Jeal Posted March 12, 2023 #51 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I am on the Sky now. Today, the Premier desserts are being made with gelato but with much smaller pieces of candy than the ones pictured on the Princess website. If all you want is a scoop of gelato, you have to pay for it since gelato is not included in the Premier package. Seems crazy to me but that is how they are doing it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for posting … The ingredients list that OP shared with us shows a dairy free Chocolate Sorbet. I would love to have several scoops of that drowned in Hershey’s chocolate syrup and topped with sliced almonds. Yum, chocolate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they start out individually wrapped, and could just be handed over separately so they could be given later to….someone to enjoy on their own. That does look a bit nasty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t the desserts contain gelato? Take a plate and leave all of the junk that you do not want on the plate. If Princess wants to waste money that they do not have then ok.

Jeal Posted March 12, 2023 #60 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I did tell the gelato guy not to include the candy and he was fine with it. I also skipped the whipped cream and chocolate sauce. Yesterday, they did not have not any sorbet. According to the gelato guy, they only have mango and the sorbet is not part of the Premier package. Time will tell. I am not complaining - just telling what my experience has been. I’m still going to get gelato every day. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am really not a fan of sweets, especially not ice cream or gelato so, will probably just get a scoop of sorbet in the MDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right after the post-COVID startup, they didn’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they had 1 selection every night although all the different flavors of ice cream they had in past years is missing, which was disappointing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

voljeep Posted March 12, 2023 #65 Share Posted March 12, 2023 We 'might' do the Donatiello one (if that is the Key Lime Pie one). We have Plus 50, so that would not be included - but with some OBC to burn - why not? (she really doesn't 'need' another t-shirt) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since there are only Vanilla, Chocolate ice cream and Sorbet listed on the menu every day, it's no long hidden. I can't quite understand why eliminating their different flavors of ice cream is a money saver, but it seems to be the way of the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s good to hear. That was my go-to dessert most nights and I missed it when I didn’t see it. I remember even asking about it and was told it had been eliminated. But those were early days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruizinSusan70 Posted April 2, 2023 #71 Share Posted April 2, 2023 The Amaretto Affagato looks like a winner. Will have it on our Enchanted repo cruise in August of 2024. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare bronzey214 Posted April 27, 2023 #73 Share Posted April 27, 2023 I'm currently on the Crown and have been able to narrow my order to *name of premium dessert* in a to-go coffee cup, without the candy. All I really want is ice cream with some toppings.... maybe they should replace the "OceanFront" with a froyo place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
