White Chocolate Elephant Cupake at Kusafiri Coffee Shop and Bakery - Review

Disney cupcakes seem to have more draw than other cupcakes, at least they do for our family.

The cupcakes are delicious, creative, huge, and if you're on the dining plan are a great use for a snack credit.

The White Chocolate Elephant Cupcake from the Kusafiri Coffee Shop and Bakery at Animal Kingdom is a great example of why Disney cupcakes are great.

The Bakery itself is located in the Africa section of Animal Kingdom between the Tusker House Restaurant and Kilimanjaro Safaris.  It could easily be passed by without a second glance because of it's hole in the wall appearance.   Although it is a hole in the wall with a cash register out front, they do serve good cupcakes.

Food

In the past, and the first time we had it, the White Chocolate Elephant Cupcake had the appearance and taste of a German chocolate cake. Since then, we found out on our last trip, the cupcake has changed. It is now a chocolate cupcake with chocolate butter-cream frosting, topped with a small amount of green icing for grass, large chocolate shavings, and a white chocolate elephant lollipop.

It is still a tasty cupcake, but sadly it is nothing compared to the previous version on this cake.

You should still check Kusafiri out even if this cupcake doesn't interest you. They have other cupcakes, like the Zebra Cupcake and the Lion Cub Cupcake, as well as brownies and cinnamon rolls.

Note: The cupcakes may not be available until 11am.

We Used Genie+ for the First Time. What did we Think?!

Back in June my sister, Sharon, and I took a girls trip to Disney World! It was a fun trip, and for the first time since it came out, we used Genie+. Today, we're going to share our thoughts about the experience.  What is Genie+?!  Genie+ is the paid for "skip the standyby line" option that replaced Fastpass+. It debuted on October 1, 2021 on the first day of the 50th Anniversary Celebration. This is what the Walt Disney World website says about the service, " Use the Lightning Lane entrances offered through Disney Genie+ service and save time waiting in line. On average, Guests can enter 2 to 3 attractions or experiences per day using Lightning Lane entrances, if the first selection is made early in the day." There is also a second option, Individual Attraction Selection. The Disney World site says, " You may also purchase individual—or à la carte—Lightning Lane entry selections for specific attractions that aren’t offered through Disney Genie+ service. Pu

Dinner at Royal Court on the Disney Fantasy

We’ve mentioned more than a few times that each of the four Disney ships has three main dining rooms. All four ships have the fun Animator’s Palate that we talked about a couple of weeks ago, as well as a themed dining rooms on the Magic and Wonder (Rapunzel’s and Tiana’s) and Enchanted Garden on the Dream and Fantasy. We’ll talk about Enchanted Garden in our next Disney Cruise Line focused post! This week, though, we’re excited to talk about the third main dining room on the Disney Fantasy, Royal Court. Royal Court, like Royal Palace on the Dream, Triton’s on the Wonder, and Lumiere’s on the Magic is the most upscale of the three main dining rooms. Located right off the main lobby Royal Court is a grand dining room that celebrates Disney’s royal couples. Throughout the dining room there are mosaics of Disney Princess and their princes including Belle and Beast,  Jasmine and Aladdin, Tiana and Naveen, Cinderella and Prince Charming, Aurora and Phillip, Ariel and Eric, and Snow Wh
