We are back with a NEW treat in Disney World! To celebrate Mufasa: The Lion King debuting in theaters on December 20th, Disney World released FIVE exclusive treats. 

Of course, you know we have to give them a try, so we are heading over to Amorette’s Patisserie to try one of the new desserts.

Amorette’s Patisserie is located in the Town Center area of Disney Springs. It is a French-style bakery that serves up a variety of pastries, cakes, and other treats. We are here to grab the Mufasa Cake Bar! This bar contains a cinnamon-vanilla mouse and vanilla chiffon with caramel chocolate-coated feuilletine crunch dipped in dark chocolate. You can get it for $8.25.

Upon first impression, we were taken aback by the Mufasa cut-out on the front. For some reason, it seems a bit out of place against the decorations behind it. We felt like we were being stared down by a cake bar, and it was just a bit weird. He looks just as confused as we are! Did we just have a moment with a fake lion? Don’t judge…

Once we made it past the lion’s face staring into our soul, it was time to see how this treat tasted. This bar is PACKED with cinnamon flavor. You will have to really enjoy cinnamon to enjoy this cake bar. It isn’t a hint of cinnamon, but rather, it is a gingerbread-esque amount of cinnamon. 

Beyond the cinnamon flavor, you will also taste a lot of chocolate. The cake bar has a very doughy consistency. The cake bar doesn’t have layers; the ingredients are combined together in one cake bar center. 

Overall, we really enjoyed the cake bar and it was one of the better cake bars we have tried. BUT, you will need to like cinnamon if you are going to grab this cake bar; you have been warned! We tasted cinnamon in our mouths for quite a while afterward. We will also be heading to Animal Kingdom to try some of the other new Mufasa treats, so check back for those reviews!

We have a passion for Disney food, and we have eaten EVERYWHERE in Disney World. However, we aren’t stopping there. We are constantly revisiting locations and trying new food, so stay tuned to DFB for even more Disney food reviews!
