Last time I was on Princess was on Royal Princess in 2019. The buffet had (only certain nights) a sour cream chocolate cake that was so unreal I still daydream about it! Seeing all those huge pieces of cake and sundaes looks overwhelming to the point that I may not want to pay for plus or premiere. After doing a little math, I realize Plus might be the way to go. I have a sailing on Discovery in about 6 months. Thanks for posting!
@TorAndOli Ай бұрын
Plus was worth it for the drinks alone. I don't drink much but I did have a few cocktails. We made the most of it with soft drinks though! The cakes and sundaes were an added bonus but weren't enough of a selling point for me personally - although I did enjoy them!

What are examples of "non" premium desserts?
@TorAndOli 2 ай бұрын
Literally everything else that's sweet on the ship :) If you want ice cream, they sometimes have it in the buffet, it's available in the main dining rooms, and the same coffee place that makes the premium desserts also offer free ice creams too. For cake, there's literally anything you could dream up :)

I’m glad you enjoyed the video! I’m sure you’ll work your way through them during your holiday. Plan carefully though because quite often there are nicer desserts in the International Cafe than these premium ones so you have to make a judgement call!

Ugh. Glacé cherries in Black Forest Gateaux! Sorry but that breaks my baking heart, should be lovely juicy black cherries. The chocolate gateaux looks better but maybe they used buttercream and not simply slightly sweetened chocolate flavoured whipped cream, which is how I make it. You'd be surprised at how much cake some people can eat though.
@TorAndOli 2 ай бұрын
Yeah there should have been a lot more black cherry jam in it I think to be more authentic. So that's the only slice I personally had, but other people in my group had some on other days and it was slightly different - considerably more alcoholic I'm told!
@createinspain 2 ай бұрын
@@TorAndOli Yeah, in theory it should have Kirsch in it - although I hate alcohol, so I wouldn't use it:) If I make it these days I get the preserved cherries from Aldi, rather than use jam. Maybe the cake got stale and alcohol was used to moisten it! As a keen amateur baker for many years, I'm often disappointed with restaurant baked goods.

We just returned 5 days ago from an Alaskan cruise with Princess cruises. Had a great time. Of all the lines we’ve cruised with, I really think Princess does food the best. And I love that they have a 3 o’clock tea on sea days. As for those huge pieces of cake, they were giving pieces away for free on our last day at sea. I got the Red Velvet and hubby got the chocolate so we could taste both. The pieces are huge, and neither of us could finish our pieces. BTW: Not sure where any of you may be sailing, but you may want to seriously consider wearing a mask if it’s anywhere in the Pacific Northwest because out of the 8 of us traveling together, 6 of us are now sick. My hubby and I tested positive for Covid. We had sniffles the day we disembarked, and tested positive the next day. It’s surging now in this area. My niece works at a hospital in the S.F. South Bay, and she says it’s also surging there and they are expecting it to continue as kids return to school.

"Gelato" on the Regal Princess was right across the Piazza from the International Cafe, both on Deck 5 and the Agnolatti at Alfredo's was just above on Deck 6.

Hi! I'm glad you like the videos - I hope you're not too disappointed though, we don't get to travel too often so the videos will be sporadic. There are a couple of vlogs about the cruise I have released, and I also sailed with P&O UK last year too so there are vlogs from that. It's true, Tony was indeed on our sailing but I didn't realise until I got back and didn't see him on-board. I'm going through all of my raw video footage to see if he's snuck in the background somewhere! I don't personally know Ben and David but I have watched every one of their videos, they are brilliant!
