Some recipes are meant to be followed. This one is meant to be finished.
No matter how carefully he follows the recipe, his grandfather’s famous coconut orange soufflé never tastes the way he remembers it. Then his mother hands him something his grandfather left behind: the scattered pages of an old journal, a locked envelope and perhaps the answer to what he’s been missing all along.
Whisk’d sends you throughout Downtown Disney solving escape room-style clues hidden within the pages of a chef’s journal. Each solution reveals another piece of his grandfather’s story and brings you closer to unlocking the secret behind the recipe he could never recreate. Follow the clues, open the envelope and discover that sometimes the most important part of a recipe isn’t what someone else wrote down—it’s what you bring to it.
Estimated Completion Time:
90 Minutes

Entry into the Downtown Disney District (no park admission required)

As you chase down your grandfather’s most famous recipe, he left you clues to uncover the secret to his success… and yours. But the question is: can you measure up?

The entire game pack of clues, tools, and instructions exists within the black string-enclosure envelope, including the pencil to fill out the clues. Everything you need to play, including the treasure, is in the envelope, just bring the whole envelope and it’s contents into Downtown Disney.
This quest is not a race, you solve the clues in your own time and at your own pace. But be prepared: the game footprint can require alot of walking or moving throughout the Downtown Disney district area.
You may need to go through security multiple times if you believe clues are leading you to adjacent areas connected to Downtown Disney. The game footprint for this game is Downtown Disney, the plaza between the parks, and the two adjacent hotels. Disneyland and Disney California Adventure parks are NOT part of this game’s footprint.
And just because we have received the question: you will not be cooking anything as part of this game. But if you’d like to snack at the bevy of delicious options in Downtown Disney while you play, we won’t stop you.
