Which Ships Serve Funfetti Cheesecake?

[AHS123]

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.

It was there on the first day of our Panorama cruise a few weeks ago.

Horizon and Panorama are sister ships and both serve the excellent gelato so there's a good chance you will see Funfetti cake on your embarkation day.

They did Nov. 2021

It’s always the first day.

It’s been offered on every cruise (Panorama, Radiance and Miracle) I’ve taken from Los Angeles this year.

I would have bet every Carnival ship.

I didn't see it when I was there a couple of weeks ago.  I was looking forward to finally trying it. 😞

That's strike two for the Excel Class ships. Now I know the Vista Class ships have it so I know more now than when I started this topic. Thanks to all who shared their recent experiences.

Vista, Dream & Breeze all had it this past year. 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!

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.

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.

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.
