Coming to New York City in May 2013

Norwegian Cruise Line announced today that Master Baker Buddy Valastro will open an extension of his family business, Carlo’s Bake Shop, on the new Norwegian Breakaway.

Cruise passengers can head to Deck 8 to Carlo’s Bake Shop to get their delicious treats, pre-order custom specialty cakes for celebrations such as birthdays and anniversaries or to join a cupcake decorating class.

Featured menu items will include freshly baked cookies, cakes and pies, such as Buddy’s famous Oreo, Dark Chocolate Mousse and Purple Groovy Fondant cakes; Italian butter cookies; biscottis; and an assortment of cupcakes. Luscious chocolate and vanilla cannolis, cream-filled lobster tails, and individual treats such as strawberry cheesecake, chocolate truffle and tiramisu round out the menu. The delectable goodies will be available for purchase à la carte.

Taste of the Region

“The New York area is known for its outstanding bakeries,” said Kevin Sheehan, Norwegian Cruise Line’s chief executive officer. “As with all features of this new incredible ship, we wanted to bring not just a taste of the region to our guests, but the very best out there. Buddy is known as the ultimate baker, so we knew he was the best choice for our new bakery on Norwegian Breakaway. We are thrilled to welcome Buddy to the Norwegian family.”
