    Planning a special birthday in WDW for our daughter in law who has never been to the Park. Planning on a day in the Magic Kingdom but the Cake Bake Shop with the “edible” pixie dust caught her eye. How would we get to the restaurant from Magic Kingdom.

    Hiya Robert,

    Thank you so much for stopping by planDisney with your question—and a big happy birthday to your daughter-in-law! What a practically perfect way to celebrate—spending her special day in Magic Kingdom Park! I’m sure she’ll have a day filled with laughter, pixie dust, and maybe even a few Mickey-shaped treats.

    Now, let’s whisk our way right into your question. The fastest way to get from Magic Kingdom to The Cake Bake Shop is by hopping on a complimentary Disney bus bound for Disney’s BoardWalk. You’ll find the bus stop just outside the park entrance—simply look for the signs directing you to the BoardWalk area resorts. Once you arrive, take a stroll down the charming BoardWalk promenade, and you’ll spot The Cake Bake Shop sparkling with sweet elegance—it’s pure dessert heaven! 

    If you’d prefer a bit extra comfort and pixie dust, you can also use a Minnie Van, powered by Lyft! These adorable red and white polka-dot vans will whisk you directly to the BoardWalk with no additional stops (and no waiting for the bus). It’s the cutest way to travel in Disney style. 

    Before you head out, be sure to pick up a complimentary Happy Birthday button for your daughter-in-law. She can wear it proudly around the park and enjoy birthday wishes from Cast Members and Guests alike—it’s amazing how much extra magic that little button brings!  And when you make your reservation at The Cake Bake Shop, let them know you’re celebrating a birthday—they may just add an extra sprinkle of sweetness to her special day.

    Robert, I hope this helps you plan a magical birthday celebration. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to visit us again. 

    See ya real soon,

    Christina
