Buttercream overload! – You can smell the goodness from blocks away. The place is cute with limited seating, there's always a crowd. Get a cupcake to go, because one is all you need to get your daily requirement of sugar and butter.

Delicious banana pudding – Lots of goodies here, especially the banana pudding with vanilla wafers. You're not going to see Jared from Subway fame eating here anytime soon.

Magnolia's got Nuttin on Buttercup! – With all of the hype over Magnolia bakery, I decided to try it. I was let down. If you are looking for a good cupcake, I recommend Buttercup Bake Shop, which the founder of Magnolia now owns. It has MUCH better food, and better prices. Magnolia is not as exciting as I'd hoped! The shop is also TINY and the staff RUDE. The cupcakes are self serve as well, which is disgusting. Everyone touching, sneezing, coughing... gross.

better yet to come – well, after hearing wonderful things about this place, i went expecting something wonderful. there was plenty of evidence of homebaking, but the 'grandma's kitchen' vibe was lost with the added touch of the 'cool kids' serving you behind the counter. the cupcakes looked good, but tasted like they were made of pre-packaged mix. the banana pudding was lovely, although tasted like it was at least a day old. it's an expensive place...$4 for a cup of pudding.....nah. great place to go to occasionally, but you... read more

The Cupcake Nazis!!! – The Cupckake Nazis! Proof of concept that if you make a second or third rate product, overcharge for it and cop some attitude along the way then people will come in droves. Firstly the icing on the babies are sickeningly sweet. The cake itself is a rather dry affair(akin to antacid tablet perhaps). Oddly enough there are four or so different colors of frosting without any taste distinction between them. Blue tastes like the red - aghh food coloring! The people behind the counter are too cool for school... read more

I'll have three stale cupcakes please! – I have watched them remove the cupcakes from the oven and still they taste like they've been sitting around for days?! Not enough oil, water-based?? Anything else I've tried, and I've tried to like something there as I live just a few minutes away, tastes either too sweet or tasteless. I'd rather eat my own hair.

Best cupcakes ever – I always take friends here when I want to show them around the city. Buy a cupcake or two and eat it in the park nearby. The icing is buttery rich, not crunchy sugary like other icings, and the cake part is deliciously spongey. Fantastic variety of cupcakes, try them all!

Delicious, Divine, Deadly – It's true, Magnolia Cupcakes are divine. If you're a tourist looking for a slice of New York City nightlife encapsulated in a place that looks like your ole southern grandma's kitchen, then you should go to Magnolia. The pale green interior and the coconut flocked cakes will bring you back to a kinder, gentler era. And the cupcakes will leave you hallucinating in a fog of sugary delight. The service, on the other hand, can be lacking, though I think they fired the guy who could easily have been cr... read more

You Have to Have One Sweet Tooth! – I recently tried the banana pudding and their "to die for" cupcakes"......the banana pudding should not be overlooked but Out of the Kitchen Bakery on Hudson St. blows their cupcakes away. The icing at Magnolia is wayyyy to sweet- like eating pure sugar. Cute little place, nice staff.
