All seem to have some kind of baked good included. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissP22 Posted March 3, 2023 #56 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I talked to a drunken woman last night trying to carry and eat one of those concoctions on the elevator. Pure entertainment. 😆 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shorne Posted April 26, 2023 #61 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Those things look like a godawful mess, not appealing at all. Just looking at them makes me feel ill. I can't imagine wanting to eat that stuff. And the «Premium» package includes unlimited numbers of these things? Pity the person who gets the job of washing all that sticky muck off the outsides of the glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picture them as young people around 20 years old, never been on a cruise ship, still watch adult cartoons, and play video games. Anyway, it's hard to accept that Carnival Corp. would let anyone be give free reign to construct just a mess of a dessert & still be employed. Maybe I'm just getting to old for what the newer generation thinks a cruise should be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then it occurred to me that I might be the odd one out, and that passengers in the main might enjoy that mountain of sugar. After all, vulgarity and down-market tastes are by no means rare on cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MissP22 Posted April 26, 2023 #65 Share Posted April 26, 2023 It should prove interesting to see how long those concoctions last before they offer something decent. Right now I think people are still just ordering them to find our what there all about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kywildcatfanone Posted April 26, 2023 #67 Share Posted April 26, 2023 You have to get something for paying the prices for plus and premier. I guess a couple of $1 desserts make up for the $450 7 day cruise cost for drinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might try one just so I could talk/write about it, but I must say, I'd rather have some quality scoops of real ice cream or gelato. I have had a number of gourmet-restaurant-quality desserts in my past, but none like these. I had one of the "DaVincis" on the Caribbean P a couple months ago...just after they came out. I consider it one of those "one and done" type items...it was just OK but a bit ridiculous given all the "extra" stuff they stick out the top. I'm with you on the ice cream or gelato. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare PandaBear62 Posted April 26, 2023 #71 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I ordered one today for dh and I to share. The tiramisu one. Because it’s a sundae glass and quite sloped, there wasn’t even 2 scoops of ice cream in it. The top has a little ice cream, 2 thin rectangles of chocolate and a square of tiramisu fall red cake. So not nearly as big as it appears. We enjoyed it, but it’s probably a one and done for me this trip. I asked if I could “make my own sundae” and the answer was “no”. Just the 5 or 6 they offer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they were making it you should have told the guy to stop once he had the ice cream in the glass. Forget about all the extras on top & it might actually be OK.

Santa Clarita: "We need to make these desserts happen without increasing our bottles expenditure. Hey, elites can make do with 6 bottles!" 😆 Just as long as i can still trade the minibar. Now to see if I can trade it for obc in 3 weeks It took me 2 weeks to drop my cruise weight and I'm on in 3 weeks. So I really don't need these. Will stick to 2 scoups gelato / ice cream / sorbet and a (1) chocolate chip / oatmeal raisin / pb cookie after lunch or dinner.
