A new coffee shop will be opening soon – Carousel Coffee! This new location will be guests’ new go-to spot for their favorite coffee beverages, tea options, and some mouthwatering pastries to indulge in. This location will feature Artisan Roasted Joffrey’s Coffee in its yummy sips.

In the coming weeks, we can expect to see the full menu, but here is a sneak peek. Carousel Coffee will be serving a Dark Cherry Mocha Frozen Blended Coffee and Whipped Cream

There will be a seasonal rotation of coffees too! You’ll soon be able to enjoy the Cinnamon Bun Frozen Blended Coffee with Whipped Cream. Yes, you heard that right – cinnamon bun!

The Nitro Cold Brew Coffee is a freshly batched, extra smooth, dark-roasted cold brew coffee infused with nitro. For those tea lovers out there, Carousel Coffee has options for you too. The Pomegranate-Green Tea Lemonade features fresh-squeezed lemon juice thoroughly blended with pomegranate green tea and a touch of agave.

The Crunchy Raspberry Danish will be a must-try. This treat features crispy sugar dough layers with hibiscus fondant and raspberry. There are also plenty of classic treats, like the Vintage Mickey & Minnie Sugar Cookie, Banana Bread, Croissant, Blueberry Muffin, Chocolate Muffin, NJ Crumb Cake, and Bagels. And what Disney location would not be complete without a Mickey Brownie?

Another addition that sweet lovers are sure to be excited about is The Cake Bake Shop at Disney’s BoardWalk. This new location recently began construction to bring the new spot to life and is slated to open in 2023.

Upon opening, this sweet spot will feature both savory and sweet items on its menu, and of course showcase the incredible cakes that Gwendolyn and her team have created, for brunch, lunch, and dinner. In addition to the regular menu, you’ll also be able to enjoy an elegant afternoon tea service! And the offerings don’t stop there. Not only will there be table-service offerings, but also a quick-service bakery for you to pick up these delicious delights on-the-go.

There aren’t just cakes here. The restaurant and bakery will serve cookies, French macarons, brownies, dessert bars, pies, and cheesecakes in addition to the handmade cakes. These treats aren’t just beautiful, but delicious too. The whimsical atmosphere of The Cake Bake Shop and its goodies are sure to be a charming addition to the BoardWalk.

I think it’s interesting The Cake Bake Shop will serve afternoon tea. Do you think that means it will no longer be an option at Disney’s Grand Floridian? Let us know what you think about this and the coffee shop in the comments below and on Facebook.
