Looks like she is holding a smoothie or kind of with whipped cream on this pin's.
Anyway, I don't know why it's there as the original drawing has no drink in her hand, neither in the graphic style guide for marketing to my knowledge.
As I said, I can't talk about the movie because I am under confidential agreement, so I can't answer about what's inside the movie or not. So sorry because I would love to talk and share my thoughts about the movie.
I liked it overall and think it is a decent sequel though.

That's OK. Thanks for replying, anyway. I was asking 'cause this might be the secret project Alan Menken was working on. It seems too good to be true, but here's hoping!
After the end of a long afternoon “creative session”, Alan Menken’s enthusiasm and energy are unwavering. A musical force of nature in stage and screen for decades, his excitement as he talks about “working on an opening for a new musical that I’m writing with my ‘Newsies’ team and Harvey Fierstein and Jack Feldman” and “a new song I’m doing for a Disney animated” is beyond palpable while serving as a great tease for a Menken admirer like myself.

I hope Menken's talents are not being wasted in this film. He deserves something better.

Def. sounds like it!! It will be the cherry on top if Alan is writer of the song! Like the movie or not and no matter if the song is random since the first one wasn’t a musical, a good old-fashioned Disney song by Alan is always welcomed.
And new cast members, including Miranda Sings. Is this the largest Disney cast in a movie?

They're including YouTubers too? Ugh. Way to cheapen and date the movie even more.
I was expecting this and worried about this too. This is much more Dreamworks than Disney. I do understand Miranda Sings though since she was one of the first famous YouTubers. Plus, I love Colleen/Miranda's personal blog, so I'm thrilled for Colleen. At least, it's not Fred.
But if they do add YouTubers: I'm hoping Brian Hull and Swoozie get in because of their connections to Disney. I'd be shocked if Hull doesn't get in.

Thanks for the info. It's a shame he's not back at Disney, but I'm really looking forward to Glen's directorial movie debut, so I'm glad Jin Kim is working on it too.

It would be great if he was working on a WDAS film again! Even if it's a song for the Princesses. I hope it's Vanellope who sings it, though, and not them.

This is pretty common in toys. A character that's considered not as popular as others will be included in multipacks with main characters so they can get them made. The more popular characters can be sold on their own without risk of them collecting dust on the store shelves.
Ouch. Sounds like Disney may have dissed Swoozie, the creator of Confessions of a Disney Employee series. I have no idea why would Disney not take him since he was the original Disney blogger. And Brian Hull in that matter, unless he has a cameo.

would u believe I told my agent to reach out and see if there was interest in having influencers in that movie almost 2 years ago

Maybe it's because he hasn't always painted the company in a positive light or maybe it's because he revealed his experiences as a Disney employee in a public forum. Disney frowns upon that.
So, I'm getting the book tomorrow, so I will look up certain details. But, I know this; Weirdly enough, Vanellope is NOT President. She's Princess.....they just dropped the president thing altogether Not a big deal, but....weird they are affecting the continuity of the movies.
I bet Disney completely forget about that particular detail, or worse, they remembered but weren't bothered enough to address it since it would break the princess synergy they have going on.
