Rare Coral Posted December 10, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 10, 2022 It is called Chocolate Hazelnut bar with Citrus cream. I had this on another cruise recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VibeGuy Posted December 10, 2022 #3 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Yes, it’s been a standard in the rotation since the start of their relationship with Norman Love. It’s definitely available on all 7NT or longer sailings. It may make an appearance on shorter sailings, especially if there’s a formal night.

Rare donswife Posted December 10, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I'm pretty sure we had it on Discovery last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satxdiver Posted December 10, 2022 #5 Share Posted December 10, 2022 We have had it on every cruise since it was introduced and it is sinfully delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justafem Posted December 10, 2022 #6 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I'd forgotten how much fun and tasty princess desserts really can be. Thanks for that memory and the looking forward to. Now wondering around the house seeing if there's something more than hummus to snack on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare JimmyVWine Posted December 10, 2022 #9 Share Posted December 10, 2022 My family calls it the Viking Ship and it has been ordered and loved on every cruise we’ve been on since its introduction. It is as much a staple for us as the Fettuccine Alfredo and Escargot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandyoftheseas Posted December 10, 2022 #10 Share Posted December 10, 2022 I wonder when the new premier package starts will these desserts only be available to those guests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should hope not. Remove the better desserts and there's not much else left except ice cream & creme brulee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is just why they might do it to encourage all the people who like the Norman Love desserts to upgrade to the premier package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see that so far... only those newly concocted ice cream monstrosities I saw in photo's. They were more designed to attract children than an adult. btw- what happened to smize cream? Not that I would pay extra for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The desserts left around from the Norman Love days are just called Chocolate Journey desserts now since Love contract has ended. At least the desserts didn't have to end at the same time. When contract ended with Curtis Stone, his dishes were erased from the menus and at least a couple of those were favorites of many guests. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VibeGuy Posted December 18, 2022 #17 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Yes, Princess had a licensing deal with him for name and several recipes he developed. Vastly improved their dessert execution when it came to chocolate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was weird - you are right, they were on the menus several times during a cruise and they are just now gone. Was the sea bass in the dining room or Crown Grill? I knew several who love the one in the Crown Grill. Edited December 18, 2022 by Coral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
