Main Street Bakery on the Move and Annual Pass Changes

 

The latest word is that the Blue Ribbon Bakery will soon be relocating to the Plaza Pavilion.  The popularity of the bakery can be seen on any given night with lines that often wrap outside the door.  The move will also allow the Carnation Cafe to expand back indoors as it once did.

This is also the reason why new annual passes will no longer carry the picture of the card owner on the card.  The entrance gate will still flash your picture on a screen for the cast member scanning the passes.  Your picture will now be taken at the ticket booth or else a prior photo will just be placed onto renewed passes, such as what is done when renewing by mail.  The downside is that you can expect to be asked to show ID whenever using your pass for discounts.

Pumpkin Fudge returns for the Fall/Winter season

Pumpkin Fudge is back at Disneyland. You kind find it at the Market House and Candy Palace on Main Street and also at Pooh's Corner in Critter Country. Now I haven't checked yet, but I can almost guarantee it can also be found at Marceline's Confectionery in Downtown Disney. This stuff is delish! Try to eat just one piece.

Disney Gallery Reopens at Disneyland on Main Street

Here is a picture from Disneyland.com of the newly reopened Disney Gallery at the former Bank of Main Street. It reopens today at Disneyland.


Bank of America was one of the original park sponsors and had one of the only seven day banks open in America, right at Disneyland. In the early 90s, the sponsorship ended and the space became an annual passport processing center. After the closure of the Disney Gallery above the Pirates of the Caribbean for conversion to the Dream Suite, the gallery needed a new location. It is very fittingly now found on Main Street. The Walt Disney Story portion next door has also reopened and connects to the Gallery.
