Buddy Valastro, star of the TLC television series ‘Cake Boss’ and ‘Next Great Baker’, is to supply his dessert collection onboard all of Norwegian Cruise Line’s ships.
Valastro recently opened a Carlo’s Bake Shop on the line’s latest newbuild Norwegian Breakaway and Norwegian Getaway. Over the next few weeks, Norwegian’s guests will be able to enjoy Carlo’s signature confections including cannolis, lobster tails, tiramisu and a variety of other unique cakes, cupcakes and Italian cookies. The desserts will be offered in each ship’s Java and Atrium Cafes and available to purchase from the à la carte menus.
“Our ‘family’ is growing and we couldn’t be happier,” said Valastro. “Partnering with Norwegian to launch Carlo’s onboard Norwegian Breakaway and Getaway was an incredible experience and now we are so excited that cruisers on any of Norwegian’s amazing ships will be able to enjoy our desserts during their vacations.”
Norwegian Epic will be the first ship to offer Carlo’s Bakery items onboard from 9 March, followed by Norwegian Dawn on 16 March, Norwegian Jewel on 23 March, Norwegian Star on 30 March and Norwegian Gem on 8 April. The remaining ships will offer Carlo’s items in the coming months.
“The Carlo’s Bake Shop cakes and pastries on Norwegian Breakaway and Norwegian Getaway have been a huge hit with our guests,” said Kevin Sheehan, Norwegian’s CEO. “We are thrilled to make Cruising like a Norwegian even sweeter now by offering Buddy’s incredible dessert creations to guests sailing on all of the ships in our fleet.”
