Magnolia bakery cup cakes in United States - one of the must go dessert place when you visit New York!

After shopping and dinner at halal guys (one of the famous place to have cheap and good dinner at newyork. We had chicken over rice and it was AWESOME. Put more sauces but avoid the hot sauce as it's really really spicy! Try it for yourself if you have a brave heart!), we decided to drop by magnolia bakery for dessert. It's the bakery that made cup cakes really popular in New York. There are several branches around. Check out http://www.magnoliabakery.com/locations/

We went to the branch at:

Rockefeller Center

1240 Avenue of the Americas at 49th Street
New York, NY
Tel.: 212.767.1123
Store Hours: M-Th: 7am-10pm
F: 7am-12am / Sat: 8am-12am / Sun: 8am-10pm

This is how it looks like from the outside. 

We had a caramel cake, cup cakes and also ice cream sandwiches. 

I personally find it too sweet and I cannot finish the whole cake on my own. I would suggest sharing so that you would not feel like you have an overdose of sugar. I find the cup cakes better than the cakes and ice cream sandwiches. The cup cakes are soft and you experience different layers of taste when you eat them. The cream on top of the cupcake is not too sweet and it does make you want to eat more when you finish the first cup cake. 

Just down the road, you will reach a park where you can sit down and enjoy your dessert.
