harryw Posted February 9, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I was recently on the Nieuw Statendam and with so many dessert choices at the Lido Market, time slipped away and I didn’t try the cupcakes, which are a favorite dessert. How are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted February 9, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I've found they vary, probably depending on the pastry chef on the ship at the time. On one cruise they were delicious, and I had a small 'birthday party' many days, using a cupcake and some ice cream. On the next cruise, they weren't worth the calories & sugar. I was very disappointed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMLincoln Posted February 9, 2019 #3 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I find the muffins better than the cupcakes, especially the chocolate muffins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amen to the chocolate muffins. If you scoop a bit out of the top to create an indentation, you can add a scoop of ice cream to the top and some sprinkles for a great dessert.

Krazy Kruizers Posted February 9, 2019 #5 Share Posted February 9, 2019 The cup cakes vary by ship and pastry chef. Some are excellent -- some very dry. One time we were on the Nieuw Amsterdam and I looked forward to having a cup cake at lunch time. We were on the Nieuw Amsterdam a year later -- different pastry chef -- dry cup cakes. As to the chocolate muffins -- YUM!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about a bit of caramel sauce and whipped cream too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
