Magnolia Bakery – The Lowdown
Magnolia Bakery catapulted to fame after Carrie Bradshaw nibbled on a pastel-topped cupcake while spilling the details of her privileged dating life to Miranda on a park bench on Sex and the City. Come summer, it’s not uncommon to see a line of tourists snaked around the corner of the iconic bakery’s Bleeker Street location, clamoring to get their hands on a buttery old-fashioned treat covered in pink vanilla buttercream with a daisy sugar topper. Opened in 1996, the West Village flagship has expanded to spots allover Manhattan, with another spot in Washington, D.C. Tip: pop on a pair of cobalt Manolo Blahniks and grab a $3.95 frosted treat, then channel your inner Ms. Bradshaw by perusing the stylish trinkets at the adjacent Bookmarc, then head a block west to rub shoulders with celebrities at nearby neighborhood hot spot, The Spotted Pig.
