Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Food Updates
Capt. Cook’s
The 50th Anniversary Cupcake at the Polynesian Village Resort recently got a serious downgrade. When we had it last year, it was topped with a Pineapple Macaron, Buttercream Icing, and Graham Cracker Crumbs, with a DOLE Whip Pineapple Custard filling. Dole Whip — IN THE CUPCAKE. It was perfection.
Before
But now, it’s a Vanilla Cupcake with Pineapple Cream Cheese Filling topped with Pineapple Icing, a Chocolate Pineapple, and a Glitter-covered Flower. Um…what?
50th Celebration Cupcake
Although it’s still pretty, the flavors just aren’t as good. It’s available, though, at both Kona Cafe and Capt. Cook’s for $5.99.
