What am I missing? – I have absolutely NO idea why this place gets such raves on Citysearch and similar sites; the cupcakes are not very impressive, unless all you care about is sweetness (there are ABSURDLY sweet). The workers are not the most polite, but that is almost to be expected at a place this popular, so I do not hold it against them. What boggles my mind is why this place is so popular; it is truly mediocre. To say it is overrated would almost be giving it a compliment; even if people did not line up to get in, I w... read more

Make them at home! – I did not actually go to the bakery, but I did find the recipe online and bake them at home. Easy to make, much cheaper, and delicious!

Don't believe the hype! – Joke! This place is a damn joke. I stood out in the cold because I was under the impression that Magnolia cupcakes were the best in town but they are not in the slightest. The cupcakes are like something from a Duncan Hines box and the icing is just crisco mixed with powered sugar and a hint of vanilla extract. I did buy a slice of the red velvet cake and found that to be nice. It was very flavorful with the right amount of cocoa but the buttercream icing doesn't do it any justice. It is too sweet a... read more

Totally Overrated Cupcakes – Totally overrated, overpriced, overiced, mediocre, dry cupcakes - consistently! I don't know why this place is so popular - the other desserts, e.g., banana pudding are ok, plus the whole shop is very nostalgic/comforting but on a busy night who wants to stand in that long line to get a proscribed limit of mediocre cupcakes?!!!

Easy Bake Oven Baked Goods Far SuperiorI – I'VE HAD BETTER CUPCAKES OUT OF MY EASY BAKE OVEN WHEN I WAS SIX! All jokes aside, I was seriously disappointed. I am a lover of all baked goods and had heard rave reviews about Magnolia's cupcakes. My hopes were dashed when I bit into a cupcake. YUCK! DRY, CRUMBLY, TASTELESS, SUGARY ICED, MUFFIN-LIKE CAKES. Haven't they heard of buttercream frosting? Their decorating leaves a lot to be desired too. Definitely nothing special. I guarantee your local supermarket bakes a better cupcak... read more

Totally worth the wait! – I really, really love the vanilla cupcakes with the pastel icing. The ones that have the mint green, yellow and pink icing are so delicious they send you right to heaven. It's the icing that makes these cupcakes taste more like little cakes that send orgasmic waves to your taste buds. I've purchased the vanilla cupcakes with chocolate icing and have not been impressed. The chocolate icing falls short when compared to the pastel icings and I've been repeatedly disappointed. Similarly, the chocolate c... read more
