janieb1962 Posted November 30, 2015 #1 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Dear cruisers, I'd like to buy some canapes for our cabin on one or two of the formal nights. Does anyone know if you can buy these once on board or is it only possible via cruise personaliser. Would be nice if I could buy on board thereby using up some of my OBC :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysticalmother Posted November 30, 2015 #2 Share Posted November 30, 2015 You can buy them on board but I think they usually ask for 24 hours notice?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sammybonny Posted December 1, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 1, 2015 just got back from a two week caribbean cruise on the azura and we had canapes twice as we had a superior balcony cabin.to be honest i wouldnt waste your money most of ours ended up in the bin Tend to agree.When we were in a suite a couple of years ago we were given them every night and apart from the chocolate dipped strawberries the others didn't even have the cling film taken off when they were taken away. We will be in a superior deluxe balcony this Saturday on Britainnia and I don't expect we will be eating ours. I would personally save room for something nicer to eat in the dining room.

The platters you buy are very good. Choice of two one is £11 and the other £12. There are 16 to 20 per plate and totally different to the ones delivered free to the suites. I take it you will be having a party? We always do. Sometimes two. :) :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be nice if I could buy on board thereby using up some of my OBC :D The strawberries dipped in chocolate are usually on the first formal night. You can order them with notice, I think they are about £5 but you don't get many. Will be looking out for the platter Dai describes next time as that sounds fab.

indiana123 Posted December 3, 2015 #11 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Glad they are better when bought.It sounds like a good selection. Also good to see others put the complimentary ones in the bin... we thought it was us being picky. Awful weren't they! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

annieuk Posted December 3, 2015 #13 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I must admit the complimentary canapes served to suites and mini suites are nowhere near as good as the ones on Fred Olsen. I don't eat cheese and have found a lot of cheese - particularly piped cream cheese is used. On our two trips on FO in a suite the canapes were fantastic - much more like the ones you can purchase on P&O. Dai, I eat the smoked salmon and leave the rye bread - too heavy for me. There are some good beef ones and the occasional prawn one but, as I say, lots of cheese! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
