Last week, I was in New York for the day to see a good friend of mine who was on business in the city for a few days. I have to say in life we come across a few people that touch us and no matter how long we do not see that person there is always a connection. This friend of mine I have known since I was 18 years old at Art School. Most of our lives we have lived on different continents and yet when we see one another it is if time has stood still. So, there we were with only a few hours to spend together and one of the first things we did was head down to Magnolia Bakery in the village.
For any of you who do not know about Magnolia Bakery this is the time to get to know!!!!!! Wow! I am not a big cake person but I have a thing for cupcakes. There tucked away is a little corner bakery that does not look like much from the outside but boy oh boy this is one case of not to judge a book by its cover!!!!
The line of people waiting to get there fix goes on all day long... and let me tell you its well worth the wait.... and the calories!
The cupcakes are orgasmic and so is the banana pudding they are famous for.
My advice to you. If you are ever in NYC take the time to seek out a Magnolia Bakery closest to you. They have three different locations in the city.... and not to mention their own recipe book too.
mmmmh!! My mouth is watering just thinking of it all!
