Disney4me Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Thanks for joining us for this week’s What’s New at Disneyland Resort! Sleeping Beauty Castle We have a lot of news to tell you about from construction updates to new sweet treats, so let’s dive right in! What’s New with the Pixar Pals Parking Structure The construction on Disneyland Resort’s new Pixar Pals parking structure continues to progress. They have added some nice trees and greenery to the surrounding landscape, so we’re expecting the structure to open in the near future! Pixar Pals Parking Structure Construction Pixar Pals Parking Structure Construction We also saw the pedestrian walkway begin to take shape. The bridge will transport guests from the Pixar Pals garage to the Downtown Disney District. Pedestrian Walkway Construction Pedestrian Walkway What’s New in Downtown Disney Making our way to Downtown Disney, we tried Sprinkles’ Pride Cupcake, which has returned for the month of June! Sprinkles Pride Cupcake Sprinkles Pride Cupcake This cupcake is a blend of so many of our favorite things – confetti cake, oodles of sprinkles, and icing! You can try this crazy fun cupcake for $5.95, and you can read all about it here. What’s New in Disneyland Park In case you missed it, Disneyland’s Main Street Cinema has been transformed into a store, selling “cartoons and collectibles”. The inside of the building looks pretty similar to what it was before (in that animated shorts still run inside the cinema), but with the addition of merchandise displays. Main Street Cinema Because this change has brought about concerned comments from fans, we have learned about a response from Disney regarding the cinema, which you can read here. Main Street Cinema Main Street Cinema What’s New in Disneyland Treats and Eats We found some super fun treats in Disneyland this week and we can’t wait to tell you about them! We spotted (and ATE ) FOUR new treats at Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe, including this seasonal Chocolate-Potato-Chip Donut ($5.39). Jolly Holiday Seasonal Donut Jolly Holiday Seasonal Donut To make this unique treat, a long john donut is doused in chocolate and topped with four potato chips, before being drizzled with chocolate sauce and caramel! We really enjoyed this one-of-a-kind donut and hope you will too! Also at Jolly Holiday, we HAD to try the new Steamboat Willie Cupcake! Could it be any more adorable?? (Spoiler alert: it can’t.) Steamboat Willie Cupcake This is a pound cake cupcake with Jolly Holiday’s now-standard textured frosting (this time it seemed to have a subtle cheesecake flavor) and a raspberry (or possibly boysenberry??) filling. It was hands-down our favorite thing we tried during our visit to Jolly Holiday. Steamboat Willie Cupcake Read our full review of the Steamboat Willie Cupcake here! Next, we tried the Goofy Cookies ‘n Milk Macaron ($5.99). Goofy Cookies ‘n Milk Macaron This is a classic macaron with edible cookie dough and “milk” panna cotta. We definitely loved the cookie dough but were not wild about the “milk” part of the treat. It tasted super artificial and had a strange slimy consistency. Goofy Cookies ‘n Milk Macaron Despite the fabulous cookie dough (and the fact that we LOVE Goofy), we were not very fond of this macaron. The last sweet treat we tried at Jolly Holiday was the Tinkerbell Coconut Cheesecake ($5.79). From the buttercream bun to the white chocolate wings, we can’t get over how cute this dessert looks! Tinkerbell Coconut Cheesecake In our opinion, the cheesecake’s taste didn’t quite live up to its look. The coconut flavor was very overwhelming and a bit too strong for us, but if you love coconut, you may love this treat! We did enjoy the creamy texture and the tart flavor. Tinkerbell Coconut Cheesecake If you’re a coconut fan, it wouldn’t hurt to try this one! Heading over to Candy Palace, we couldn’t resist trying a bubblegum-flavored Imagination Pink Cake Pop ($4.99)! Imagination Pink Cake Pop Each Minnie-inspired cake pop consists of vanilla cake dipped in an Imagination Pink-colored white chocolate coating. The pops are sprayed with gold shimmer for a subtle sheen! Imagination Pink Cake Pops We personally didn’t love the bubblegum flavor of the cake pop — too synthetic, and a strange flavor to pair with the cake pop texture. But if you love bubblegum, you may love this as well! Imagination Pink Cake Pop We spotted these cake pops all over Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure, and you can likely find them at any of the confectioneries in the parks and at Marceline’s in Downtown Disney. What’s New in Disney California Adventure In Disney California Adventure’s Hollywood Land, some major construction is taking place between Award Wieners and Mickey’s PhilharMagic. Award Wieners’ seating area is completely restricted, so you might need to grab your food and sit elsewhere. Award Wieners Area Construction Stay tuned for future updates on this refurbishment project! Construction work on the upcoming Marvel Land continues to progress. We can’t wait for this super hero-themed land to open in 2020! Marvel Land Construction Marvel Land Construction Marvel Land Construction In case you missed it, “Tale of the Lion King” made its triumphant debut on June 7! The new show’s name and logo are featured on the park map in celebration. Lion King Guidemap Also coinciding with the new production (and the upcoming live-action Lion King film) are some completely awesome Lion King Drum Popcorn Buckets! Lion King Drum Popcorn Buckets We found these totally unique popcorn buckets at an outdoor vending location for $18.99. Across from the Paradise Gardens Park stage, we found even MORE Lion King merchandise! We’ve gotta be honest, we were tempted to buy way too many of these goodies! Lion King Merch Making our way to Pixar Pier, we noticed a change to the Emotional Whirlwind attraction! Joy from the beloved film Inside Out is now part of the ride’s colorful theming. Emotional Whirlwind Emotional Whirlwind We also noticed that they’re painting the walls near the attraction PURPLE! We love a nice purple wall, don’t we? Give us all the purple! While we were still at Pixar Pier, we stumbled upon meet-and-greets for Bo Peep and Forky! We are MORE than ready for Toy Story 4 to come out (we’re so close!!) and were pumped to see these awesome characters. It’s Bo Peep! Bo Peep By the way — how cute is Forky? So cute I can’t handle it. Forky!! What’s New in Downtown Disney’s Shops and Stores We have a LOT of new merch to tell you about this week! Kicking off our shopping spree at World of Disney, we spotted the most adorable Dug Loungefly ($80.00)! Isn’t Dug the cutest? The bag is complete with Dug’s charming characteristics, including his excited eyes, heartwarming smile, and big brown nose. As an added bonus, the inside of the Loungefly is covered with line drawings from the Pixar film Up. Dug Loungefly The price is a bit steep for this one, but it’s almost too cute to resist! Also at World of Disney, we saw the Imagination Pink and Magic Mirror Metallic color collections! Minnie Ears!

Briar Rose Gold Pet Ears At the Emporium in Disneyland, the new Disney Parks Loungefly collection caught our eye!
