food IS a theme park
Tie up those laces, racers, because the themes for the 2020 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend have officially been announced by runDisney!

And from January 8-12, 2020…Disney’s throwing it back with retro-inspired race themes.
Last month, the spitting camel which stands in front of The Magic Carpets of Aladdin in Magic Kingdom’s Adventureland had suddenly gone missing. We were pretty sure that it was just being taken back for a little renovation.

And that must’ve been the case, because POOF! The camel has returned to its original spot! But, oddly enough, it seems to be acting a little strange…
We’re back at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Walt Disney World to bring you a few What’s New updates from the Park! Come along as we share new construction walls (yes, new…), some new-to-us merchandise, and a couple of menu changes!
Hooray for Hollywood!
On Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood Brown Derby has removed Braised Beef Short Rib from its menu. [Read more…]
The heat is on in central Florida, where summer comes early and stays late, but if you’re at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, Pineapple Lanai is the place to go to stay cool. That’s because you’ll find Dole Whip here year-round — including two recent additions: Lime and Lemon. We turned these into a sweet swirl with a Dole Whip hack a couple weeks ago, and now… there’s MORE!
Raspberry Dole Whip has arrived at Pineapple Lanai! And it gets better: guests can swirl it with lime for what’s angling to be the most refreshing frozen treat in the World!
Raspberry-Lime Dole Whip Swirl at Pineapple Lanai!
Our pal Kristen from WDWforGrownups.com gave us a peek at this treat, and let’s just say, we need to get our hot little hands on it ASAP! [Read more…]
All-Star Movies seems to be rolling out lots of delicious snack options lately. I mean we literally just reviewed a SUPER yummy Peaches and Cream cupcake that happens to be the perfect summer treat.
Key Lime Cheesecake
And now, we’ve tried the NEW Key Lime Cheesecake treat as well! We’ve seen cheesecakes like this before, but this one seems to be a little different.
Okay, my fellow cupcake lovers. If you know us you know we love tasting and reviewing our way through all that Disney has to offer…but we always seem to get really excited when we find new cupcake options.
From the new Imagination Pink cupcake to the new bird cupcake at Animal Kingdom, we’ve really been getting our fill of icing lately. (But it’s never enough.)
Peaches and Cream Cupcake
And today we found another new cupcake we’re super excited about! And that icing happened to be the best part! (:
When Walt Disney World first announced a forthcoming option for guests and Annual Passholders to upgrade their MagicBands, we heard from a ton of DFB readers and followers who couldn’t wait to partake in this fun, personalized option.
But since the bands became available to order on Monday (see the announcement here!), we’ve heard a lot more about glitches than successes.

If you’re one of the many who attempted to order a Disney icon, character, or snack MagicBand and met with limited (if any!) success, you’re not alone! [Read more…]
Welcome to another What’s New from Walt Disney World’s Epcot! We’ll be strolling through Future World and World Showcase to give you a look at construction, merchandise, and FOOD! Grab your passport, and let’s stroll!

Recently we told you about Disney’s plan to sell limited-release Mickey Ear Hats and Minnie Ear Headbands designed by celebrities and fashion designers, and now, we’ve got a FIRST LOOK at some seriously blinged-out ears from designer Vera Wang. Wang, who’s celebrated for her fabulous wedding dresses (among, of course, so much more!), has designed a pair of Minnie Ears that are ready for a walk down the aisle!
Vera Wang’s Designer Minnie Ears
Wang revealed the ears on her design house’s Instagram @VeraWangGang and described them as “the very first prototype”. [Read more…]
