REVIEW: Our Hopes Were DASHED BY This New Disney World Snack

You know us…we love Disney World snacks, and we especially love it when Disney World drops brand new snacks.

New snack alert!

When we learn about new food in Disney World, we’re running to check it out because that’s our thing. So when we spotted a new dessert at ABC Commissary in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we made a beeline over to the quick service location to check it out. And now, well, we have some thoughts to share with you about this new treat.

The Raspberry Pistachio Cheesecake has arrived, and at first, it seems to have a lot of potential. For $5.79, you get a Raspberry Cheesecake with White Chocolate Ganache, Pistachio Whipped Cream, Raspberry Jam, and Pistachios. We’ll start with the good. First, this is a very photogenic snack, and the cheesecake layer is very creamy with plenty of raspberry flavor, although we would have liked more of that raspberry jam in the center — you only get a little dollop.

Now for the bad. The pistachio flavor did NOT do it for us. It had an artificial flavor that we just couldn’t get past. We ended up scraping it off the cheesecake to enjoy the cheesecake on its own (and it was better without the pistachio whipped cream). The crust adds more texture than flavor, so we think this would have worked if it had just been the raspberry cheesecake without the pistachio.

The raspberry part was good

Overall, we don’t think we’d get this treat again, and if you’re looking for something with a true pistachio flavor, this isn’t it. We know pistachio is a trendy flavor right now, but in this instance, it doesn’t work. So if you’re looking for a good snack in Disney World, skip this and maybe try the Wookiee Cookie from Backlot Express or the Carrot Cake Whoopie Pie at Trolley Car Cafe.
