What’s New in Hollywood Studios — Lots of Verrines, New Pixar Merch, and $1 Cheese Sauce!
We’re walking the metaphorical red carpet over in Hollywood Studios today!
Cast Member Water Art
The holidays are officially over which means everything is back to business as normal in Hollywood Studios. We spotted a bunch of new and returning treats to replace the Christmas desserts and a good amount of other changes too! Check out all of the updates we saw in food, construction, and merchandise!
Hollywood Studios Food Updates
Multiple Locations
First off, most of the Christmas snacks are no longer available. But, we did spot one exception! You can still get the Holiday Festive Popcorn at The Market.

Sunset Boulevard
Over at Rosie’s All American Cafe, we saw that they were now selling a new version of a Chocolate Verrine, so you know we had to try it. Turns out it looks and tastes a whole lot like the Hot Chocolate Verrine that was available for the holidays, so we’re thinking it may be the same one without the festive decoration.

There’s another familiar-looking verrine over at Catalina Eddie’s. This one is called the Strawberry Shortcake Verrine. Honestly, it tastes a lot like the Strawberry Shortcake dessert that we’ve had here before, but the presentation is a little different.

Over at KRNR Rock Station, we’ve had to say goodbye to one of our favorite Mac and Cheese varieties, the Buffalo Mac and Cheese.

BUT the yummy Tres Leches Verrine is back at Fairfax Fare, so at least that helps make up for it.

Wow! That was a lot of food updates. There are some other changes too though! We spotted these handy dandy Rise of the Resistance Info Sheets, for instance.

Now, we only saw these available at the Map and Times Guide kiosk in front of Crossroads, so if you want one of the sheets when you’re in the park, that’s the best place to look!

And Toy Story Land still has those playful Christmas Decorations up! In fact, there were some decorations lingering all over the park too.
