food IS a theme park
Hello to all our DFB readers!
We’re back!
We recently went on a trip to Disneyland Resort to see what’s been happening since we were there last, and we have a TON of updates. So buckle up, keep your hands and feet inside the ride vehicle, and let’s get going!
Hello, everyone! We’re over on the West Coast checking out everything going on at Disneyland Resort!
Downtown Disney
And BOY, is there a LOT going on. Not only is Disneyland reopening soon, but we just got some details about an expansion of the resort (!!!), AND then ate one of the most controversial snacks we’ve probably ever had!
So many of us Disney fans have rooms in our house devoted to the Mouse and everything else Disney. Or ENTIRE houses devoted to Disney. Or we, at least, have lots of Disney stuff spread throughout our homes (guilty!!!).
SO much Disney stuff!
After all, Disney makes it way too easy to get Disney kitchenware, bedroom gear, and more.
Today, we’re taking you on a very special behind-the-scenes journey!
Cinderella Castle
We’re going to find out what life at Disney World is like from a non-guest’s perspective. That’s right — we’re diving into the deep secret lives of Disney’s Cast Members!
Remember how we told you that the super adorable ABC Disney Collection had shown up on shopDisney?
Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland
Well, as you may recall from the in-park collections, there were some letters in the new line of alphabet-themed merch that had special designs specifically for Disneyland! And now it looks like a few of THOSE styles have started showing up online as well!
We have news on a popular attraction out in Disneyland!
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Back in August, a large chunk of the faux-mountain fell off the Matterhorn Bobsleds at Disneyland forcing the closure of one side of the mountain. Now, we finally have an update!
If you’ve visited Disneyland, you’ll likely remember the 147-foot-tall mountain standing in the park (quite majestically, we might add).
Disneyland’s Matterhorn
Although we love hopping on the bobsleds inspired by Switzerland‘s actual Matterhorn, the epic escape from the Abominable Snowman will be taking a hiatus over the next week.
The Disneyland Monorail, Matterhorn Bobsleds, and Submarine Voyage are three of Disneyland’s oldest and most iconic attractions. Today, we were lucky enough to attend a special media event celebrating the 60th anniversary of these beloved Disneyland rides.
Disneyland Monorail
During the event, we not only had the opportunity to ride each attraction but we also heard from a Disney Archivist about the history of each one. Take a journey with us back in time as we fill you in on what we learned!

Matterhorn Macaroon
This Matterhorn Macaroon, named and shaped after the famous Matterhorn mountain icon in Disneyland, is a new arrival on the snack scene in the west coast park.
A “mountain” of coconutty goodness dipped in white chocolate “snow,” it’s a fun reminder of the other times Disney’s made edible representations of their well known iconic structures — castles, Mickey Mouse, and Spaceship Earth being just a [Read more…]
