Cruise Desserts

We got back from our 7 day Southern Carribean cruise with our best friends Matthew and Lindsay 2 weeks ago and I can still smell the amazing desserts! I am always so impressed with the desserts on cruises! No boxed cake mixes or tub icings... just wonderful scratch made desserts. Working in this industry I have gotten quite spoiled.... so I went having pretty high expectations. Our Cruise did NOT dissapoint me, in the least!

These are just a few of the reasons why we all gained a couple pounds........

My hubby's apple dessert, he loves apple and cinnamon!





Warm Chocolate Melting Cake.... Classic! My Favorite!!!

 They ate ice cream a couple times a day

Dessert buffet.... yep that's my plate :)

My brother is in Medical School on St. Kitt's island, so we got to spend all day with him. That was my favorite thing about the cruise! He took us to this little cafe. It was very neat to see a different cultures take on pastries!                

A few of highlights of our cruise....

St. Kitts (One of the most Beautiful views we've ever seen)

Elle the Elephant

  So I really gave my little sister Maranda high expectations when I made my other sister, Leah, a shaped Lady bug (leah-bug) cake for her birthday. So Maranda says to me, "I want an elephant cake for my birthday!" So here it is.....
