Back in October 2021, Disney World kicked off its 18-month long 50th Anniversary celebration!
In honor of the celebration, we’ve seen a TON of new things pop up around the parks and resorts. That includes new merchandise, entertainment, decor, and, of course, ALLLLL of the snacks! Some of the specialty snacks aren’t scheduled to be around for the entire 18-month celebration. In fact, we’ve already seen a bunch of anniversary treats disappear AND a group of new ones make their debut.
And now we’ve got another new celebratory treat to add to our must-try list! Over in Disney Springs, Vivoli il Gelato is serving up a new 50th-anniversary snack that sounds super RICH…in more ways than one!
The Cookies and Cream Luxe Shake is a twist on a classic cookies and cream shake that’s topped with edible gold!
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen this fancy topping at Vivoli il Gelato. Back at the start of the celebration, they released another 50th-themed shake called the Golden Jubilee, which was a white chocolate hazelnut shake topped with — you guessed it — edible gold!
If you’re looking for a pretty dessert to add a little extra sparkle to your Instagram feed, swing by Vivoli il Gelato to try out the Cookies and Cream Luxe. We’ll continue to be on the lookout for new additions to the menus around Disney World, so stay tuned to DFB for all the latest updates!
