"Enhanced" Wishes Dessert Party

Really let's face it Disney buffet desserts are very poor quality. These parties tend to just be more of the mass produced stuff that tastes more of chalk than chocolate. I never found the dessert parties to be a draw.

I've never been to one of these events, but from the pictures they seem to have ample options, far more than any buffet I've seen on site. You sure that's not just sour grapes talking? (or in this case, chalky chocolate)

I've never found the desserts to be anything to write home about at the current dessert party. But, the desserts were ok and the covered view away from the masses was the real appeal at $30. The new price is too much for me. I'll just watch the show from Town Square where I can usually show up 10 min before the show without issue. I hope those who are willing to pay have a great time. We will be saving up for the pirate firework cruise for when the boys are closer to 5.

It's not just Disney buffet deserts.. it's buffet buffets in general.. Whether it is Golden Corral, a casino, Hometown Buffet or any Chinese buffet, deserts are almost an after thought.. generally limited selection of stuff that is taken out of the freezer after a trip to Costco (or delivered in the back of a Sysco truck), plated up and put out on display.. Not many pastry chefs work at buffets..

I don't think it is sour grapes - if you are imply it is something I can't have and there just decide it isn't good (that's sour grapes right?) I've attended NYE at the California Grill ($525 a person) and Harambe Nights ($125 a person) and felt the same about the desserts there. I don't think I'm dissing the dessert because they are, as the fable goes, out of my reach. I dissing them because the are more akin to the Emporer's New Clothes.

I was simply asking as many people are going to go that route when they see the prices. No need to get defensive and flash the wallet. As I said, I've never been to this, so wouldn't know the quality.

By the way, I've known people in the Culinary CP at Disney. They do make the desserts themselves. Shame they're not better.

Sorry if you felt I was defensive - I was just honestly replying to your question which directly implied a lack of experience at Disney higher end dessert events and or a wallet issue ;)
