Disney4me Posted May 5, 2019 Report Share Posted May 5, 2019 Greetings from the Magic Kingdom! We have plenty of updates for you from our most recent visit including tons of new merchandise, construction updates, and more. Lots is happening at MK — including new sweet treats! Magic Kingdom So let’s get started, shall we? Before we even got inside the park, we noticed the incredible construction outside of the park is still underway. Main Entrance Construction Main Entrance Construction You can see a bit of stone work among the construction, although it’s still TBD on what this will officially be! What’s New on Main Street U.S.A. We walked right down the middle of Main Street U.S.A. — and directly into the Main Street Bakery where they are displaying the Spring Seasonals menu! Spring Seasonal Drinks Fans of the Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino, S’mores Frappuccino, and Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino will be delighted that these Starbucks drinks are available to enjoy during your day in the park. Also, in Casey’s Corner we tried out the NEW Celebration Brownie! Mickey Celebration Brownie This simple but actually pretty delicious brownie is available now through June. You can read our full review here! What’s New in Adventureland Arggggh mateys! Pirates who planned to eat at Tortuga Tavern should note the restaurant is now currently under refurbishment. Tortuga Tavern Refurbishment Tortuga Tavern Refurbishment No news on when the Quick Service location is set to re-open, but we will keep you posted of course! For now, we recommend moseying on over to Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe for lunch. We also LOVED the new “Wish Granted” Donut from Sunshine Tree Terrace. Wish Granted Donut You can read our full review of this magical treat here! What’s New in Fantasyland A few items caught our eye under the tent at Big Top Treats! For starters, we always enjoyed Goofy Glaciers here, but now it looks like they are introducing a Flavor of the Month! Goofy’s Glaciers Flavor of the Month This month, they are featuring the Raspberry Lemonade Razzle Dazzle. YUM! Goofy’s Glaciers We also spotted something we haven’t seen in a long, long, long, long time… Pre-packaged Treats at Big Top Treats …pre-packaged treats!! These have always been available at the Main Street Confectionary, but they’ve returned to the circus. We spotted an assortment of “grab & go” Caramel Apples, as well as Rice Krispie Treats. Pre-packaged Treats at Big Top Treats What’s New in Tomorrowland We quickly noticed a bunch of walls around Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe… Cosmic Ray’s Refurbishment …and the water’s still gone from the moat and river. Cosmic Ray’s Refurbishment Which means that Cosmic Ray’s is still getting its paint job! Don’t worry — you can still dine with Sonny Eclipse as the restaurant is still open as usual. Cosmic Ray’s Refurbishment Also in the vein of construction updates, we have updated photos from the Tron Coaster!! Tron Coaster Construction This new state-of-the-art coaster is set to open in time for Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary in 2021. Tron Coaster Construction Tron Coaster Construction Meanwhile at The Lunching Pad, a Carved Roast Beef Sandwich has joined the menu. Lunching Pad Menu This new sandwich comes topped with Horseradish, Spring Mix, and Balsamic. The Carved Roast Beef Sandwich replaced the Barbecued Pork Sandwich, but never fear, it’s still available mere footsteps away at Cosmic Ray’s. We tried the NEW Mickey Milkshake at Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies. Mickey Milkshake You can read our full review on this tasty treat here!

We also found the cutest way possible to help protect you from germs: these new-to-us Star Wars Hand Sanitziers! Star Wars Hand Sanitizers We spotted these in Mickey Star Traders in Tomorrowland and the Emporium on Main Street U.S.A. And speaking of the Emporium, look at this adorable Simba necklace we found there!
