Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

Wait...another space cake thread?!?

Maybe we can get a space cake forum going, since the scads of info seems much too difficult to find.


OK, since space cake fucks me up not in the least, where can I find -the best- regular pastry cake in Amsterdam? Better have good frosting, too.

Lanskroon?

A quaint coffee and cake shop across from the Marie Heinekenplein.
Not difficult to spot from a distance - they fly the rainbow flag.
My opinion, the best (non-space) cakes in all of Amsterdam.

OK sir try this. First buy say 5 Paradox space cakes. Now go to regular coffee shops and have a coffee. Eat your cake. Move on. Repeat this process till the cakes are gone or you are!
If you are not stoned/high/asleep by this point then you are immune. Met a guy like that once before in amsterdam. He ate a Paradox space cake and said it had no effect. He was a slimy cockney twat though so could have been lying.

Space cakes always hit me really hard.

A couple of years ago I munched 2 Paradox cakes before going into the airport. They came on all at once when I was in the security check queue before boarding. It was a bit white-knuckle for a bit, but once on the plane everything was perfect. A few glasses of champagne and then I settled into the most pleasant flight of my life back home.

Since I've ONLY tried a double dose, it might be time to up the ante and go for more. OR, I could just seek out the finest unadulterated pastry in Amsterdam to sugar-load on and enjoy the buzz I DO have, and prevent any chance of a whitey overtaking me.

Might be whitey-proof as well, as this has never occurred. Think the two can be related, or am I just a black hole of tolerance?

I challenge any and all acquaintances to do your best to discolor me.

I find that the effect of edibles are very much dependent on an individuals' tolerance.

While a heavy smoker may not find our muffins that strong, for a novice or occasional user a full cake can be quite an intense experience.

Just last week we had a guest in the hotel who was convinced he was going to die after having a cake for breakfast. He spent the first hour demanding we call an ambulance and when we refused he changed his plea to pizza!

We were happy to sort that out for him but by then he had spent an hour texting his last goodbyes to his family in Indonesia who were then on the phone to the hotel all day wondering what was going on.

He managed to had a good laugh about it the next day and will always have a proper Amsterdam story for his friends and family back home but at the time he was not a happy camper.

Nel, that would have finished me off. PMSL.

Ok Nimrod, I'll be your Huckleberry...
...although it's not my intent for you to experience a "whitey", just a mellow buzz.
I'll fine tune the recipe and dosage for mass destruction, then I'll be counting the days to see if you are in fact my Daisy...

Loving the Tombstone references. Thanks, Doc. I'll be looking forward to it.
