“Who’s your friend who likes to play?”
Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff
“BING BONG, BING BONG!”
Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff
Welcome to Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff Confectionery, which is now open on Disney California Adventure’s new Pixar Pier! Riley’s imaginary best friend from Inside Out, Bing Bong, is serving treats inspired by the candy tears he cries.
Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff
It’s time for all kinds of SWEET STUFF for guests on Pixar Promenade!

Now, it should be noted that even though Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff is now open, Bing Bong’s isn’t entirely ready just yet. There’s still more to come to this new sweet stop (currently hidden behind the trunk of the as-yet-to-be-revealed Bing Bong).

But there’s plenty to see right now, too! The merchandise area starts from the outside, and greatly expands within.
Entering Bing Bong’s Sweet Stuff
And we’ll take a little tour of that later. First, we’re going to start at what is actually at the end of the store’s set-up, since it’s what we’ve all been waiting for… the new confectionery items!
Confectionery Case
Because it’s a confectionery, it’s possible you can guess several of the items you’ll find here. Classic Disney sweets in the bakery case include Caramel Apples, Cake Pops, Mickey Krispy Treats, Marshmallow Wands, and more. But, of course, many of the snacks have been dressed up to match the Pixar-themed occasion!
Inside Out Cake Pops
Bing Bong Apple
Incredibles Krispy Treat
Eve Cake Pops
Though we’ve had a look at some of these items throughout Pixar Fest, several are making their debut here at Bing Bong’s… and the one that fits in the most, of course, is the Bing Bong Candy Apple!
Bing Bong Apple
Bing Bong’s gonna run you $13.99… which is pretty steep for an apple! But you at least have to sneak a peek at the spot’s signature snack.
You’ll currently find the Pixar Ball Apple ($12.99), as well.

And — as anticipated — the Inside Out Emotions have their own Cake Pops!

Anger Cake Pop
Fear Cake Pop
The cake filling each cake pop matches the Emotion’s signature color, and the flavors vary with each Emotion, too!
Joy Cake Pop
For sure the favorite was Joy’s Lemon Cake Pop, with its pop of bright, citrus-y flavor.

Hanging high above the confectionery area is a sign showing you the signature drinks of the house… Memory Refreshers!
Jangles the Clown Presents Memory Refreshers
Jangles the Clown shows you that your frozen drink options include Rainbow Unicorn, Sunshine in a Cup, Imaginary Pal, Slow Burn, and Gloomy Blues.
Memory Refreshers Menu
The Rainbow Unicorn Memory Refresher combines Mellow Yellow, Hi-C Lime, and the following Fanta flavors: Blue Raspberry, Grape, and Cherry. The drink is layered in such a way that it keeps its separated rainbow colors… at least at first!(Maybe this is inspired by the World of Color slush — an off the menu creation that many in-the-know Disney snackers have loved on both coasts for the past year or two!)

It’s topped with lots of Rainbow Nerds candy.

The taste is as colorful and candy-licious it looks. But be warned… it is very, VERY sweeeeeeet!
The Slow Burn takes Fanta Cherry and Mellow Yellow… and adds a pump of Habanero Lime Syrup!

It’s topped with Mango Popping Pearls.

I enjoyed the flavor and therefore the drink, but honestly didn’t pick up on much of the habanero heat at all.
Other featured flavor combos in the drinks include Fanta Cherry and Minute Maid Lemonade for the Incredi-Glacier.

Fanta Blue Raspberry with Blueberry Popping Pearls make up the Gloomy Blues.

Inside Out Bagged Candy
You may recall these from our first trip to Tinseltown Trinket in Hollywood Studios and from Knick’s Knacks at Pixar Pier, but as a refresher, the Emotions from Inside Out are featured on bagged candy such as Lemon Drops, Cinnamon Candy, and Sour Rainbow Belts.
