If you’ve ever been to the International Festival of the Arts at EPCOT, you won’t be surprised that Disney goes to great lengths to bring an explosion of color to the event.  From the paint-by-numbers murals that guests can participate in, to sidewalk chalk artists, to recreations of the art of the Great Masters, as well as featured artists at work, the Festival of the Arts is an imaginative display of colors, textures and sounds.

At this year’s Festival, kicking off a little over a week from now, guests can explore a rainbow of tastes during the “Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine.”  (Now you’ll have an excuse to eat a variety of different colored foods, as your doctor probably has recommended!)  

 

The Taste of Epcot International Festival of the Arts begins January 8, and runs through February 22, 2021. It offers an array of creative food booths, working artists with artwork to purchase and take home, fun photo ops, and visual and musical entertainment. 

 

A journey not unlike the Cookie Stroll at the Festival of the Holidays, the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine invites aspiring foodies/artists to “purchase 5 vibrant food items to receive a technicolor treat during this delectable experience,” according to Disney. Using Festival Passports as a guide, guests purchase “specially notated menu items” and collect a stamp for each of the 5 multi-hued dishes. Once they’ve earned all 5 stamps, participants can enjoy “The Artist Palette Cookie” as a reward at the Decadent Delights booth.

 

The kaleidoscope of offerings along the Wonderful Walk of Colorful Cuisine include:

 

Red: Remy's Ratatouille with Eggplant, Zucchini, Yellow Squash, Tomatoes, and Red Pepper Piperade (located at Festival Favorites)

Blue: Blue Corn Pupusa stuffed with Cheese and topped with Shredded Pork, Guajillo and Árbol Chile Sauce, Cabbage Slaw, and Aji Amarillo Crema (located at Vibrante & Vívido Food Studio)

 

Green: Pistachio Cake with Cherry Mousse and Morello Cherries (located at The Painter's Palate)

 

Pink: Vanilla, Rose Water, and Pistachio Panna Cotta (located at Masterpiece Kitchen)

 

Orange: Mouskoutchou: Orange Cake with Cinnamon-Orange Chocolate Mousse (located at Mosaic Canteen)

 

Guests do not have to complete the entire 5 item series in a single visit. Completed stamped Passports can be brought back to the Decadent Delights booth at EPCOT at any time during the Festival of the Arts to earn the free reward. (Park tickets are required for entry to the Festival.)
