Fantasyland Cinderella Castle Fun Fact

Fantasyland Cinderella Castle Fun Fact

If you're and avid Disney fan, then you know what I mean when I use the term "Disney detail". Disney has always been known for their attention to detail, in both their movies and parks. Our next fun fact/ hidden gem, is in Cinderella Castle. If you know your Disney Imagineers and have a sharp eye then you’ve probably already found this one. In the mural scene inside the walkway in Cinderella’s Castle, where prince Charming has placed the glass slipper on Cinderella’s foot, you will find two Disney Imagineers. If you look to the far left of the mural, there is a man standing and that is John Hench, and then the man standing directly behind the prince is Herbert Ryman. Hench and Ryman, if you didn’t know, were the lead designers of Cinderella Castle.

One little spark, of inspiration Is at the heart, of all creation. Right at the start, of everything that’s new. One little spark, lights up for you. Two tiny wings, eyes big and yellow. Horn of a steer, but a lovable fellow. From head to tail, he’s royal purple pigment. And there, Viola!, you’ve got a Figment! We all have sparks, imaginations. That’s how our minds, create creations. For they can make, our wildest dreams come true. Those magic sparks, in me and you. Imagination, imagination. A dream, can be a dream come true. With just that spark, in me and you.

Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party 2015

When the Halloween decorations make their way to the Magic Kingdom we know that Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party isn't too far behind. Now every year Disney likes to debut some very special treats for aforementioned party. So without further ado let's take a peak at these wonderfully themed snacks!!

First up is the creepy-crawly Spider Cupcake! This is a chocolate cupcake with a nice little edible spider on top and you can find him in the Main Street Bakery!

Next to the creepy-crawly spider cupcake you will also be able to find the vanilla Monster cupcake also available in the Main Street Bakery!

Now when you think Halloween what is the first thing that comes to mind? If you said ghost then yay because that brings us to the next treat. Which is a Ghost cupcake! Now this is a returning treat, but it's had a makeover. This year the Ghost cupcake has a chocolate base (it was vanilla the previous year) and is topped with butter cream icing, dusted with cookie crumbs and has a lovely fondant ghost propped up on top with a marshmallow under it!! This tasty treat can be found at Gaston's Tavern back in "New" Fantasyland!

Who doesn't love a nice ice cream sandwich every now and then? Well if you would like one while at Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party then look no further than the Plaza Ice Cream Parlor on Main Street U.S.A!! Stop in there and get a Handmade Halloween Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich! You won't regret it, trust me!!

Candy Corn the unofficial symbol of all things Halloween! If you love candy corn then you're going to love the next two treats that are making an appearance this year. The first one is a Candy Corn Cone, it is Candy Corn Soft-Serve Ice Cream and it even comes with a cone FILLED with candy corn!! You can find this at Storybook Treats.

The final special treat at this years Halloween Party is Candy Corn Cotton Candy. Yup you heard me candy corn cotton candy, this will be available at various carts and kiosks around the Magic Kingdom! However there is a twist, the vibrantly colored candy-corn inspired layers offer different flavors: original sugar, pina colada and orange!!

So are you attending Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this year? If so which treat are you wanting to try the most?

Wishing you all a Happy and wonderful Thanksgiving!!! I have been MIA for awhile now so I'm going to try and get this blog back on a schedule and post more often!
