Quick tip of the day
Emailed from Lindsey A.:
“I have a quick tip for people looking to add extra magic to a dining reservation in Disney Springs.
We are celebrating my dad’s birthday on our upcoming trip, and we wanted to get a special cake.
The cast member I spoke to regarding dining reservations wasn’t sure if Amorette’s Patisserie delivers, and the Disney website says that you can pre-order and pick up a cake from Amorette’s to enjoy at your resort, but it doesn’t mention any delivery options.
I called Amorette’s directly and got the answer!
They will deliver the large dome character cakes or their signature red velvet cake to Disney Springs restaurants.
Order 72 hours ahead of time to ensure delivery and pre-payment is required.
While we could have picked up the cake ourselves and brought it to dinner, it’ll be nice to keep the cake a surprise for my dad and have it waiting for us at The Boathouse!”
Check out the cake on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/p/BqTq4Lxgfxm/?
