3D Dessert Discovery
Shortly after 7:30pm, we checked in for the dessert event and went inside. Not long afterwards, Abby was behind us while checking in so we stood (or sat) around until it was time to start.
I noticed while waiting - it seemed no where as crowded as last years. Even 5 minutes before it was to start, the waiting area had enough room for people to sit and relax and not crowd each other before opening.
At 8pm, the 'rush' happened. All the tables in the front part of the room were taken but once we went to the other side of the "sweet seats" - it was very very open. Abby saved us a table while my husband and I split up to get some desserts.
Menu!
If you look at the menu's closely - you see that the same stations are repeated multiple places throughout the event. The only stations not repeated are the babycakes station & the candy one.
For my first plate,
I had some of the miniture pastries -
The Chocolate Chip Cannoli was good
Miniture Eclair - good
Cheese! - always good (but very safe flavors of cheese)
Whoopie Pie - Eh
Puff Pastry - Eh
To drink, I visited the flambeed station & picked up the
Iced Coffee Cream w/ Bourbon Pipettes
My first one of these only had 1 pipette which wasn't very strong with that coffee flavor. When I went back for a second one - I picked up a few more of them and could then taste it!
My husband's first plate:
He visited the babycakes (which he had no idea was gluten free/etc.), miniture table & cheese.
He loved the babycakes cookie & icing sandwich & made me get him some more on my next go around.
He loved everyone on his plate.
He went sober for his drink of choice:
Fruit Punch
We did a couple more trips each with each plate getting smaller than the last. I did enjoy the cheeses to help balance out all the sweets. We took some of the cotton candy (to go) and enjoyed that after going home the next day.
The flambeed donuts were amazing like they were last year - but very very rich & you can't eat anything afterwards.
Apparently some people thought it would be fun to dress up at this event:
I wasn't sure if they were lost on their way to the
MNSSHP or something.
After an hour, my husband & I were done. We just can't eat that many sweets even with the savory items to balance it out. We said goodbye to Abby & headed back to the resort to resume packing.
We were given goodie bags upon leaving.
Inside were some truffles & caramels. They are currently in our kitchen island candy bowl waiting to be eaten but we haven't felt like it yet.
I overall enjoyed this event. If its offered next year, I think we are going to pass though. It had very similar items to last year which was a bit of a disappointment to my husband and me as we wanted more new items. Hopefully, if all goes well, we'll be living in Florida by then so if it changes & I read about in reviews, we can always add it into the plans later on.
You're right, I think I would have left that lunch and wanted to go to Beaches and Cream or something. I think the Pigs foot and the cheese would have been my favorite courses and I'd never had pigs foot, so I don't know that I would have liked that.
