DS Update: Sprinkles Bites The Dust

This was the Sprinkles cupcake store in Disney Springs Town Center while it was under construction in late 2015/early 2016. We wondered at the time how a cupcake store would need this much space.

But when they opened in early 2016, we wondered no more. There were hour-long lines to get in and another queue for those wanting to use the cupcake ATM.

But when we visited in 2023, the lines were gone. And now we've read that the entire Sprinkles chain is shuttering including the store and ATM at Disney Springs. The latter location faced new competition from places like Gideon's Bakehouse, Everglazed Donuts and even Summerhouse. But if the entire chain has closed then it's a nationwide financial problem, not just local. 

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Club Report: NYE @ Iron Cow

We were going to go to the "DJ's Around The World" show at EPCOT for NYE but when we saw temps were dropping into the upper 30's after 10PM, we made alternate plans. And those plans included DJ Icey (USA) and Go Go dancer Kriss Reign (USA). NYE pics from Iron Cow are posted on sister website Orlando Entertainment News HERE.
