Oak Hill Cruisers Posted October 8, 2017 #51 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Instead of crystal blocks how about having chocolate blocks. Exactly! Just like on MSC. My Splendida crumbly chocolate ship was scrumptious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted October 8, 2017 #52 Share Posted October 8, 2017 LOL!! :p Though probably not a pretty sight on tropical cruises or this Florida heat! Look more like a chocolate fountain. :eek: Just crank up the AC in the cabin and put it in the (for lack of better terms) refrigerator. ;):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grapau27 Posted October 8, 2017 #53 Share Posted October 8, 2017 LOL!! [emoji14]Though probably not a pretty sight on tropical cruises or this Florida heat! Look more like a chocolate fountain. :eek: The chocolate has additives added to stop it melting too quickly in hot climates. Mine vanishes that quickly it doesn't get the chance to melt lol.

Rare island lady Posted October 8, 2017 #55 Share Posted October 8, 2017 The chocolate has additives added to stop it melting too quickly in hot climates.Mine vanishes that quickly it doesn't get the chance to melt lol. Bought some decadent dark chocolate from a chocolate shop, where they make their own chocolates, in Maine. Was a gift for my sister in law. Bucky managed to leave it in the trunk of the car, (maybe to keep it from his reach?) when he went to see his Mom. Chocolate soup!! Uggh!! Put it in the fridge, still tasted good, but totally different shape! :o:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Boy Posted October 8, 2017 #56 Share Posted October 8, 2017 The Easter bunny is much cuter. :');p I think that both the Bunny and Santa stand a better chance of being real than the "jewels" in those pins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My chocolate moto is waste not want not.;) As a matter of fact as I'm typing this I'm enjoying a glass of red wine (cabernet sovereign) with a piece of dark chocolate. :wine-glass: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEVE-O Posted October 8, 2017 #60 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Maybe RCI recently changed their policy, but they refused to mail a block to us on a cruise out of Venice, Italy. Per the LA, our choice was to either take the block now or loose your right to ever get it. I got one mailed to me by calling C&A 2 months ago.....took awhile to get here.

When I hosted wine tastings I always had a bowl of Dove dark chocolates on hand to bring out the full taste of the rich red wine I was featuring. :* Also worked well with a deep dark Old Vine Zinfandel. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was waiting for us when we arrived home today from Vision of the Seas. C&A rep did the math and determined we were on Jewel. I petitioned for a Radiance but the rep held her ground. I understand. Good Luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexkrn46 Posted October 30, 2017 #75 Share Posted October 30, 2017 We were over 140 when the C&A conversion occurred. We were told no block since it was a new policy, have they changed their policy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
