When the Florida heat starts to bear down at Walt Disney World, the Mango Coconut Mickey Bark at Disney’s Animal Kingdom offers a sweet and refreshing escape. This tropical-inspired treat can be found at Zuri’s Sweets Shop, a cozy Africa-themed candy and confectionery shop located across from Harambe Market in the heart of the park’s Africa section.

At just $4.79, this snack combines a light, mild coconut flavor with fruity mango notes, and we couldn’t help but notice a subtle hint of banana, adding to its tropical charm. While the treat is advertised as ‘bark’, the texture of the treat is similar to fudge. Its flavor profile perfectly balances sweetness and fruitiness, with the coconut staying mild enough not to overwhelm. It’s the kind of treat that feels just right for a hot, sunny day—cool and refreshing without being overly heavy.

You’ll want to enjoy this quickly, as the bark tends to melt in your hands almost as soon as you unwrap it. We recommend grabbing a few extra napkins before you dig in to avoid sticky fingers. Despite the quick melt, the Mango Coconut Mickey Bark is a delightful, refreshing snack that’s perfect for recharging while exploring the vibrant sights and sounds of Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
