I'm a fairly big Sex and the City fan, but I guess not big enough because I don't remember the episode(s) with Magnolia Bakery that everyone keeps
telling me about. I'm going to NYC in September and I have a friend meeting me out there...she was like we have to go to Magnolia Bakery and create our own
Sex and the City tour (we aren't gonna do the official tour).

They have super yummy cupcakes.
Sorry- can't help with episodes or anything but now I want a cupcake. |

Magnolia Bakery isn't all that great. Try Sugar Sweet Sunshine instead.
As for the SatC reference, I think they just stood in line for Magnolia in one episode and then VOILA! Magnolia became trendy or whatever. |

Magnolia isn't that good. It's like Sprinkles in LA, a lot of hype for not very good stuff.

Magnolia's frosting is what makes it delicious.

Isn't that the episode where they stood in line and Carrie bought Samantha a brownie? I feel like it's season four where Carrie is avoiding Nina Katz.

Oh awesome, thanks!
I just looked on their website and their cupcakes are only $3. I thought they would be like almost $5 or something with it being NYC. Sprinkles are $3.95 I think. They are pretty big, though. |

Yeah, I don't even know if they mention the name of it or anything, Miranda and Carrie just sit on a bench outside of it eating cupcakes.

Has anyone done the SATC tour? Where else do they take you besides the bakery, Carrie's apartment, and the pleasure chest?

When I had Magnolia Cupcakes in NY, they were so dry! Not worth $3 bucks.

I loved Magnolia cupcakes when I was there three years ago! I feel like they were $2.50 then, though.

Every time I've gone, they've had pumpkin cupcakes. Well worth the $3 in my mind.
