Mother’s Day weekend saw the introduction of a few treats. At Restaurantosaurus and Creature Comforts, moms could enjoy this Mother’s Day Cupcake, complete with odd, melty transfer.

There are always new things to discover in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! This week we wandered through the newly re-opened Tree of Life Garden, enjoyed cupcakes as well as some Tasting Sampler treats that are sticking around, found a spot serving Irish Coffee, and spotted new Lion King Family Pride shirts for the whole family!
Hello from the Animal Kingdom!
Now that the Otter Grotto is open, the Tree of Life Garden paths are completely open again, too; they were blocked during the refurbishment of the Otter Grotto. We enjoyed a walk along the garden path on our visit.
Would you just look at what’s roared into Disney’s Animal Kingdom?
Tiger Cupcake
The Tiger Cupcake is currently found in the bakery case at Creature Comforts, the park’s Starbucks location, and at Restaurantosaurus in Dinoland, U.S.A. [Read more…]
Our next adventure in the parks took us to Animal Kingdom on the search for new food, new merchandise and any updates for you!
Animal Kingdom’s Tree of Life
We were excited to see and say “welcome back” to a cupcake friend featuring Lion King‘s Simba as our day in the park started at Creature Comforts.
Hello from a rainy Animal Kingdom! The rain might have kept a few people away… but not us 😉 ! Umbrella in hand, we explored the park and found all the new items, changes, and more for you!
Hello from Animal Kingdom!
Here’s everything we found including new sweets, menu updates, new merchandise, and the arrival of the 2019 Walt Disney World mugs!
There’s been no shortage of adorable cupcakes popping up at Walt Disney World this holiday season, like this whimsical Rainbow Unicorn Cupcake or this incredibly detailed Snowman Cupcake. We’ve got another new cupcake review for you today: the Mickey Christmas Tree Cupcake!

So where can you find this super-cute sweet treat, and how does it taste?
There were a few announcements from Disney today about new menus, additions, and more at popular locations in both Disneyland and Disney World. We’ve already tried some of these items, and the rest are on our to-try list, so stay tuned for reviews and updates! We’ll start out in Disneyland with the brand new menu we reviewed earlier for you.
Cherry Coca Cola Funnel Cake
Disneyland’s Hungry Bear has a brand new menu that includes this Cherry Coca-Cola Funnel Cake plus new sandwiches and burgers.
In Disney World, at Epcot’s Coral Reef Restaurant, you’ll now find a whole stuffed Maine lobster that comes with crispy baby potatoes, asparagus, béarnaise sauce, lemon, and butter. Read our latest review of Coral Reef Restaurant and see if we thought it could rise to the surface or not.
Back in July, we told you about Animal Kingdom’s newest place to chill out: Restaurantosaurus Lounge. At the time, it was described as undergoing a three month trial period and had limited hours from 5PM to closing. But we loved the concept, particularly as indoor air conditioned places to rest our adventuring feet are always welcome in Walt Disney World’s largest park.

That said, as much as we love the concept, sticking a “lounge” in a corner of a counter service restaurant does not make for a relaxing retreat. We’ll give you our full thoughts at the end of this article, but first — some details… .
A trip to the Animal Kingdom is always wild for us as we find so many updates each week! Find out what we found in new menu items, seasonal treats, and merchandise this week!
Hello from the Animal Kingdom
The first thing we found were updated ticket prices at the ticket windows. 🙁
