We spend a day in a (very crowded!) EPCOT to check out all of the latest additions to the park!

Who’s ready for a trip to EPCOT?? We found some delicious new snacks, the return of highly coveted merch, and MORE! So without further ado, let’s dive into all of the food, merchandise, and attractions updates since our last visit!

EPCOT Food Updates

Karamell-Küche

Over in the Germany Pavilion, we spotted some new sweet treats in Karamell-Küche! That’s right, there are TWO new cookies available, which are both drizzled in Werther’s caramel. There’s the Chocolate S’more Cookie, which had a rich, brownie-like texture…

…and the Salted Pretzel Chocolate Chip Cookie, which had tons of crunch thanks to the toffee and pretzels packed inside!

Both of these delicious new cookies are available for $4.59 each!

Check out our full review and more photos of both cookies!

Islands of the Caribbean Booth

Even though there’s only one week left in this year’s EPCOT Food and Wine Festival, we noticed yet another change at one of the festival booths! The Playalinda Brewing Company Tropical Wonderland Wheat Ale is now BACK at the Islands of the Caribbean booth.

The booth has offered this beer before, but on a recent visit, a Cast Member let us know they were out and had replaced it with a Lemon Hefeweizen Beer by First Magnitude Brewing Company. But it looks like the Tropical Wonderland beer has now made its triumphant return!

Guests can order a 6-ounce pour for $4.50 or a 12-ounce pour for $8.50.

Beverage Cart

While strolling past a beverage cart located between The Land and the Imagination Pavilion, we spotted the Frozen 2 Sipper!

Previously, we’ve seen the sipper at Kringla Bakeri og Cafe with the Frozen Orange Cream Soda during last year’s holiday season. But now it’s back at a new location!

Guests visiting the cart can get the Frozen 2 Sipper with their choice of a fountain drink or a slush for $11.50.

EPCOT Merchandise Updates

Mouse Gear

We noticed that the popular Spaceship Earth Cookie Jar was available at Mouse Gear. And it looks like this is still a hot commodity — there were only two left on the shelf when we were there!

If you’re lucky enough to get your hands on one, you can snag it for $39.99.

Check out more photos of the Spaceship Earth Cookie Jar!

La Bottega Italiana

And another highly coveted piece of merch has made its return at La Bottega Italiana in the Italy Pavilion. The Pizza Minnie Ears are back in stock!

If you want to add this pair of ears to your collection, you can grab them for $29.99.

Seriously, check out how CUTE the Pizza Ears are!

EPCOT Attractions Updates

Living with the Land

We took a ride on Living with the Land to see whether any more holiday decorations have been added since we last checked.

We didn’t spot any new decorations this time around, but we’ll continue to keep an eye on this attraction in case they continue to deck it out further!

Check out more pictures of the holiday decorations on Living with the Land!

World Showcase

There were some SUPER heavy crowds throughout World Showcase on our visit! In fact, the Mexico Pavilion pyramid reached capacity and there was a 2.5-hour line to get inside.

The line for Frozen Ever After stretched back to the China Pavilion.

And we also noticed long lines for many of the food and drink locations throughout the World Showcase.

There were some areas where the crowd was noticeably lighter like we experienced while walking through the United Kingdom Pavilion.

So, if you’re heading to EPCOT soon, keep in mind that you could experience some hefty crowds, especially throughout the World Showcase!

And that does it for our most recent trip to EPCOT! We’ll continue heading out to all of the Disney World parks and resorts to see what’s new. So be sure to stay tuned for all of the latest updates!
