During the grand reveal of the Disney Treasure last year, we were given a sweet surprise: the introduction of Jumbeaux’s Sweets, slated to open onboard later this year. Inspired by the whimsical world of Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Academy Award®-winning film *Zootopia*, this delightful dessert destination promises to transport guests straight into the vibrant and colorful universe of Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde.
From the bubblegum pink-striped wallpaper to the vintage-style light fixtures, every element inside Jumbeaux’s Sweets has been meticulously chosen by Disney Imagineers to encapsulate the playful essence of *Zootopia*. The pièce de résistance? An eye-catching bronze statue of the film’s beloved duo, Officer Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. This striking piece was meticulously designed in collaboration with Walt Disney Animation Studios, seamlessly blending Imagineering magic with cinematic charm.
Seeing the process unfold is a testament to the detailed craftsmanship Disney is known for. Starting from sketched designs, followed by the creation of a one-of-a-kind digital model, the statue was then cast in bronze and transported to Florida where it received its final touches of paint. In the images provided, artist Jay Abruzzese is seen adding the finishing touches, bringing the characters to life in the most tangible way possible.
This new venue is a perfect example of how Disney continues to blur the lines between their animated gems and real-world experiences, creating unforgettable memories for guests of all ages. So next time you’re aboard the Disney Treasure, don’t forget to stop by Jumbeaux’s Sweets to get a taste of this enchanting addition.
