ALICES WONDERLAND BAKERY – Key Art. (Disney)

Alice’s Wonderland Bakery will finally arrive on February 9th on Disney Channel, Disney Junior and Disney+ and we are excited as we have been following all of the announcements. Baking is really “in” now and it looks like we are finally going to get an animated series to capitalize on that, even if we don’t have enchanted ingredients. Not only do we get Alice but we also get Princess Rosa, Hattie, Fergie, Cookie, Dinah, as well as Cheshire Cat.

There is already a huge list of guest stars which you can read about below, but we are looking forward to seeing what sort of recipes and adventures Alice will get into. What we find most interesting is the fact that they are already talking about dolls, role-play products, and more for Alice’s Wonderland Bakery. Can we get something along the lines of the Strawberry Shortcake dolls for this show?

Disney Junior’s “Alice’s Wonderland Bakery,” a fantastical animated series for preschoolers and their families inspired by the world of “Alice in Wonderland,” premieres FEB. 9, 2022, with a simulcast on Disney Channel and Disney Junior (10:30 a.m. EST/PST). An initial batch of episodes will also premiere the same day on on-demand platforms and streaming on Disney+. A vibrant new take on the classic 1951 film, the series centers on Alice, the great-granddaughter of the original heroine and a budding young baker at the enchanted Wonderland Bakery, where her magical treats help bring a new generation of friends and families together.

Featuring reimagined versions of familiar iconic characters and introducing memorable new ones, the series stars newcomer Libby Rue as the voice of Alice and a slew of celebrity guest stars. A video featurette highlighting the cast was released today and is available here.

Each episode of “Alice’s Wonderland Bakery,” comprised of two 11-minute stories, centers on Alice’s magical recipe adventures with her best pals, who join her in the bakery to whip up whimsical cakes and treats for friends and neighbors with enchanted kitchen tools and ingredients to help them. The series celebrates the culture and creativity of food, highlights self-expression, and imparts age-appropriate social and emotional lessons about friendship, collaboration, and the importance of community.

In addition to Rue, the lead voice cast includes Abigail Estrella (“How the Grinch Stole Christmas!”) as Princess Rosa, the Princess of Hearts and Alice’s most artistic friend; CJ Uy (“The Ball Method”) as Hattie, a “mad-hatter” boy and Alice’s silliest friend; Jack Stanton (“Outmatched”) as Fergie the White Rabbit, Alice’s best friend and biggest fan; Secunda Wood (“Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous”) as Cookie, the magical cookbook that once belonged to Alice’s great grandmother; and Audrey Wasilewski (“Mad Men”) as Dinah, Alice’s pet cat who is always at her side. Max Mittelman (“Spider-Man”) recurs as Cheshire Cat, Alice’s mysterious and playful friend and one of the most iconic Wonderland characters.

Notable recurring and series guest stars include Craig Ferguson (“The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson”) as Doorknob; Eden Espinosa (Disney’s “Rapunzel’s Tangled Adventure”) as Rosa’s mother, The Queen of Hearts; GRAMMY® Award winner Jon Secada (“Just Another Day”) as Rosa’s grandfather, The King of Hearts; Vanessa Bayer and Bobby Moynihan (“Saturday Night Live”) as twins Tweedle Do and Tweedle Don’t; Donald Faison (“Scrubs”) as Harry the March Hare; Rich Sommer (“Mad Men”) as Captain Dodo; Yvette Nicole Brown (Disney’s “The Chicken Squad”) as Mama Rabbit; Ana Gasteyer (“Saturday Night Live”) as Kiki; Lamorne Morris (“New Girl”) as Dandy; Matthew Moy (“2 Broke Girls”) as David of Spades; and Lesley Nicol (“Downton Abby”) as Iris. The series also features Broadway stars Ali Stroker (“Oklahoma!”) as Daisy, Melissa van der Schyff (“Bonnie and Clyde”) as Jojo, James Monroe Iglehart (“Aladdin”) as Oliver, Mandy Gonzalez (“Hamilton”) as Mother Rose, Christopher Fitzgerald (“Waitress”) as Thistle, and George Salazar (“Be More Chill”) as Dad Hatter.

Disney Consumer Products, Games and Publishing will debut a product line by Just Play inspired by the series featuring dolls, role-play products, figures, and more in Fall 2022. A digital soundtrack featuring songs from the series will be released by Walt Disney Records in February.
