Hello, CwC family, & happy 2026!

This year, we will be having some BIG changes coming to our company: new Family Style Menu with more local produce & seafood fresh off the fishing boats (don't worry, we're keeping a bunch of the faves 😉), more retail products, a full bakery/bread menu, a cookbook for purchase coming soon, & more! We want you all to enjoy our products whether on vacation or at home, & experience some darn good eats with loved ones.

So stay tuned, because CwC is launching into the new year faster, bigger, & brighter than a NASA launch! ❤️

Hello, everyone! Celia here!

Goodness, it's been a while since I've posted! This holiday season has been quite a ride, & CwC has been very busy. Right after Halloween, we jumped head first into catering cast & crew for Jollywood Nights at the Studios, rehearsals for Festival of the Holidays, & now we've had the INCREDIBLE honor of catering for all guest narrators for Epcot's Candlelight Processional. And next month, we'll be catering the Disney on Broadway series during Festival of the Arts. To say blessings have shined down would be an understatement, & I'm still having to pinch myself. After a roller coaster of a year & a big personal life door closing, every window sure opened, & I'm beyond grateful.

I hope everyone has had an incredible holiday season, & I wish everyone the merriest Christmas full of love, peace, & joy, & we will see you in the new year. ❤️🎄❤️

Good morning, CwC family! Celia here!

Due to some last minute orders with our contracted partners that we can't say no to, this coming week's meal service will be moved to the following week, & the menu will be posted on Thursday.

As a result, our meal service will be every other week for the foreseeable future. We have some very big things coming up with the holiday season quickly approaching here in Orlando, & need to make sure we're present for those, but still want to continue with this offering. So, this will be our best & most convenient compromise to not only keep everyone happy & fed, but to also avoid burnout.

I'm so grateful to you all for the continued business, & for your understanding as I work hard to expand my company into this next new & exciting chapter.

07/24/2025

Good morning!

Next week's meal service will be posted TOMORROW afternoon. We look forward to sharing more delicious bites with you, & until then, have a wonderful Thursday!
