Magnolia Bakery, West Village
Untitled
I have been a Magnolia fan for years… today was the first time I found out that it was on Sex and the City despite being a loyal fan of the show (perhaps I forgot that episode). The cupcakes are everything that you could possibly dream of and more… if indeed you are a cupcake lover. The cookbook is great and I make the birthday cake for very special b-days or cupcakes (same recipe) and they NEVER fail! One of my students described it as an orgasm in his mouth- not the response I was looking for bit I think you get the picture.
Tips-
- If it’s someone’s birthday and you stop by- they sell candles- what a thoughtful gift- sit in the park across the street and share:)
- If you want to make the cake or cupcakes- the recipe is online as well but remember that you need self-rising flour, way paper and three cake pans. Plus you may want to make extra frosting for a big cake.
Bring out of towners- great NYC experience
