Silverspringcruiser Posted April 28, 2014 Author #26 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I just can't figure out where to put more dessert into my schedule. Should I have it before or after my afternoon pizza? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
092306 Posted April 28, 2014 #27 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I've only had it a couple of times, but the chocolate cake at the coffee bar is soooo good and worth paying an extra $2.50. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheTravelista Posted April 28, 2014 #28 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Because they're delicious. What more reason is needed? I love the chocolate cake, the carrot cake, the cheesecake, the fruit tarts and the chocolate covered strawberries. Love the milkshakes as well. And the gelato!!!

WAHMto5 Posted April 28, 2014 #29 Share Posted April 28, 2014 We love the chocolate covered strawberries! The cake is a great afternoon sweet for our family to share;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky2 Posted April 28, 2014 #30 Share Posted April 28, 2014 We have. I think one of those big slices is $2.50 and we shared and still couldn't finish it. Just couldn't pass it up because it looked sooooo good! We shared a huge piece of carrot cake. My SO finished his half & I put part of mine in the fridge. Never did finish it. It was yummy but so-o-o so rich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topguy Posted April 28, 2014 #31 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I have a tradition of buying a piece of the carrot cake on the first or second day. I always take what I can't finish back to the cabin to finish off later the next day. The desserts at the coffee bar put the MDR to shame. So much better and definitely worth the price.

francina Posted April 28, 2014 #32 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Their strawberry short cake is to die for. I could eat it in one sitting. Just have to take a whole lot of insulin😄 Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babyher Posted April 28, 2014 #33 Share Posted April 28, 2014 You are gonna be dead a lot longer than you are going to be alive . It's $2.50 for a nice piece of cake. ENJOY :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted April 28, 2014 #34 Share Posted April 28, 2014 In addition, those who spend their money the way they want is because they can. I've seen posts in the past "Why would someone pay extra to dine in a specialty restaurant when there is plenty of free food?". It's because they can and it is not for me to question why. Totally agree with the above. Basically, people are willing to pay more to get something better. :) LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruise_junki Posted April 28, 2014 #35 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I've gained 6 lbs just reading all the posts on this thread! Now I think I might just have to talk the Hubster into springing for a slice or two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rednose83 Posted April 28, 2014 #37 Share Posted April 28, 2014 With all the delicious desserts Carnival already provides what reason is there to spend money on pastries at the coffee bar? Are they that much better? I know the coffee is better; that I understand. Carnivals desserts are disgusting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

land64shark Posted April 28, 2014 #40 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Okay, you've talked me into it! I longingly drool over the cakes, but have never partaken. This time I will. Thanks for the push. :p I have gotten a birthday cake for my mom before and it was quite good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverpenguin Posted April 29, 2014 #42 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Never bought the cake or pastries, but the chocolate covered strawberries are awesome. They don't serve that on lido. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrettyHazardous Posted April 29, 2014 #44 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I never get the cake but I love the strawberries. I get them 3-4x. I also ordered a non voyage cake and lived it on my lady cruise. So I plan to order an anniversary one too. I love the one with strawberry filling.

Sarah@Sea Posted April 29, 2014 #46 Share Posted April 29, 2014 With all the delicious desserts Carnival already provides what reason is there to spend money on pastries at the coffee bar? Are they that much better? I know the coffee is better; that I understand. That CARROT CAKE is delicious! and it's only like $1.95 or $2.95 and yes enough for 2 people. You can get steak in the MDR but people still pay $35 to eat in the steakhouse...right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarah@Sea Posted April 29, 2014 #47 Share Posted April 29, 2014 The birthday cake...no, never again....for birthdays we get the carrot cake...lol. Also, we had a lot of OBC and we don't drink much and the ship we were on had no steakhouse so we visited the cafe often for lattes, and such.

For the same reason people buy a fruit basket when it's readily available in the buffet area every day...because it's there and because people can.
