Every child dreams of going to Walt Disney World, and every (most?) parent dreams of taking them there.
For many families, though, the cost of the trip can seem insurmountable: gas if you’re driving there, plane tickets, and the cost of visiting the park itself.

Audiences worldwide have been waiting for The Incredibles 2 for a while. Fourteen years, to be exact. Now that the movie is here, there’s been a surge of Incredibles inspired food, and of course, Disney World is doing it best. The theme park is now offering food inspired by the Pixar movies in the Tomorrowland section of Magic Kingdom.
Bing Bong, the fluffy pink, imaginary friend from the Disney•Pixar film “Inside Out” is bringing some sweet treats at his new shop at Disney California Adventure® Park!

Here’s a sneak peek at just a few of the exciting treats to look forward to!
Let’s start with the cake pops – If you’ve seen the adorable Nemo and Baby Dory Cake Pops available for Pixar Fest, you’ll be excited to learn that they will be part of a series of seasonal “Buddy” Cake Pops offered at Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff! Every so often, these pops will change out to feature new characters, such as Wall•E and Eve, or Buzz and Woody. In addition, your Clients will find cake pops inspired by “Inside Out,” featuring some of your favorite emotions.
Next up are the awesome apples, like the Rainbow Unicorn Apple or the Bing Bong Apple. These Granny Smith apples are dipped in caramel and chocolate and decorated with colored sugar, fondant and marshmallows, and are definitely treats to satisfy a sweet tooth!
Also available at Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff will be an array of Pixar-themed popcorn, lollipops and candies, including Lemon Drops, Red Licorice and Sour Apple Balls. Saltwater taffy lovers can enjoy an assortment of flavors like Strawberry Banana and Peaches and Cream. Rainbow cotton candy will also be available in flavors like Blue Raspberry and Orange.
Lastly, the shop will serve Memory Refreshers – frozen drinks that will come in all colors and flavors! One of the drinks is the Rainbow Unicorn, with grape soda, blue raspberry soda, lime, cherry, lemon-lime and rainbow candies. Another one is inspired by Bing Bong himself, Imaginary Pal, which will be made with pink lemonade and grape soda with rainbow cotton candy, topped with a marshmallow flower.

If you have ever wondered when the next bus is going to arrive at their Disney Resort hotel, the answer will now be right at their fingertips.
Today, we’re rolling out a brand new bus time feature in the My Disney Experiencemobile app that enables you to spend less time waiting at the bus stop and more time getting ready for a fun-filled day in the parks. With this feature, you can quickly discover up-to-the-minute estimates for when the next buses will depart from their Disney Resort hotel and when they will complete their journey to their destination.
The app regularly updates in real time to provide the most current estimates for buses heading to all four theme parks, two water parks and the Disney Springs® area. Guests can access the feature throughout their stay by tapping “See Bus Times” when viewing an active Disney Resort hotel reservation associated with their account.
You may also notice that this My Disney Experience update brings a new and improved design to the app, making it easier than ever for you to navigate and find what they’re looking for – from the new bus time feature and mobile food ordering service to adding tickets, booking FastPass+ selections and discovering key park offerings.
This is just the most recent example of how Disney is using digital technology to make the Guest experience even more convenient. During the past year alone, we have added app features that allow Guests to view room charges, keep track of Disney dining plan usage, check in online to start their vacation even faster, use their mobile devices as a digital key (now available at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge and coming soon to additional Disney Resort hotels) and more.
You can explore all that’s new inMy Disney Experience by updating to the current version of the app, now available in the Apple Store for iOS devices and Google Play for Android devices.
Everyone knows the best part of Disney is the food (there, we said it). While you might be inclined to grab a copious amount of churros, turkey legs, and Mickey-shaped everything while roaming the parks, these restaurants might convince you to save room for something a little more special.
