kingsgirl Posted May 24, 2013 #27 Share Posted May 24, 2013 We bought the cake once. It was really good actually. When you order it online, you can choose where and when you want to get it. (ie. in your stateroom on the second night or in the DR on the third night) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
labeachcomber Posted May 24, 2013 #28 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I've gotten "Happy Birthday" written in cursive chocolate frosting on the rim of my dessert plate, but certainly no free cake. It's understandable. People can claim they're celebrating anything - birthday, anniversary, wedding, graduation, etc. there would be hundreds of free cakes every night if this were the case!

nelblu Posted May 24, 2013 #29 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I don't know why they ask if there's a special occasion involved--never got anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howielovescruisin Posted May 24, 2013 #30 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I cruised on the Monarch this past September for my birthday. We took our granddaughter with us and she told the cabin steward very first thing we were onboard celebrating "Poppys" birthday. On my actual birthday 2 days later there was a chocolate cake delivered to me in our stateroom. I didn't order it and neither did my wife, I'm assuming it was from the ship.

Green Recruit Posted May 24, 2013 #31 Share Posted May 24, 2013 We just spent 2 weeks on the Grandeur. My Mom came along to celebrate her 86th birthday. On that day we were invited to the Chief Engineer's table. Before they brought the special dessert, I was surprised to see a whole cake show up complete with singing. We had 2 different head waiters, our waiters from the regular table, and the ones serving the officer's table. The cake was put in the refrigerator and saved for the next night. When we had it cut, there were enough pieces for about 10 people so we shared with those around us. And yes, her name was on the cake, and spelled correctly too! So things do happen when you least expect it! Teri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
