Hello, DFB friends, from EPCOT!
It was a chilly day at the park, but we bundled up and got the latest updates to share with you!
EPCOT Food Updates
Pop Eats
One of the details we loved about the tomato soup served at Pop Eats is that it comes in a mini can! But we haven’t seen the soup cans recently, and today, the cans were still missing. The soup was still being served in paper cups.
We hope to see the soup cans return soon!

EPCOT Merchandise Updates
Michael Maiden
One of the art booths featured the work of sculptor Michael Maiden, who makes GORGEOUS bronze tables. In fact, he is currently the only sculptor in the world commissioned by Disney, and you can understand why when you see his work!
There are only 330 tables like these in the world. So, they’re super pricey and run between $29,000 and $35,000. Guests can meet Maiden in EPCOT between February 4th and February 11th.
See more photos of Michael Maiden’s tables!
Mouse Gear
How do you know it’s a bit chilly out? Stores start rolling out the racks with jackets! Mouse Gear had some cool weather gear at the ready!
We spotted two new pairs of adjustable ears at Mouse Gear, including the classic Minnie Adjustable Ears! They’re classic Minnie Ears with a bright red polka dot bow! SO stylish!
We also found Rose Gold Adjustable Ears!
These ears are $24.99 each!
See more photos of the adjustable ears!
We’re also starting to see some new movie merchandise in the parks, too, like the Raya and the Last Dragon Pin! We can’t wait until this movie comes out. Note: We also spotted this pin at Pin Traders! This pin is $12.99.
The Child Streetwear collection has officially landed at Disney World! We found the grey long-sleeve t-shirt with Baby Yoda (aka Grogu) on the front…
…and “The Kid” on the back. This shirt is $34.99.
There’s also a hoodie with The Child on the front left…
…and “The Child” on the back.
The hoodie is $54.99.
See more photos of The Child streetwear we found at Disney World!
Pin Traders
Also, remember how we said it was a little cold? The Pin Trading Booth had actually moved INSIDE Pin Traders so people could stay warm while they’re doing their pin trading!
A little cold weather doesn’t stop us from enjoying Disney World, though!

Gateway Gifts
In case you need to pick up some chocolates for Valentine’s Day, we’ve seen the same boxes of chocolates pretty much all over Disney World now, including at Gateway Gifts.
These boxes feature truffles, as well as a chocolate card!
Mexico Pavilion
We found a new shirt at the Mexico Pavilion. It’s a white, cropped long-sleeve shirt that says, “Mexico EPCOT World Showcase,” across the front. Plus, it has a hood!
This shirt is available now for $39.99.

EPCOT General Updates
Chalk Art
One of the fun things to see at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts is the chalk art spread throughout the park. We managed to catch an artist at work on a new piece!
We can’t wait to see what it looks like when it’s done!
Why THIS Is the EPCOT Festival You Should Really Check Out!
We had a great time at EPCOT, despite the cool weather! And we’ll be back soon with even more updates, so stay tuned!
