Did'nt get a slice of the Glorious Past! – I have seen rave reviews everywhere about this place, the reality though the times I have visited it in the last 2 or 3 years have been pretty underwhelming. The products can be a given a miss, and I have not had a piece I would stand in line again for there. This place is a waste of time and effort.

Not worth it. – I have gone to the Magnolia bakery about 4 times. I have even driven a hour (from westchester), just for the cupcakes. I honestly believe they used to be better (a couple of years ago, perhaps). The last time I was there, the cupcakes were so dry they actually tasted stale. I do like the frosting, but even that is not exceptional. I bought cupcakes for a kids party and the kids did not eat them because they were so bad. I was actually kind of embarrassed after I had raved about them (and travelled an hour to ... read more

Delicious Artery Clogging Desserts – This place is good but far from what it used to be. It has set the trend for how cupcakes are made in NY. There is even a bouncer here occasionally acting as the cupcake boss keeping folks from really packing the joint. If you must, get at least a baker's dozen so you can waste your money and add to that gut.

As seen "Lazy Sunday" – Chris Parnell and Andy Samberg stop for cupcakes enroute to hip-hop fame and "Narnia." "No doubt, that bakery's got all the bomb frosting. I love those cupcakes like McAdams loves Gosling."

Addictive cupcakes – Magnolia's is famous for its cupcakes that are uber sweet; you get cavities by just looking at them. After you eat here once, you will swear their slipping something addictive into their pastries. Anyone I know whose tried it, always goes back. And often. Its tiny but it has a friendly atmosphere. And even though there's basically no seating, there is a park across the street, so if the weather is good you don't have to worry about where your going to eat.

Magnolia bakery – I went to Magnolia bakery last October. I was there with a friend who lives there in NYC. They are also known for the banana pudding... loved it!! I would say go for the pudding over the icing overdosed cupcakes.. I did get those too. Very, very small bakery. I too did not like the self serve cupcakes where it was a frenzy when they put a new batch down. It was an interesting experience.. but don't go in there if you have a stroller.. no gettin' out of there!!

unsatisfied – I live in PA and i love coming to NYC so i decided to try an everfamous cupcake at the Magnolia Bakery. Well, im plain words-it SUCKED. Like almost every person before me had stated, it is dry, and the icing tastes like pure, griddy butter. I wouldn't recommend this slop to my worst enemy!
