    The banana pudding is amazing, it's texture, it's softness and the perfect swetness. Also the keylime cheesecake. This place has just a few chairs available to sit

    I have been going to Magnolia for years and never had any issues. The service was always great and the cupcakes were always fresh and delicious. The last couple of times I bought cupcakes, they were dry, the icing looked extremely sloppy. And, the workers are extremely rude and clearly have no interest in customer service.

    Wir sind dort hin um den Banana Pudding zu testen. Was soll ich sagen- der ist wirklich wirklich lecker. Den werden wir in Deutschland vermissen. Unbedingt probieren.

    Dear Magnolia Bakery Team, I wanted to share my disappointment with the recent changes to your cake offerings. After decades of buying your single cake slices — a ritual that began when Magnolia Bakery was truly a New York City icon since 1996 — I can no longer justify returning. The cakes you now serve are not the same as the ones that defined your bakery’s legacy. It’s unfortunate that the very products that built your reputation have been changed. Until you return to offering the original cakes that made Magnolia famous, I will not be purchasing single cake slices Sincerely, Ed Rivera

    So disappointed on my recent purchase ive tried magnolia cupcakes before but today my husband picked up some monster cupcakes i was really excited to try them because they have always been good and of course they looked cute but when i opened the box and took them out all of them were really small looks like they were baked in my kitchen i think i couldve done a better job and all of them were chocolate flavor i asked my husband why they only gave him chocolate flavor he said the lady told him thats all they had and was really rude and he is the type to ignore employees like that i had to throw them away because not only were they very small but also very dry almost 40 dollars for those small cupcakes i was extremely disappointed !!!!!!
