Thank you so much for posting this. I just ordered it for my DD's birthday.
You're welcome! Your dd will love it!


Thank you so much for posting this. I just ordered it for my DD's birthday.
I booked a trip yesterday and when I mentioned it was a 10th anny trip, the CM noted a celebration cake for the first night at dinner and I thought he said there was no charge as with previous sailings.

Post 6 was quoting the in-room birthday package that includes a cake and decorations. The original poster and I are waiting for a rumored new list for dining room birthday cakes. There used to be a free birthday cake served in the dinining room for the table. Now we are hearing that they are no longer free.

YES, we noted our reservation, Yes we spoke to our Server and HS. We were told because near 70% of cruisers had SOMEONE in the party celebrating a special occassion on the cruise, it made for a lot of extra work. He went on to say, how there were many people who would note celebrations for birthdays and anniversaries as far out as 4 months and how that makes for a lot of celebrations. He apologized and still gave us the form. Even though I have now celebrated my actual birthday on the ship 3 times and once we renewed our vows on our ACTUAL 10th (The EXACT day) of our 10th AnniversaryI have gotton many versions of FREE Cakes. The jello like one, the real cake and now this mousse scoop. Our HS went on to say, since DISNEY does not say no to particular people, they just had to stop it for all. He informed us last month, we were only the 2nd sailing that the new policy went into effect for.
We did not order the cake, not to be cheap, but just because they told me they could make it allergy sensative, but eggs were not listed as one they could do. Nuts, dairy, gluten but not eggs. So we passed on the ordering.
Now our previous cruise our HS totally spoiled us. On the actual night of my birthday, he brought a cake to the table that was egg free. The problem is, DH and I were not at dinner that night, we went to Palo instead. There were 16 of us at the table, so I did not think we would be missed.So the very next night (the night after my actual birthday) he arranged to have another brought to the table. I cried!!! It was sooooo special. It was the first time DD and I actually could share in a cake together; that I did not have to make.
So this time, I just took the scoop of mousse and chalked it up to abuse of special perks that DCL once gave. I did write on the comment card that maybe they could limit the free real cakes to people celebrating a birthday within 7 days prior or 7 days after a cruise date. They know our birthdays after all. This would lessen the request. I do realize as stated here many times before when people ask; "What do they do for birthdays"; that many many people celebrate birthdays on the cruise. I swear each night at dinner the staff sings Happy Birthday at least 8 - 10 times.
You would be suprise at how many Birthday Pillowcase Request I get. I know it has to be close to 60% have "It's my Daughter/Son's Birthday Cruise". So I guess I understand the change.![]()
Ok, sorry those came out huge! In the morning I will try to repost. The order form came out small. I really am trying....That is the dessert now though. Kchasher is also going to try for me.
For now I am going to type out the pricing....
