E@syPe@zy Posted June 26, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Get there when it starts or everybody else will pick it clean. It's one of those things that I usually forget about until it's almost over. Probably best anyway....sure don't need to add to the sugar and calorie count!

Wombservice Posted June 27, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Just got off the Horizon yesterday and in Lido they had a wonderful chocolate cake set up - they had 7 or 8 different chocolate cakes, and the ones we tried (German Chocolate, Triple Chocolate, Chocolate Coffee) we’re moist and delicious! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kona_wahine Posted June 27, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 27, 2018 I love love love chocolate. I skip the “chocolate” buffet. Yuck. Order room service chocolate cake...YUM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalaDragonflyLady Posted June 27, 2018 #11 Share Posted June 27, 2018 There's a reason it's labeled "choco", most of it is not good quality and not worth the calories. I consider myself a chocoholic but like others, I want better quality and I generally don't eat Hershey's, I prefer higher quality, at least Lindt :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argigi Posted June 27, 2018 #12 Share Posted June 27, 2018 They had the chocolate buffet on the Dream when I was there in May. But honestly only a few things tasted so so. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crooooze Posted June 27, 2018 #14 Share Posted June 27, 2018 The “Chocolate Extravaganza” is typically only on cruises that are 7 days or longer. It’s only during lunch on the last sea day in the Lido. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purvis1231 Posted June 27, 2018 #15 Share Posted June 27, 2018 We sailed on the Dream a few weeks ago, the chocolate buffet was not worth the time. I would go to tea time for some good treats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wombservice Posted June 27, 2018 #16 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Were these the cakes Carnival serves each day on the lido dessert buffet or specifically part of the chocolate extravaganza buffet?Thanks Thinking it was probably just the cakes on the Lido buffet - we only noticed it on our last sea day.

schazzy Posted June 27, 2018 #17 Share Posted June 27, 2018 We sailed on the Dream a few weeks ago, the chocolate buffet was not worth the time. I would go to tea time for some good treats. I agree with this, I've tried the chocolate buffet twice now, and neither time was it worth dealing with the crowd, the afternoon tea is really good, never has been crowded.

sanmarcosman Posted June 27, 2018 #18 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Thinking it was probably just the cakes on the Lido buffet - we only noticed it on our last sea day. But they were delicious!! I saw the video J.H. took on Horizon of the new cakes and they look much better than anything put out for the chocolate buffet. Thanks for the clarification.

dsotm73 Posted June 27, 2018 #20 Share Posted June 27, 2018 Most of the items on the chocolate buffet are made of a waxy substance that resembles chocolate in every regard but taste. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzloolue Posted June 27, 2018 #21 Share Posted June 27, 2018 They have a source for cakes that look beautiful, but have no taste. It really is a waste... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bizeemom4 Posted June 27, 2018 #22 Share Posted June 27, 2018 They have a source for cakes that look beautiful, but have no taste. It really is a waste... Agreed. It’s facade food.

TracyESQ Posted June 28, 2018 #25 Share Posted June 28, 2018 The “Chocolate Extravaganza” is typically only on cruises that are 7 days or longer. It’s only during lunch on the last sea day in the Lido. We just sailed the Horizon on a 4-day and they had it in the Lido at lunch on the last sea day. Maybe they do more on a 7-day? All I noticed was a chocolate fountain and all the cakes in the Sweets area were chocolate themed. I tried the chocolate layer cake which was decent and the chocolate mousse cake which was gross.
