Magnolia Bakery Coming to Midtown
From the paper of record: “Another branch of this Greenwich Village bakery is to open in late September in Midtown: 1240 Avenue of the Americas (49th Street).” Oh boy.

seriously – i’ve never understood nyc’s fascination w/ cupcakes – they’re really not that great

I’ll still be walking east to 51st & 2nd avenue for my far superior Buttercup cupcakes. Which, incidentally, make for a great dessert after lunch at Pampano.

With that rent, the cupcakes should cost as much as Prada shoes..

It might be in the underground concourse there, where Burger King and Wendy’s are located. And a Subway shop, etc. (Did one of them close down a while back?)

I agree with mish. It’s very hard to enjoy sub standard (dry & boring) cupcakes, knowing full well, the most delicious, moist, inexpensive cupcakes are south in the city at Sugar Sunshine Sweet. I have refused on many occasions various cupcakes simply because they weren’t SSS. And I love cupcakes…

free magnolia cupcakes in my office snackroom presently. I’m not nitpicky about dryness, frosting, etc, as long as coworkers continue to buy them for me.
blah. i’ve never been a fan. i find their cupcakes dry and boring.
