CruisinCadie Posted May 28, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 28, 2023 I notice our TA has purchased 2 specialty desserts for each of us on our upcoming cruise. I haven't sailed Princess since 2021 and don't remember seeing them before. What are they? I'm suspecting something extremely high in calories and/or alcoholic. Thanks, Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lady Arwen Posted May 28, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 28, 2023 They are a combination of ice cream/gelato, cake, candies and other stuff in a large glass with goo dripping down the sides. Yum! lol. I think you’ll either love it or hate it. We get them complimentary with our Plus Package, but I doubt if we’ll bother more than once. Since yours are a gift, then I’d go ahead and give it a go. You may like it! Could some kind member please post a photo? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay S Posted May 28, 2023 #5 Share Posted May 28, 2023 I’m wondering how to actually eat that without ending up covered in goo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senga Posted May 29, 2023 #6 Share Posted May 29, 2023 I checked them out on the Sky Princess, quite willing to pay $12 since we didn't have the Premium Package. Not one appealed to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawk/hornfan Posted May 29, 2023 #7 Share Posted May 29, 2023 I would gladly trade my premium desserts, juice bar, and fitness classes with Plus for OBC. But extra charges for perks no one wants is high profit margin for Princess. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike45LC Posted May 29, 2023 #8 Share Posted May 29, 2023 They use Sunday glasses with pre-melted chocolate with sprikkles frozen on the edge of the glass as if it is oozing over. But it is fake. And you can’t nibble that “oozed” chocolate. I tried the premium desserts and was disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianCruiser21 Posted May 29, 2023 #9 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Do they really give those mini bottles of liquor? They are so cute. I am tempted to order the sundae just to get the little bottle. I assume they are unopened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I planned to order just *one* of these things for the laughs and photo, not cause I wanted to eat it... but if the little liquor bottles are unopened, that might be fun. I'm kind of assuming that they open them though before sticking them in, but it would be fun if someone knew first hand :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sayin that the chocolate and candies stuck to the outside of the glasses are for decoration only? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9CB Posted May 29, 2023 #12 Share Posted May 29, 2023 I wonder if we can just get a scoop of gelato as a "specialty dessert?" I love gelato, but I'm not interested in all that other stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Coral Posted May 29, 2023 #18 Share Posted May 29, 2023 Just now, Coral said: Ok - I never thought I would order this. I rarely eat ice cream as I don't do well with dairy. Getting back from Victoria, I went ahead and ordered the one with cheese cake. They are not as large as they look and there is not as much inside as it appears. I have to say it was good. With Plus package, you are entitled to 2 per day. I ordered 1 on the cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't get the chocolate or marshmallows off. I probably could have pulled the marshmallows off but they didn't come off with the spoon. I ordered this and then they were made in a back room and it was brought out about 5 minutes after I ordered it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a lot of the Royal classships that I've been on lately Enchanted Sky and Discovery Even the Regal as well they have their cake slices in the gelato area. But those look like they very well could be by in the international cafe on whichever ship this is that you're on the specialty cake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jeter02 Posted May 29, 2023 #23 Share Posted May 29, 2023 I could definitely go for one of the slices of that red velvet cake I see there they both look rather delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between the International Cafe and the Coffee area. I have no clue where the gelato was (Lido?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I know the crowns the sister ship to the Ruby so I remember when the Ruby came out they used to keep the gelato in a section at international Cafe. It's been a while since I've been on the review a couple years ago so I don't know if they rearranged it or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
