Add a little Disney Magic to that Carnberry Holiday Dish

Ocean Spray is flexing its sponsorship muscles with it’s culinary relationship with Disney and the result are some holiday dishes worth sharing. Cranberries have been a staple on holiday tables for more than 300 years. Of course, the Walt Disney World Resort chefs, helped Ocean Spray add some special Disney flare too!

“Cranberries are exceptional any time of year and pair well with just about everything,” said Larry Martin, vice president of global marketing at Ocean Spray. “By collaborating with Walt Disney World Resort and their talented chefs, we’re able to showcase a variety of festive dishes throughout the Disney property to show people how they can use the cranberry to add a dash of color, zing or pop to any holiday meal.”

Okay…. this is a pretty blatant ad for Ocean Spray. But on the off chance you have a few of those free packets of Craisins from the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival hanging around your home, or just like to use cranberries in your holidays meals, I wanted to share these delicious looking recipes. And if you can pull of that Grand Floridian Soufflé, I expect an invitation to dine at your house. :)

I’ve never been aboard a Disney cruise ship at Christmas, but I hear it’s a special time. Beyond the decorations and specially costumed walk-around characters, there are special meals and holiday entertainment to enjoy. Here’s a fresh video with highlights from across the Disney Cruise Line fleet revealing how the Christmas holiday is celebrated. There are also a few wonderful shots of decorations at Castaway Cay and the Cape Canaveral terminal too.
