Did you try the banana pudding? "To die for" hardly does it justice. My first NYC apartment was just around the corner from Magnolia--luckily, the horrendous lines dissuaded me from going TOO much!
I didn't actually get a cupcake when I was there in July (not a big fan of sugary sweet frosting) but I loved looking at all the adorable cupcakes, especially the 4th of July ones :) you're looks picture perfect!!
Camels & Chocolate - We didn't know about the banana pudding until after we left! Oh well, next time.
PoetessWug & Holly - Honestly, they kind of tasted like they were made with a cake mix and the frosting was a bit chemical-y tasting. We've had cupcakes from bakeries that make everything from scratch and obviously those are a lot better! They were pretty though... and our line up wasn't too bad.
We always stop at the Cupcake Cafe on our way through NYC...next time well have to head to the Magnolia Bakery, too. You can never have enough cupcakes!

ReplyDeleteMagnolia is a classic, but I have to say, Crumbs is the winner for me. But who am I kidding? I die for either...

ReplyDeleteCupcakes look delicious. If you're ever in L.A. make sure to visit Sprinkles in Beverly Hills and Big man cakes. Their cupcakes are great!
