expressive vessel arrived on the scene to celebrate Mickey’s 90th birthday back in November, and it stuck around for the celebration into the new year!

Red Rose Tavern

, the now years-long Beauty and the Beast overlay of Pinocchio Village Haus in Disneyland’s Fantasyland, has offered many lovely rose desserts in the time since the restaurant opened in 2017. It all began with the Lemon Rose Cake in February of that year.

Review and Food Photos: Valentine’s Day Donuts at Disneyland!

By 1 Comment

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, and you just knew the Donut Cart near Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland Park was going to get in on the action. They’ve created two stylish donuts that are as delicious (and sweet!) as they are pretty. The Valentine Donut starts out simple enough with a basic yeast donut. But then… things get pink real fast.

Vanilla glaze is speckled with bright pink sugar sprinkles. Then there’s a swirl of frosting (much more on that in a sec!), and a white and pink heart-sharped marshmallow. [Read more…]

B.B. Wolf’s Sausage Company

, a food kiosk located in Disney World’s Disney Springs, is known for a menu of — what else! — sausages! And recently the menu was overhauled to include a few brand new sausage options.

We tried versions of a couple of the new options way back when B.B. Wolf’s first opened (click here to see: they were just Three Little Pigs at that time!). [Read more…]

By Leave a Comment

Happy Birthday, Disney California Adventure!

Disneyland Resort’s second park opened on February 8, 2001, so DCA is 18 years young today!

After a rocky start, I think DCA has really come into its own. With the addition of Pixar Pier, Guardians of the Galaxy Mission Breakout, and now Marvel Land coming to the park, there’s so much to enjoy and to anticipate!

But today we wanted to celebrate this enterprising little park by sharing some of our favorite treats — old and new — to get at the snack locations and shops around DCA! Let us know which is YOUR favorite!

Hot Link Corn Dog and Cheese Stick Corn Dog — Corn Dog Castle

It’s not a visit to Disneyland Resort without stopping for a corn dog, and one of our favorite spots is Corn Dog Castle! Here you can get a traditional hand-dipped corn dog, but you can also order the Hot Link Corn Dog and the Cheese Stick Corn Dog. See our review here! The Hot Link is a spicy dog coated in classic corn batter. It’s delicious and packs a bit of a punch!

Hot Link Corn Dog

The Cheese Stick Corn Dog is exactly what you think: a stick of cheddar cheese that has been battered and deep fried. [Read more…]
