The Rangers squad celebrated their title success on Sunday, which is Gerrard’s first trophy since arriving in Govan.
The manager spoke of his hunger to go and win more trophies after Rangers put three past St Mirren on Sunday and Laudrup believes that a taste of success will spur this Rangers side on to bigger and better things.
Speaking to the Daily Mail he said: “The exciting thing is that it may just be the first chapter under the outstanding management of Steven Gerrard. I honestly believe this team can become even better and deliver more trophies to Rangers. The future looks very bright.
“Make no mistake, this team will go down in history. Some players might move on from Rangers, some might go and earn more money and have fantastic careers in different countries, but will they ever experience anything quite like this again? I'm not sure that's possible. As I said, this is unique. It will stay with them forever.
“I loved looking at clips of the dressing room celebrations after Saturday's win over St Mirren. It doesn't matter whether you are a young player or an older head, when you are able to enjoy something like that you want to experience it again. It's absolutely addictive.
“That's what I mean about this, in one way, just being the start. There is still the Scottish Cup to come this year before the hunger for next season. The demands at Ibrox are always there.”
Laudrup was also full of praise for Gerrard and the success he has brought to Ibrox.

“I have never actually met him. But I hope that someday when we go back to Scotland, I can shake his hand and congratulate him in person,” he added.
“To me, he sums up that old statement about form being temporary and class being permanent.
“Gerrard had to go through a process to reach this point but he has proven he can win playing a style of football that I find a delight to watch."
“Already a legend among Liverpool fans, he deserves the adoration he will now receive from the blue half of Glasgow.”
