Chocolate Melting Cake question

[dansu]

My Hubby was reading the sample menus online and was concerned that he couldn't find his favourite Chocolate Melting Cake.

 

We are expected to sail on the Freedom, Jan 29th; could someone please confirm if CCL still serves this dessert.

 

Thanks

You can ask for it any and every night. :D

I am just off the Freedom (Jan 9th) and it was on the menu every night. However, I didn't find it as tasty as I did on the Triumph in March. This was only my second cruise so I'm not really sure how it is supposed to be, but on the Freedom I found it to be more cakey (more done) than the Triumph.

How many calories are in this cake that everyone speaks of? Or do I not want to know? lol

I agree it's not the same every time. When I was on Paradise, it was the opposite of cakey. It was just the thinnest shell, and the rest was the melted stuff. I liked this kind the least, but I haven't had it too cakey.

 

Of course I still ordered it a time or 2 on every cruise, just so I could compare.;)

You prob. don't want to know how many calories or you wouldn't eat it then. It isn't really a cake. I'd compare it more of a very thick dark, dark, chocolate dense custard that is slightly hard on top. I love chocolate but I rarely can finish my dessert because it is so chocolately.

MMMmmm Chocolate melting cake :) with a little bit of vanilla ice cream on the side for me.

I've been on 3 cruise in the last 7 months, and it was on the menu everynight on all of my cruises.

I read somewhere

(I don't remember where and I am not searching for it)

that it was about 1100-1200 per serving.

In the past month did 3 cruises and yes on the menu every night. Best of all did Chef's Table on the Destiny Jan 1 and we made it as our dessert - awesome and surely now have all the ingredients needed:p.....wow

Thats the way I like it too.....on our last Ecstasy cruise, I had it every night...with a side dish of vanilla ice cream and a milk. The crazies at the table next to us always made fun of my milk!

Maybe it was the ship we were on, but I did not find it very tasty! Guess I will have to give it another try on the next cruise!! ;)
