Get a scoop of vanilla gelato then take it to Cafe al Bacio and have them put a shot of espresso on it. YUM!!! They have removed it from the Menu but you can still order one.

jjikids Posted May 14, 2022 #28 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Just was on Summit for 9 days. We had the ice cream in the dining room and buffet. Almost seemed like soft ice cream. Different choices each day. Went on last day for our free scoop of gelato. The server said you get two scoops for the price. I told her we just wanted our free scoop. The cost of the regular cup is $4.50. The receipt showed the charge then the loyalty discount for no charge. We did give her a tip since she was so nice. The gelato was good but I wouldn’t pay for it when there is the free ice cream to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harp0011 Posted May 16, 2022 #30 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Is the soft ice cream self serve? Is it 24 hrs? I'll be on Eclipse in a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona Wildcat Posted May 29, 2022 #42 Share Posted May 29, 2022 Soft serve has never been available on Summit 24/7. The machines were always closed late evening for cleaning and available again fairly early each morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer321 Posted May 29, 2022 #43 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I was on the Summit in April and I'm lactose-intolerant. There was no lactose free ice cream available but they did offer non-dairy fruit sorbets. You can bring Lactaid Lactase Enzyme Supplement Caplets from home then enjoy any favor ice cream you want.

A multitude of ways to customize an ice cream craving! Anyone know what toppings are available these days? I recall sour patch kids in 2020.

buffcurmudgeon Posted May 29, 2022 #45 Share Posted May 29, 2022 On the 4 May Summit cruise, the soft serve was never available for the entire cruise.

With the exception of sugar free (which I was told is made through a different process) Celebrity makes their ice cream on board. While there will always be "basic" flavors such as vanilla and chocolate the flavors will vary each day. There is no additional fee. Gelato is available for a fee and will be located near the Cafe al Bacio. Soft serve is available and is generally located in the Mast Grill area. Sugar free strawberry ice cream is my favorite.

Hard scoop ice cream is no charge in the Oceanview Buffet (on the end of one side of the buffet area IIRC). That area has yummy cookies also. There's always ice cream on the menu in the MDR also at no charge. I think there's soft serve somewhere but I don't recall. There is soft serve (only vanilla i think) at the mast bar AND at the buffet (in addition to hard serve, and I think maybe chocolate and vanilla) flavors change a bit; but I've always seen: chocolate vanilla butter pecan strawberry pistachio after eight rum raisin cherry vanilla coconut lemon (rarely) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
