Today I really had a strong craving for cupcakes. Betty Crocker in a box cupcakes just wouldn’t do. And so, I convinced the hubby to shuffle along with me to Manhattan’s Upper West Side (about 40 minutes away from us in today’s nasty weather), just to get a piece of the Magnolia Bakery’s claim to fame. I specifically went to the Upper West Side location because I figured that location would be the least likely to have a ridiculous line.
Something that I forgot to mention in the video: the vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting are the best! The chocolate frosted cupcake I was eating in the video was yummy, but mm mm mm, the vanilla cupcake was probably the most perfect cupcake I’d ever tasted, moist but not mushy and just sweet enough, except that the frosting almost gave me a toothache it was so sweet.

Great job and YUMMY!!!!
Great job next time I am in New York I am so going to get one.
So cute! I had many a Magnolia Cupcake when I lived in the city! We would always get them for birthdays at the office!
Great first Vlog!
Very cute! Now I’m hungry!
Frosting too sweet? Impossible! Haven’t been to the UWS location yet but looks like it might be roomier than the downtown one. Thanks for a sweet video!
