Over at Tiffins Restaurant you can get your taste buds on an Easter Basket which is actually a mango and mixed berry cake, lemon cake, vanilla meringue, marshmallow variations, Kataifi, berry coulis, and mango chantilly. I don’t know what some of those things are but that makes me want to try it even more! I mean look how delectable it is!

Epcot

Coral Reef Restaurant

I recently got to try out Coral Reef Restaurant on my last trip and the ambiance was so fun sitting with the beautiful tank all around us and seeing all the fish swim by and the food was just as great! Also, I had been wanting to eat there for as long as I can remember because that’s where they ate on an episode of Full House (my 90’s readers know what’s up!). So if you happen to be in the mood for Coral Reef Restaurant be sure to try out their new Easter Brookie Basket for desert! It is a white chocolate ganache, buttercream, and chocolate eggs (will be available starting Apr. 4).

BUT WAIT! Not on the east coast? Fear not! Head over to read the rest of Disney Parks Blog to see what’s available on the west coast, in Hong Kong, and Tokyo Disney Sea! I have to be honest, I’m a little envious of their treats!

Also, if you were wondering about the butterfly in my cover photo you can go see them after all your feasting at Epcot at the Flower and Garden festival that is going on right now at the Taste of Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival. Here are two of my favorite things from the festival: the non-alcoholic frozen Violet lemonade from the Pineapple Promenade and visiting The Goodness Garden Butterfly House and catching butterflies!

If you want to learn more about the Flower and Garden Festival be sure to click here to read all about it!

I so wish I could make it to enjoy all these absolutely amazing Easter treats! Maybe next year! Will you be making it around Walt Disney World Resort to try any of these?

XOXO,
