food IS a theme park
Yesterday, we shared Disney’s latest color trend — Arendelle Aqua!

This new color, which is inspired by Frozen, will hit the Disney scene on September 13th. But, if you’re a Disney World Annual Passholder, you will have the opportunity to purchase select Arendelle Aqua snacks and merchandise in advance!
Epcot is busy with the International Festival of the Arts starting this Friday — we’ll be reporting live from opening day — but we still found new must-have food-themed merchandise being added to the shops as well as new drinks, sweet eats, teas, and construction progress — we’ve got it all covered!
Hello from Epcot
Let’s jump in with that brand new space-themed restaurant near Mission: Space opening in 2020!
Our stroll around the world today had us sipping on a brand new spiked slush — a Troll Kreme. With a name like that you can guess we spotted this picture-perfect slush in Epcot’s Norway pavilion!

You know, a drink is always a lot more fun when it is topped with whipped cream…but was this Troll Kreme a delight or not?
We had a case of wanderlust this week, and instead of getting out the passport and packing, we just hopped over to spend the day in Epcot. Our journey started with some time spent in Future World, followed by a trip around the World Showcase. And boy, did we find a lot new eats and buys for you on this “trip”!
