Blue Velvet Cheesecake

[kangaand2roos]

This brooklyn boy has been to juniors many many times for the cheesecake. Carnivals is not close to being in its league.

 

Have you ever had Harold's cheesecake? OMG! So good..of course, one slice is enough to feed a small nation!

Are you talking about the Harolds in NJ that has sandwiches with just over a pound of meat?

 

If so yes and excellent.

That's the place! I think the cheesecake was over a pound! I drool thinking about that place! The matzoh balls are the size of softballs!

Many New Yorkers think they invented pizza, too. They didn't invent either.

 

The cheesecake is marvelous. :)

Cheesecake at the steakhouse on Liberty two weeks ago was huge, looked great and after two bites decided not worth eating.

 

Did have a very good one at tea time a year or so ago.

 

Agree was on the same cruise. Chocolate sampler from this point on.

Blue Velvet Cake is apparently only $1.95/slice!

This looks interesting! May just have to try it in about 33 days! :)

That doesn't look like cheesecake to me just a cake coloured blue.

Does the world really need cheesecake with a blue dye to it????

Agree 100%. While I am not a fan of cheesecake, I can't imagine how any artificially colored cake (especially blue) could be appealing to me.

Not sure it is cheesecake but seems to have given some a conniption. :D

That's what I was thinking. Maybe the frosting is cheesecake flavored. Does look good though.

Have not been there for a few years but the place is awesome.

My wife gets migraines from a number of things including food dyes so we watch this closely.

 

In any case eating something that is artificially colored blue is not something I would want.

For anyone who doesnt understand, never said New York style cheesecake was invented in

NY (have no idea where it was invented) but that is what it is called and 8 million NYers would agree with me.

Agreed! That much artificial blue food coloring and the mislabeling as "cheesecake" make for a complete turnoff for me. Gross.

I think it looks blue. No thank you. :eek:

I cruise on the Glory in two days and would like to know if I'll be able to buy a slice of Blue Velvet Cheesecake. Please say yes.

Its great but dont count calories or sugar or fat contents.

It appears to be a layer cake with cream cheese frosting.

 

Correct, not a "cheesecake" but rather a cake with cheese frosting. ;)

[poison7fl]

When they start offering good old NY style cheese cake call me.

 

Only kind we like consistently.

 

Born and raised in NY state, and the best is from the nuns..

Exactly!!

 

According to the menu posted here http://www.zydecocruiser.net/CarnivalSunshineMay17/JavaBlueCafeMenupdf.pdf

it is Blue Velvet CAKE - NOT cheese cake!!

 

So....it's just like Red Velvet - but blue! ;)

This is a good thing?:confused:

I'm not sure I'd want a blue cake. Though, I'd love a slice of this on the cruise....except its not a carbival product.

 

I will admit, I love good cheesecake. And desserts for that matter. My friends constantly give me request lists of my baking.

 

PS. I do share recipes

LOL...I hear 'ya - but it's certainly better than blue cheesecake IMHO! :eek: ;)

We had the cheesecake at the steakhouse on the Splendor. Had 2 bites, didn't finish the rest. It wasn't anywhere near as good as NY style cheesecake.

 

I agree. The chef came and chatted with our group for a while, and he said that they get a ton of complaints about the steak house cheesecake on NYC sailings because people expect it to be NY style cheesecake, and it's not.

 

It was one of the worst cheesecakes I've ever eaten.

Ooooo I will be trying that on the Sunshine in December
