New Permits Filed for Kitchen Installation at The Cake Bake Shop

Hey Disney Vacationers and foodies, get ready to experience a sweet sensation like no other! Disney’s BoardWalk is about to getting to welcoming the much-anticipated opening of The Cake Bake Shop. A new permit has been filed to kick off the installation of the restaurant’s kitchen, marking a significant step forward in this exciting project. Let’s dive into the details of this delectable development and what you can expect when The Cake Bake Shop finally opens its doors.

A Permit to Make Magic: Kitchen Installation in Progress

The buzz around The Cake Bake Shop has been building ever since it was first announced back in 2022. Originally planned for a 2023 debut, the opening faced some delays as the transformation of the former ESPN Club space into the new sweet dining destination took its time. But good things come to those who wait, and the latest news is sure to delight eager patrons.

The new permit is all about the kitchen, the heart, and soul of any great restaurant. The task has been assigned to Johnson Lancaster and Associates, a company renowned for its expertise in commercial kitchen design, construction, and renovation. This partnership ensures that The Cake Bake Shop’s kitchen will be state-of-the-art, perfectly equipped to bring the vision of exquisite dining and delectable desserts to life.

The Cake Bake Shop: Where Dreams Come True

What makes The Cake Bake Shop stand out in the sea of dining options at Disney’s BoardWalk? It’s all about the experience. Disney promises that The Cake Bake Shop will offer “exquisite dining, delicious Afternoon Tea, delectable desserts, marvelous champagne, and fanciful cocktails for an extraordinary and whimsical experience.” Imagine stepping into a space that feels like a cross between a fairy tale and a French patisserie—glamorous, elegant, and filled with the sweet scent of freshly baked cakes and pastries.

Location, Location, Location

Located at Disney’s BoardWalk, The Cake Bake Shop will take over the space formerly occupied by the ESPN Club. Its prime location places it right next to other recently updated spots like the Ice Cream Shop and Boardwalk Deli.

What’s on the Menu?

While the full menu for The Cake Bake Shop hasn’t been released yet, we can expect a variety of culinary delights that live up to the shop’s whimsical theme. Here’s a sneak peek at what might be on offer, based on the brand’s reputation:

• Signature Cakes: Think multi-layered masterpieces covered in rich buttercream, adorned with edible flowers, and sprinkled with a touch of magic. Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, or just treating yourself!
• Afternoon Tea: A classic English tradition, served Disney-style. Imagine a selection of delicate finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and jam, and an assortment of mini pastries and cakes, all accompanied by a steaming pot of your favorite tea.
• Delectable Desserts: From rich chocolate mousse to light and airy macarons, The Cake Bake Shop is likely to offer a dessert menu that will satisfy every sweet tooth. And don’t forget the seasonal specials that will surely make each visit unique!
• Marvelous Champagne and Fanciful Cocktails: What’s a celebration without a bit of bubbly? The Cake Bake Shop will probably feature a curated list of champagnes and creative cocktails, each as Instagram-worthy as the next.

Final Thoughts

The filing of the new permit for The Cake Bake Shop at Disney’s BoardWalk is more than just a technical update—it’s a key step towards the restaurant’s completion. Keep an eye out for more updates as we inch closer to the grand opening. Until then, keep dreaming of cakes, champagne, and the kind of magical dining experience that only Disney can deliver.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who.

We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions.  On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over.  He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip.  Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nate was absolutely the best planner I have ever had.  Will most definitely be using him again.   He took care of everything and kept me on track.  Was so very helpful in making all the dining reservations and everything.   Can't thank him enough.   He made our trip completely stress free!

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
