Decadent Desserts

Sweets fanatics, rejoice! Delta is bringing back its beloved Delta One dessert cart. The trolley of treats includes plated desserts, fruit and cheese plates, and a build-your-own ice cream sundae. Customers can indulge with items like opera cake with chocolate ganache; Cowgirl Creamery wagon wheel, Midnight Moon gouda, and grapes; and a vanilla ice cream sundae with a choice of toppings like whipped cream, cookie crumble, fruit compote and chocolate chips. 

The Delta One dessert cart is available on international flights; options vary depending on the city of departure. 

New Trips with New Sips

La Fête du Rosé

From the heart of St. Tropez, La Fête du Rosé is a premium rosé label produced by La Fête Wine Company in partnership with the prestigious winemakers of Château Saint-Maur. This pastel pink wine is perfectly balanced with a silky palate of vibrant strawberry grenadine and currant, ending with remarkable freshness. 

La Fête du Rosé is a Black-owned brand, and its founder Donae Burston works to advocate for underrepresented and underserved communities.  

La Fête du Rosé is available to Delta One customers on select flights.  

Tip Top Espresso Martini

Tip Top Proper Cocktails’ Espresso Martini is a strong and smooth cocktail made in partnership with Counter Culture Coffee. It boasts a delicious complexity from Counter Culture’s unique espresso blend and features rich notes of roasted coffee and vanilla bean. 

Tip Top has been Delta’s onboard cocktail partner since 2021 – and starting this year, the brand will bring on more cocktail flavors in a rotational program. Look forward to their popular cocktail selections, which will be phased in as the year progresses, and include classics like Tip Top’s Old Fashioned, Espresso Martini, Bee’s Knees, Negroni and more.
