To snag the cutest child in the galaxy, Build-A-Bear has a virtual system in place! Read on if you need this plush for your intergalactic collection!

If you’re an avid Disney+ watcher, you’ve probably heard of The Mandalorian and the intergalactic obsession fans have with “The Child”. There have been several plushies of this adorable creature released since the success of the show’s first season, including this one from Disney Springs.

If you’ve been keeping track, this guy has been re-stocked at LEAST four times…the hype is real. If you’re ready to secure the asset, get your computer ready!

Beginning at 11:30AM CST, you will be able to enter a pre-waiting room. Then, at 12:00PM CST, you will be assigned a random place in line to hopefully secure your very own Baby Yoda.

While joining the virtual waiting room does not guarantee you a plush of the Child, it is currently the only way to obtain this item from Build-A-Bear.

If that seems like too much work, never fear! There are plenty of items currently in stock and available online.

Will you be trying to secure the asset tomorrow? Or is watching The Mandalorian on Disney+ enough for you? Let us know in a comment below!

NEWS: Disney Releases a Statement On the Reopening of Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas – Jambo House

Post author By disneyfoodblog.com
Post date June 17, 2020

The many questions we have about Disney World’s reopening are starting to get some answers!

Animal Kingdom Lodge

We’re just a few days out from the reopening of several Disney Vacation Club resort hotels in Disney World. Recently, we noticed that DVC members COULD book at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas – Jambo House, despite it not being listed as one of the resorts opening on June 22nd. Now, we have some new information.

Disney added a new statement to the Jambo House page on the Disney Vacation Club site that explains the situation. Jambo House will NOT be opening in the initial stage on June 22nd. Instead, those with existing reservations will have their bookings transferred to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Villas – Kidani Village. As capacities grow, Jambo House will eventually reopen to accommodate.

Jambo House Statement

The statement also notes that when Jambo House does reopen, some amenities and restaurants may remain closed until the full reopening of Animal Kingdom Lodge. Dining and merchandise locations will be open at Kidani Village, though.

We’ll be keeping a close eye on all the newest information about the resort hotels and we’ll be reporting LIVE from reopening day on June 22nd. Stay tuned to DFB for all of the latest updates!

Gideon’s Bakehouse to Open New Location at Disney Springs

One of our favorite places to find some sweet treats in Orlando is Gideon’s Bakehouse, which is why we so excited to share this small, award-winning bakery is opening a new location in The Landing at Disney Springs!

Anticipating to open later this year, Gideon’s is best known for small-batch, handmade, almost half-pound cookies and cakes. Not only does their size make these cookies so special, Gideon’s brings its own spin to cookie flavors like Peanut Butter Crisp, Cookies & Cream and my absolute favorite, Pistachio Toffee Dark Chocolate.

“This opportunity is truly a dream come true and will allow us to flex all of our creative muscle in both desserts and décor. We’re passionate, inspired, and ready,” said Steve Lewis, owner and creator of Gideon’s Bakehouse.

We are pleased to share that Gideon’s Bakehouse, a small award-winning bakery in Orlando, is coming to The Landing at @disneysprings and bringing their famous small-batch cookies that weigh in at almost a HALF POUND each! Yum! Find out more on the blog (link in bio).

A post shared by Disney Parks Blog (@disneyparksblog) on Jun 17, 2020 at 6:07am PDT

Gideon’s plans to bring an expanded menu of cookie and cake slices to Disney Springs, plus add its own line of unique iced coffees, like the Original Peanut Butter Iced Coffee. Of course, guests can expect to find their favorite cookie flavors along with new and limited editions offered during special daily releases. The ever-popular Coffee Cake Cookie (previously only available one month a year) will be on sale every morning, with a Hot Cookie Hour each evening for those looking to cure a sweet tooth after dinner.

“We’re also excited to bring more cake flavors to our new location, offering never-before-seen creations like our special line of Double Frosted Cakes.” Steve said. “There are more than a few secrets we have up our sleeves that you’ll just have to wait to see. It’s not Gideon’s if it isn’t a little dark and mysterious.” We aim to even make the wait in line entertaining by immersing everyone in a transformative environment that will share our story as guests progress toward the counter.”

Guests can also look forward to collectible art becoming a part of the product packaging at the new bakery, which will be located in The Landing across from Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar. The new Gideon’s location is being created with health-and-safety considerations in mind and its operation will model similar guidelines in use elsewhere in Disney Springs.

Be sure to follow Gideon’s Bakehouse on Instagram at @gideonsbakehouse for drool-worthy desserts!

In case you missed the news The Polite Pig released an all-new Bourbon Chocolate Chip Cookie yesterday that is to die for!

Gideon’s Bakehouse, which makes some of our favorite cookies IN.THE.WORLD. will be opening a shop in Disney Springs in 2020!!

Gideon’s Cookies — Chocolate Chip

Yesterday, we shared that The Polite Pig would no longer be serving Gideon’s coolies! And today, Gideon’s Bakehouse has released that they are opening a brand new spot in Disney Springs this year.

The location is set to open at The Landing across from Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar in Disney Springs later this year. This new Gideon’s spot will feature an expanded menu of Gideon’s cookie and cake slices along with their own line of unique coffees like the Original Peanut Butter Iced Coffee, which they have created to pair perfectly with their desserts.

According to Gideon’s Bakehouse, we can expect to see ALL of our fav cookie flavors along with limited-edition cookies, which will be available during timed daily releases. AND get this, we will be able to snag the Coffee Cake Cookie (previously only available one month a year) EVERY. MORNING. at Gideon’s in Disney Springs.

On top of all of that sweet news, Gideon’s is also introducing a Hot Cookie Hour each evening. “We’re also excited to bring more cake flavors to our new location, offering never-before-seen creations like our special line of Double Frosted Cakes,” said owner and creator Steve Lewis. “There are more than a few secrets we have up our sleeves, but you’ll have to wait and see. It’s not Gideon’s if it isn’t a little dark and mysterious.”

While Gideon’s has another location in Orlando that takes inspiration from artists like Edward Gorey and a “similarly eerie fan-favorite attraction” at Magic Kingdom, this new location will build on that experience. We can expect to see a whimsical Victorian design in the new shop along with collectible art, which will become part of the product packaging!

We aim to make the wait in line entertaining by immersing everyone in a transformative environment that will share our story as they progress towards the counter. Experience is everything to us, so memorable sweets and whimsical atmosphere exist hand in hand. This opportunity is truly a dream come true and will allow us to flex all of our creative muscles in both desserts and decor. We’re passionate, inspired, and ready,” said Lewis.

Gideon’s also shared that “The new Gideon’s location is being created with health-and-safety considerations in mind and its operation will model similar guidelines in use elsewhere in Disney Springs.”
