Magnolia Cupcakes - Bake Sale Heaven
Sound familiar? Bake sales are one of the most common ways to raise money for projects.
This week we are hosting a virtual bake sale for charity! Have a favorite cause? Tell us about it and make a bake sale lens for them!
So what is Magnolia? And what does that have to do with a bake sale?
Store bought? Really?
Yes. Except if they're from Magnolia. In my virtual cupcake universe, I'd sell cupcakes from Magnolia so everyone can have some.
Are they too sweet? Yes. Are they too much? Maybe.
A Magnolia chocolate cupcake with chocolate frosting. A glass of milk. Heaven? Maybe.
Where is this magical place?
New York City!
Maybe it's the impending sugar rush that gets me confused...
Why does this place sound so familiar?
Because it was featured on SNL!

Store bought is so yummy!

Some of the best are "homemade" and then sold through a local outlet...the best of both worlds! Check out my Cake Walk lens for more yummy ideas!

I'm really quite addicted to a few mixes. It's not quite as easy doing allergen free from scratch. I've found some really, really, delicious ready-to-bake stuff.

Store-bought cakes can be absolutely delicious if the company makes them from scratch or if they use a good cake mix. Some of the mixes available today are indistinguishable from a scratch recipe.

Milk please!
Been to Magnolia? Overrated or just right?
Is it on your list of things to do next time you're in NYC?

- I'd never heard of Magnolia Cupcakes before, but I must admit that cupcakes seem to be the hottest commodity -- seen the cupcake wedding cake -- and love the idea of cupcakes for entertaining. Just the right size dontcha know!
