Disney is continuing its trend of raspberry in these limited-time treats, and it is a welcome surprise here. The mousse dome is creamy without being overly rich, and the raspberry filling adds a nice tartness to balance it out.

The chocolate shortbread crust is also a nice change of pace from the usual graham cracker.

We really appreciated the slivered almonds for the horns instead of the played-out white chocolate.

Overall this is a surprisingly nice and balanced treat, with a few tricks up its menacing sleeve.
