There is another Crumbs opening up in Midtown on Madison in between 52nd and 53rd… Any idea when it will be opening?

even though golden krust opened back in march, there is a sign for a “grand opening” on f 30 may from 12-4, promising music and free food.

p.s.: been lurking on the site from almost the beginning and want to thank zach and everyone else for helping me to survive in the wasteland.

Haven’t been to the other Crumbs locations, but the one near NYU was not impressive. The three times I’ve been there (see, I even gave them the benefit of the doubt), the cake seemed like it had been sitting around unwanted for a while and was very dry.

I agree that Cupcake Cafe is great – I’ve also ordered cakes from them for special occasions and they’ve been awesome. If you’re on 45th St, you can also take out cupcakes and desserts from My Most Favorite Food Company b/t 6th and 7th.

Sugar Sweet Sunshine is without a doubt the best cupcakes in the city and if you haven’t tried their lemon or pistachio or pumpkin cupcakes, you’re so missing out because those 3 are their best stuff. I gained about 25 pounds from those darn cupcakes……sigh

Crumbs is pretty okay. They’re the standard birthday fare in the office. My only real complaint is that there’s so much icing on those things that I now have to take an insulin shot every day.

Little Pie Company, people!! The carrot cake one with cream cheese frosting is not to die for – it’s to KILL for.

I’m not much of a Crumbs fan. Like Joyce, I, too, am more a purist when it comes to cupcakes. The wacky, crazy candy topped frosting turns me the hell off. But with that said, I’ve grown to really like Cupcake Cafe. I enjoy the buttery taste of their frosting and now scrape off the sugary frostings of all the other cupcakes.

Eccles Cake would kill a cupcake…….even if the cupcakes deformed pal, the muffin, joined in.

i used to get cupcakes from the Crumbs on the UWS (79th and amsterdam?) .. they were tasty and creative. Had no idea they’d graduated to a midtown location. I can’t stand that buttery aftertaste that some of these shi-shi cupcake cafes churn out, so you can imagine how tickled i was with Crumbs’ THICK sugary sweet frosting layer. Big ups to the Oreo option.
