Black Forest Affogato – Vivoli il Gelato
If you love discovering new treats around Disney Springs, Vivoli il Gelato has a new creation that feels both indulgent and perfectly balanced. The Black Forest Affogato puts a rich twist on the classic, swapping espresso for luxurious hot chocolate poured over Amarena black cherry gelato. The result is a deep chocolate flavor layered with bright cherry notes and a dessert that is just as beautiful as it is delicious. This is one of those slow down and savor it moments that feels especially fitting for an afternoon break.
Tiramisu – The Polite Pig
Over at The Polite Pig, there is a new dessert that feels like a classic done exactly right. The new tiramisu layers espresso-soaked ladyfingers with whipped mascarpone cream, chopped dark chocolate, and a cocoa-dusted finish that is rich, smooth, and incredibly satisfying. It is non alcoholic and family-friendly, making it an easy choice for everyone at the table. If you are wrapping up a barbecue feast, this is the perfect sweet ending.
King Cake Cannoli – Vivoli il Gelato (Returning)
Also returning to Vivoli il Gelato for 2026 is a fan favorite with festive flair. The King Cake Cannoli is coming back just in time to start dreaming about Mardi Gras. A crispy cannoli shell is filled with cinnamon-kissed ricotta and finished with colorful accents that make it feel like a celebration in dessert form. With Fat Tuesday approaching, this limited-time treat is a must for anyone who loves seasonal flavors with a little extra fun.
Vietnam Menu – Morimoto Asia
January also brings new global flavors to Morimoto Asia with the Passport to Morimoto Asia program, highlighting Vietnam this month. The A5 Wagyu Pho features sliced A5 beef and an A5 meatball in a deeply comforting bowl that feels both elevated and soulful. On the cocktail side, the Jackfruit Mojito blends rum, jackfruit, mango liqueur, lime juice, and mint for a bright and refreshing sip that pairs beautifully with the seasonal menu. Don’t forget to get your Passport stamped!

The Mariners Margarita, Smoking Medusa Manhattan, and Wicked Flamingo are all making a splash, each served in a collectible glass you can take home.
