Magic Kingdom is THE place to be right now, which probably explains why it’s nearly impossible to get park pass reservations there this week.
A lot of that has to do with the official opening of TRON Lightcycle / Run, but we’re also seeing a lot of Spring Break crowds, Easter crowds, and Happily Ever After fans showing up in the parks. While all that is going on, though, we’ve been checking out everything new, so let’s get on with some updates.
Magic Kingdom Food Updates
Plaza Ice Cream Parlour
One of our favorite ice cream sundaes has finally returned. The All-American Sundae has Old-Fashioned Vanilla and Chocolate Ice Cream topped with Hot Fudge, Peanut Butter Drizzle, Whipped Cream, and a Cherry. It sounds simple, sure, but that’s what makes it so perfect. Plus PEANUT BUTTER DRIZZLE!
You can grab it now for $7.29.

Friar’s Nook
A Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party snack has returned to the regular menu at Friar’s Nook. It’s the Curry Brat Tots for $11.49. These ar tots topped with chopped bratwurst, curry ketchup, and apple slaw.
A NEW snack is available here, too. The Caramel Apple Pecan Hand Pie is a fried, empanada-like dessert pastry filled with caramel apple-pecan and drizzled with vanilla custard sauce for $5.99.
Yes, it seems like it should be a fall dessert, but we don’t care because it’s YUMMY.

Joffrey’s Revive
You can get a new frappe at Joffrey’s in Tomorrowland in honor of the new ride here. It’s The Legacy Frappe for $6.49. It’s a blue raspberry frappe blended with a “splash” of POWERADE Mountain Berry.
It’s topped with whipped cream and blue sprinkles.

Gaston’s Tavern
The Master’s Cupcake, aka the Grey Stuff Cupcake, has returned to Disney World. It’s a Chocolate Cupcake topped with “The Grey Stuff” and crispy Pearls. It also got a little bit of a makeover.
However, it’s still as delicious as ever. Try the Grey Stuff — it’s delicious!
