We headed into Disney’s Animal Kingdom to try the new Pride Mousse Dome available at the onsite Starbucks location, Creature Comforts, on Discovery Island near the main entrance to Africa. Let’s take a look at this colorful new treat.
Pride Mousse Dome – $5.99
Lemon Chiffon Cake, Raspberry-Lemonade Mousse, White Chocolate Glaze, and White Chocolate Crispy Pearls Striped with the Transgender Flag Colors
The top is coated with white chocolate in pastel pink and blue stripes.
White chocolate Mickey Mouse ears also adorn the dessert dome.
Crispy pearls line the perimeter in pink, blue, and white.
We felt this performed like a typical Disney dessert, and wasn’t a standout option.
The mousse inside tasted nothing like raspberry-lemonade, though it was a bit sour. It reminded us more of a lemon-flavored cream cheese.
The lemon chiffon cake tasted to us like a plain cake, without much flavor to it.
Since this has white chocolate set over the top, it will melt very quickly under the Florida sun. This treat is a large portion of food for the price, and we felt it was definitely one to share.
While visually pleasing, we wouldn’t go out of our way to get this snack again.
