AHS123 Posted December 29, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) Last month we enjoyed the Funfetti cake on the first day of the cruise at the Lido Buffet on Carnival Magic. When we sailed Carnival Radiance last August we were told by a Sous Chef the Funfetti cake isn't served on that ship. We sail Carnival Panorama next month and I'm writing to ask if anyone recalls if the Panorama serves the Funfetti cake? I know I read here in 2019 the Funfetti is only available on embark day but I don't know if this is still the case. I won't get my hopes up unless someone posts good news here for me. Thank you for reading. Edited December 29, 2022 by AHS123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Itried4498 Posted December 29, 2022 #11 Share Posted December 29, 2022 It’s been offered on every cruise (Panorama, Radiance and Miracle) I’ve taken from Los Angeles this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babygrljaz Posted December 30, 2022 #21 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Vista, Dream & Breeze all had it this past year. Wish it was offered more than on embarkation day only 🫶 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish it was offered more than on embarkation day only 🫶 It really is good, isn't it? So many of the cheesecake dessert items served in the lido these days have gelatin added so the food cost is reduced by using less cream cheese and using gelatin for body. The cheesecake used in this cake has not been diluted with gelatin. This cake, and the cheesecake served in the steakhouses, seem to be the only exceptions to the gelatin added desserts so common now on Carnival. I agree it would be nice to have the Funfetti cake offered more than just the first day. I'll go so far to say it should be included on the dessert menu for an elegant night in the MDR! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MsOne Posted December 31, 2022 #23 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I will make sure to look for this. Not really into sweets but the rave reviews in this thread have certainly peaked my interest 😋 ...especially the lack of artificial ingredients lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good for you, before Carnival cruises I had never heard of this recipe. It's a hybrid of traditional birthday cake with one thick layer of cheesecake in the middle.

tattoos Posted December 31, 2022 #25 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Horizon definitely has this Funfetti cake but available only on embarkation day during lunch hours in the Lido Marketplace. It is delicious and better than chocolate melting cake, in my opinion. I stop at the cake station first and get two pieces before I decide what I want for lunch and sometimes this cake is my lunch. I brought a piece back to my stateroom when I sailed in April and enjoyed it in my stateroom later in the evening . I'm sailing on the Sunrise in February, hope they have it available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
