jbethel11 Posted July 2, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 2, 2019 When I tell you that the birthday cake I received on my Harmony of the Seas cruise last year was the best cake I have ever had...I actually mean it! It was so good! Where was this cake made, as I think I remember the guy who delivered the cake saying it wasn't baked on the ship. Does anyone know?

Does that mean it was baked onboard? Or is that a joke? Apologies, I don't understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type of cake was it that was so special? The ones that I have seen that you can buy are just vanilla or chocolate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted July 2, 2019 #11 Share Posted July 2, 2019 We had a birthday cake on the ship about 20 years ago that was also delicious! Didn't compare to the "dessert" cakes available in any shape or form. This was when "birthday cakes" were complimentary......no charge back then! At least, we weren't charged!

Snit13 Posted July 2, 2019 #13 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Family sent a chocolate cake, bottle of champagne and chocolate covered strawberries for my birthday cruise on Majesty in April 2017 and it was awesome. We were not able to eat all of the cake and simply hated to leave it in cabin. Hope crew finished it. Do not believe in wasting calories on cake that is not chocolate.

Seville2Cabo Posted July 2, 2019 #16 Share Posted July 2, 2019 I think the deserts in the WJ are bad. But, on our Vision cruise last month we did speciality restaurants every night. For desert at Chops I ordered carrot cake. Was told No carrot cake. Next time in Chops, they brought me carrot cupcakes. The last night, same well tipped waitress, they brought the table a full carrot cake. It was excellent! And we took half to our cabin. The bakery in board can be excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My husband will celebrate a milestone birthday on the Adventure in November and I was really on the fence about whether to do the room/cake combo, a cake alone, the big cupcakes, or beg at the MDR! 🙂 @Seville2Cabo next time try the red velvet if they have it. Best I have ever had (whipped not overly sweet, thick icing). We ate their a 2nd night just for that cake 😂 Edited July 3, 2019 by 2Beeze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I understood too, that there is a cost. But you’ve convinced me, I will definitely get him one! The only downside is his birthday is the day before we disembark, which doesn’t give us a whole lot of time to eat a cake. You need to join us on the cruise and help us eat it 🍴🍰 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbethel11 Posted July 3, 2019 Author #23 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I cannot seem to find any pictures of the cake itself for you all to see vicariously. However, I can embed an image in your mind through taste! Yay! 1111 posts, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
