What’s New in Menu Updates and Eats

In case you missed it, from now until September 2, 2019, guests can visit over 20 locations throughout Disney Springs to enjoy fun, Florida-themed dishes along with refreshing cocktails. Many of this week’s new food items are special Flavors of Florida items. Read all about the Flavors of Florida event here!

Kicking things off at Amorette’s Patisserie, we spotted a Father’s Day Macaron ($5.00) AND the new Blood Orange Mousse ($8.00).

The Father’s Day Macarons were likely only a limited-time offering, but the Blood Orange Mousse is here for the summer as part of the Flavors of Florida dining event!

The mousse is remarkably light and airy, and bursts with citrus flavor. And the grapefruit gelée center, which we thought might be too intense, was actually quite enjoyable.

Our next stop is The Ganachery, where we found treats inspired by Toy Story 4 and the new Imagination Pink line!

Making our way to Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar, we tackled the TEMPLE OF BACON ($13)! Thick-cut Applewood Smoked Bacon is doused in Ganachery Milk Chocolate, AND drizzled with Chipotle Ganache to create this insanely awesome treat.

Over at Joffrey’s store in Disney Springs, we spotted the wonderfully colorful donuts for Pride month and a sign for character “donut art”!

Yep, you read that right. For 50 cents, you can add a Disney character to your Boston Cream donut. How awesome is that?

Continuing to conquer Disney Springs food, we popped by Morimoto Asia, where they’re offering a GATOR Tail Waffle Cone as part of the Flavors of Florida event.

It IS real gator, but it tastes quite a bit like orange chicken! If you want to try it for yourself, you DON’T need a reservation to order it. You can get it at the bar if you don’t want to make a reservation.

The Polite Pig has also gotten in on the Flavors of Florida action and introduced a Smoked Prime Rib Slider ($7) and Florida Mango Frosé ($11).

The slider is served with a citrus aïoli and a green papaya horseradish slaw and we absolutely LOVED it. We enjoyed the new beverage as well. It’s a fresh mango purée with sparkling rosé and citrus, topped with an orange slice and a cherry.

Wrapping up our Disney Springs food tour, we spotted Sprinkles’ Old-Fashioned Cupcake for Father’s Day. This one only returned for Father’s Day weekend, so it may be gone by the time your there. We couldn’t resist including it though!

At Disney Style, we found the new Disney Parks Loungefly Mini collection! It features some of our favorite Disney Parks icons, from Space Mountain to the Country Bears!

Moving on to Pin Traders, they released a new limited edition pin ($17.99) inspired by Chip from Beauty and the Beast. It looks a bit like a video game, and when you turn the pin he jumps over plates! It’s super cool.

We aren’t sure if these items are still available after Father’s Day, but they might still have some left.

We also noticed a pastel purple Minnie Messaging throw ($49.99) and pillow ($34.99). We hadn’t seen these before and thought they were super cute!
