Does Carnival usually have sorbet?

[Cherries Jubilee]

I can’t eat ice cream and I have been wondering about this. Even if they don’t have any in the MDR do they usually have a dairy free option at Java Blue?

 

 I see so many people choose ice cream when the other dessert options don’t appeal to them.

i get sorbet in the MDR.  it's not usually on the menu.  last cruise they had 4 different flavors available every night in MDR.  i didn't know about it and the server asked what i wanted.  i said i wanted something different.  she brought me 3 different flavors for my dessert :)

Thank you! I’m definitely going to ask.

I've only had it the main dining room and it's not really on the menu as mentioned.  I get Pinapple sorbet most every night since most of the desserts involve chocolate or nuts. I know they have orange and lime as well.

Oooh I love pineapple but I will be happy to have any flavor!

Lol the waiters always called it sherbet in the Mdr. Has it changed? Or are they the same thing. Yes I've gotten it in the Mdr and flavors vary. Rainbow, to pineapple. Just never heard it called sorbet. 

 

I think I saw it on vista in the front of the buffet area, very limited hours during lunch and called sorbet.

You definitely want to make sure it's Sorbet vs Sherbet if you're allergic to dairy, as Sherbet has cream in it.

I know there is it the area where they serve the gelato?

Yes Sherbet is not dairy free so I will make sure I specify. Gotta be extra careful if they have both!

I think you saw the gelato churning station located in the buffet area at lunch only on Vista class ships.

Carnival didn't have sorbet, except on ships with the steakhouse. Supposedly it is on the new menus, but I haven't seen them in person yet.  My daughter has a severe dairy allergy, so we are keeping track of it.
