If you follow my Blog you already know about my obsession with desserts…especially cupcakes! A cupcake is one of the most perfect desserts. Not only are they delicious, but they are the perfect hand held treat for wedding receptions. I have been a long time fan of Magnolia Bakery since we began traveling to New York City back in 1997, and I was so excited when they finally opened here in Chicago this month. Yes, they have amazing cupcakes, but my absolute favorite treat at Magnolia is their Banana Pudding. If you have never had banana pudding you must try it. Delicious vanilla pudding layered with fresh bananas and vanilla wafers…so simple but so incredibly good. I have waited in line many times for this in New York and will happily do the same here in Chicago. It’s just that good!
Magnolia Bakery Chicago is located at 108 N. State Street at Block 37. www.magnoliabakery.com Enjoy!
