Good morning from EPCOT!
We just spent a beautiful day wandering around the park to see what’s new in food, merchandise, and construction, so here we go!
EPCOT Food Updates
Popcorn Carts
In case you’re looking for the Mickey Christmas Tree Popcorn Bucket, most popcorn carts at EPCOT currently have them in stock for $25.
These are the classic green Christmas tree buckets we saw last year, AND they light up! The buckets sold out super quickly last year, so act fast if you want one this year.

Japan Pavilion
We’ve already tried so many awesome Lay’s chips flavors (including the Honey Butter Chips) at the China Pavilion, but we just spotted some Hokkaido Butter Potato Sticks in Japan!
A bag of these babies is $3.49.
Here is our review of the Honey Butter Chips from Japan
House of Good Fortune
Over at the House of Good Fortune in the China Pavilion we spotted the Volcano Popping Candy. This pavilion is known for having some unique snacks and this one definitely looks super fun!
Each bag is $3.95 and features these adorable little creatures.

Spain Booth
Although the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival is winding down and will end later this month, there is still a lot of yummy food to be found, like the Charcuterie for $6.50 at the Spain Booth.
This is a selection of imported Spanish meats, cheeses, and olives with an herb vinaigrette. We absolutely loved this snack from the festival!

The Tea Caddy
We checked to see what was new over at The Tea Caddy at the U.K. Pavilion and discovered that Gingerbread Tea is officially in stock!
There’s also a tea sale going on right now! Guests can get boxes of Twinings Tea for $5 each when you buy four. These boxes are regularly $5.99 each.
We spotted Alice in Wonderland in the UK Pavilion!
EPCOT Merchandise Updates
Mouse Gear
We spotted the Hercules Alex and Ani Bangle at Mouse Gear! This bangle features a charm with Zeus’ lightning bolt on it.
We have previously seen this online, but this is the first time we’ve seen it in the parks! This bracelet costs $44.99.

We also spotted some cool new shirts! We love this Pink Long-Sleeve Walt Disney World Shirt with the retro logo and castle. This shirt is $39.99.
We also found this super cute Walt Disney World Raglan Shirt for $44.99. We like the circular Walt Disney World logo around the castle!
Then there’s this Walt Disney World Sweatshirt for $54.99. This is such a fun color combination with pink, dark grey, and white!
We also spotted some new kids’ sweaters, including a black Mickey Walt Disney World Sweater for $39.99.
We’re also digging this Minnie Walt Disney World Sweater. The red is so vibrant and fun for the parks!
This sweater is also $39.99.

Norway Pavilion
We noticed that the navy Norway Mickey Jacket is back in stock, along with the white and red colors!
This jacket is $175 in the Norway Pavilion.

Germany Pavilion
We found an AWESOME limited edition Germany MagicBand at Glas und Porzellan at the Germany Pavilion. The MagicBand features Mickey and Minnie wearing traditional German outfits, along with German snacks, cuckoo clocks, flags, and beer.
The Germany MagicBand is $34.99. This MagicBand is a limited edition so grab it while you can!

EPCOT Construction Updates
Now that Frozen Ever After has reopened after its refurb, we noticed that the queue system goes through China when the line gets long.
Not only are there physical distancing markers, but there is an entire queue set up!

France Pavilion
We also took a peek at the current construction going on over at the France Pavilion, particularly with Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure. Everything looked the same as last time, but we’ve seen SO much progress recently!
It’s coming right along — we can’t wait until this attraction opens!
That’s it for our walk around EPCOT this time, and we had a blast checking out the latest in the park. We’ll back soon to let you know what else is new!
UPDATE! EPCOT Extends Park Hours for Select Dates in January!
