Holland America plans Magnolia Bakery offering for Caribbean cruises
The cruise line will introduce the bakery’s Banana Pudding at sea while celebrating an anniversary for RelaxAway, Half Moon Cay.
Holland America Line has announced a partnership with Magnolia Bakery as the cruise company prepares to celebrate an anniversary of RelaxAway, Half Moon Cay, its private Bahamian island.
Guests sailing on Holland America’s Caribbean cruises in the 2026-27 season will be offered Magnolia Bakery’s Banana Pudding, according to the cruise line. The planned Banana Pudding Bar will be available in the Lido Market on every Holland America ship operating in the Caribbean and will be served once during each cruise.
Holland America said its chefs trained in New York City with Magnolia Bakery Chief Baking Officer Bobbie Lloyd. The training covered how to prepare and present the bakery’s signature dessert aboard the ships.
Lloyd said the Caribbean-season collaboration will be the first time Magnolia Bakery desserts are made available at sea.
