I decided to order the Love Boat Dream as I remembered that I used to order that freqently on our early cruises. GAH!!! I was horribly disappointed to receive the stupid crud depicted above. What is wrong with Princess??? Why would they not offer creme brulee and the ruin the Love Boat Dream? I was sooooooooooooo disappointed. Finally, one night one of our dinner companions collared a "white jacket" in the dining room and told him how dissappointed I was about the lack of creme brulee and told him that I always order that. (Pretty much true. I probably order that 90% of the time.) He left and we kept waiting for someone to take our dessert order. Finally he came back and had creme brulee for all 4 of us. It was great (and I naturally thanked him effusively) but I really don't understand these weird changes. don't hold back - put the blame squarely where it belongs - ON JOHN PADGETT, right? 🤑😉 j/k Edited May 26, 2022 by voljeep 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a favorite of SO MANY CRUISERS and was perfection (in my opinion)! Every night that we ate in the MDR (over 14 cruises) I ordered the Love Boat Dream. I endured teasing from my family for not trying something different, but I like what I like. I have a peanut allergy, so I know it is safe. I just can't believe that they messed with it. There are so many mediocre things that they could tweak, but they do this! My SIL & BIL are cruising to Alaska right now (we were supposed to go, but had to cancel before final payment) and he sent me a pic of a dessert and said that this is now the Love Boat Dream. I laughed and thought he was kidding. Today, my SIL sent a message that he wasn’t kidding and they were a bit shocked when it came. We cruised in November and it was the same. Any info? First pic ”new”, second pic “old” I had the "old" one on Discovery in April. Once was enough, not terribly impressed. Taste/enjoyment is so variable.

Steelers36 Posted May 26, 2022 #28 Share Posted May 26, 2022 The more recent chocolate LBD was a change from the original as @caribill pointed out. Probably a cost savings in ingredients and time-to-prepare (or both). Regardless, the new one looks so different, why didn't they ADD it as a new option and KEEP the old? That way folks could have a choice - and even try them side-by-side for a double. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
