Some of the flavors on this cruise are different than what we had in December. If the HS flavor has leftovers, it shows up at Waves Grill the next day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sujormik Posted July 1, 2023 #53 Share Posted July 1, 2023 The chocolate with orange peel was good, don’t recall the name. Apple miso was not. Missed fat Elvis, sadly. Jam and toast was ok. Blood orange sorbet wasn’t super bloody but was tasty with chocolate shavings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cape Hernlopen Posted July 2, 2023 #56 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Dear Ice Cream Lovers: We just finished our second cruise with HS ice cream (19 days on Insignia). My favorites were Regatta Royale, Meyer Lemon and Pound Cake, Chocolate Gardine, Coffee, Black Sessame, and Summer Corn. Coffee was a new flavor since our trip in November. Several others were O.K. but not special. The non-HS "Tutti Fruiti and Raspberry were very good. Joel Barry 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think it was a nice addition to regular flavors they offer. Those sound great! And SO San Francisco 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They generally offer 1 flavor per day, available in the Terrace Cafe and Waves and also often on the GDR menu. Sometimes one of the three places will have a different flavor, generally the one from the day before. I thought the quality was good. Particular favorites were Meyer Lemon, After School Special, and Vietnamese Coffee. Elvis the Fat Years was up there. I wasn't a big fan of Secret Breakfast. I don't like a strong alcohol taste in my ice cream.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redtravel Posted January 25 #69 Share Posted January 25 Vietnamese coffee was my Slocombe favorite. Some flavors are good. Some are strange. Vanilla is always available. Yummy! Ice cream on Oceania is good. Other Desserts ? Cakes tarts, and cookies on Oceania aren’t my thing. There was an apple tart one night at dinner in GDR that was outstanding. Best pastry is in the Bakery. Eclair is amazing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely have any desserts other than a souffle or -- if I don't like the daily offering -- ice cream. I have had the Key Lime pie a time or two. The cookies are not worth the calories. I save mine for the croissants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
