Celebrate the holidays with the seasonal Gingerbread Cheesecake Pop, Festive Chocolate Twist, and Reindeer Sundae from Disney’s Animal Kingdom. These are all available from November 6, 2026 through January 3, 2027.
New Holiday Food at Animal Kingdom
Gingerbread Cheesecake Pop – $6.29
Gingerbread Cheesecake Mousse, Spiced Graham Cracker, and Milk Chocolate
The mousse is incredibly light — not the dense and heavy cheesecake texture you might expect. It’s served cold but will defrost as you eat. The milk chocolate shell snaps with a crunch when you bite it. The graham cracker brings the spice.
It’s a perfect portion for one and we wouldn’t want to share anyway. This is a delicious dessert or on-the-go snack.

The Gingerbread Cheesecake Pop is available at Flame Tree Barbecue.
Festive Chocolate Twist – $6.49
Chocolate twist with red and white chocolate stripes
The stripes give this classic chocolate treat a festive look without messing up what makes this snack so great in the first place. The pastry is light and packed with dark chocolate chips.
The chocolate can be a bit gooey in the sun, so we recommend keeping it wrapped in the wax paper it’s served in as you eat. It doesn’t come warmed up, so just give it a couple minutes in the Florida sun and you’ve got yourself a warmed up croissant.

The Festive Chocolate Twist is available from Isle of Java and Kusafiri Coffee Shop & Bakery.
Reindeer Sundae – $8.49
Dulce de leche ice cream, espresso caramel, coffee-coconut streusel, coconut cake and chocolate antlers
This sundae is a cute treat for ice cream and coffee lovers. The Dulce de Leche ice cream is thick, and coffee-coconut streusel provides a crunchy texture. The chocolate antlers and chocolate candy are a cute touch but do melt fast in the sun.
Overall, this sundae reminds us of a Samoa cookie—just add coffee!
